God Is Your Shield and Reward | Trusting God's Promises in Uncertain Times


Sure! I watched the video you shared (“Why You Must Stay in the Spirit” by Apostle Joshua Selman) — it's a powerful and deep message about the importance of remaining spiritually connected in order to walk in God's fullness.

Here’s a blog post based on the video that you can use for your site or blog:

Why You Must Stay in the Spirit – Lessons from Apostle Joshua Selman

In a world full of distractions, noise, and spiritual dryness, remaining in the Spirit is no longer optional—it is essential. Apostle Joshua Selman, in his deeply insightful message, reminds believers that our walk with God cannot be sustained by the flesh, emotions, or religious activity alone. The true Christian life is one lived in the Spirit—sensitive, surrendered, and constantly aligned with the heart of God.

The Spirit: Our Channel of Life

Apostle Selman opens the message by emphasizing that everything that makes the Christian life victorious and meaningful flows from the Spirit. Without staying connected to the Holy Spirit, we run the risk of becoming dry, directionless, and vulnerable to the enemy's attacks.

“When you are out of the Spirit, you are out of alignment with God’s will.”

Staying in the Spirit is like staying connected to a source of water in the middle of a desert—it’s life or death.

Why Do Many Believers Struggle Spiritually?

Apostle Selman explains that many believers are frustrated because they are trying to achieve spiritual results with carnal methods. They are praying without discernment, serving without sensitivity, and making decisions without spiritual counsel.

The result? Spiritual burnout, confusion, and vulnerability.

“You must stay in the Spirit to interpret seasons, to hear God’s voice clearly, and to avoid satanic traps.”

How to Stay in the Spirit

  1. Consistent Prayer Life
    Prayer is not just a religious act—it’s your lifeline to heaven. Prayer opens your spirit to divine instructions and strengthens your spiritual senses.

  2. Engage the Word of God
    The Word is spirit and life (John 6:63). Apostle Selman emphasizes the importance of feeding on scripture daily to keep your spirit aligned with God.

  3. Walk in Obedience
    Staying in the Spirit means being sensitive to God’s voice and quick to obey His instructions, even when they don't make sense.

  4. Guard Your Environment
    Who you listen to and surround yourself with can either build your spirit or weaken it. Stay in an atmosphere that encourages the presence of God.

Final Thoughts

Your destiny is spiritual. Your purpose is spiritual. Your warfare is spiritual. So how can you afford to live outside the Spirit?

This message from Apostle Joshua Selman is a wake-up call to every believer: If you must walk in power, purpose, and peace—you must stay in the Spirit.
