Inspiration As a Gateway to Manifestation
Inspiration is not simply motivation or encouragement; it is a divine stirring—a powerful prompting within your spirit that activates your will to take action.
"And such as do wickedly against the covenant shall he corrupt by flatteries: but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits." (Daniel 11:32)
Knowing God imparts a special kind of knowledge—one that empowers and compels you to act. This knowledge is not passive or theoretical; it is alive and dynamic. You must be in a certain place spiritually before you can do what God has called you to do.
There exists within you an ideal spiritual version (your divine potential) that must be revealed and awakened through this knowledge. The more clearly you see this ideal, the more your life aligns to manifest it.
"Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure." (Philippians 2:12–13)
It is your responsibility to actively work out the divine deposits God has placed within you. The word “will” here has multiple nuances in the original Greek:
1.Boulomai — Wishful Thinking
This is a passive desire, a longing that does not translate into action. Many remain stuck here, wanting change but never pursuing it seriously.
2.Thelema — The Will to Act
a) Determination
Action arises from clear, decisive resolve. When you make a firm decision, God often meets you there with speed and grace to help you move forward.
b) Desire
"As he loved cursing, so let it come unto him: as he delighted not in blessing, so let it be far from him." (Psalm 109:17)
A deep, heartfelt longing that fuels persistent pursuit. When you truly delight in something, God draws near and strengthens you to pursue it.
c) Settled Intent to Resolve
Deciding to act is one step; remaining consistent in your decision is another. Many start well but falter; few persist with steadfastness, and it is this persistence that aligns you with God’s manifesting power.
"And the Spirit of the Lord began to move him at times in the camp of Dan between Zorah and Eshtaol." (Judges 13:25)
The word “move” here means to stir or trouble by inciting one to action. When your will is properly aligned with God anchored in desire and determination, He stirs you to take the next step.
