WORDSPIRATION
The enfired spirit man is simply engaging a passionate drive as dictated by the reckless love of God. Men of passion, walking with compounded love have their spirit ignited with the Holy Ghost. Passion is the driving force of destiny. To be enfired in your spirit man is to be fueled by scriptural gas. With kingdom passion, you are empowered to Make a difference. The fire of God's word stirs up a new passion in the life of a believer going somewhere to happen. Passion is key to motion and motion is key to accomplishment. You cannot be set on fire and remain stagnated. You require meekness, that is faithfulness, availability and teachability to run with kingdom passion. This is what makes success sustainable. This month you shall be enfired in your spiritman, leading to successful outcomes.
First Witness: The Father
The first proof Jesus offers to confirm his leadership role is the witness of God the Father. He told his hearers, “And the Father who sent me has himself borne witness about me” (John 5:37a).
What did Jesus mean? He was speaking about the Father's stamp of approval—an affirmation that God issued publicly, immediately after Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist. In Matthew's gospel
we read:
And when Jesus was baptized, immediately he went up from the water, and behold, the heavens were opened to him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and coming to rest on him; and behold, a voice from heaven said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased” (Matthew 3:16-17).

TODAYS SCRIPTURE READING
1 Corinthians 2
New International Version
2 And so it was with me, brothers and sisters. When I came to you, I did not come with eloquence or human wisdom as I proclaimed to you the testimony about God.[a] 2 For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified. 3 I came to you in weakness with great fear and trembling. 4 My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power, 5 so that your faith might not rest on human wisdom, but on God’s power.
God’s Wisdom Revealed by the Spirit
6 We do, however, speak a message of wisdom among the mature, but not the wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing. 7 No, we declare God’s wisdom, a mystery that has been hidden and that God destined for our glory before time began. 8 None of the rulers of this age understood it, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. 9 However, as it is written:
“What no eye has seen,
what no ear has heard,
and what no human mind has conceived”[b]—
the things God has prepared for those who love him—
10 these are the things God has revealed to us by his Spirit.
The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God. 11 For who knows a person’s thoughts except their own spirit within them? In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. 12 What we have received is not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may understand what God has freely given us. 13 This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, explaining spiritual realities with Spirit-taught words.[c] 14 The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit. 15 The person with the Spirit makes judgments about all things, but such a person is not subject to merely human judgments, 16 for,
“Who has known the mind of the Lord
so as to instruct him?”[d]
But we have the mind of Christ.
