We must have a supernatural perspective

Dr. Roberto Miranda
(Audio: Español)

RESUMEN: In this sermon, the speaker discusses the differences between a natural mentality and a supernatural mentality. He explains that our mentality is like a program that determines the possibilities of our experiences with God and the world. To expand our experiences, we need to broaden our mental space and expectations. The speaker uses examples from the Bible, including Isaiah 54 and 1 Corinthians 2, to illustrate his points. He emphasizes that Christianity is not just a religion of doctrine but is based on the person of Christ Jesus and the actions of God. The goal is to have a mindset that is oriented towards the internal and the supernatural, rather than the external and the natural.

The foundation of Christianity is not just doctrine, but a person - Christ Jesus - and the acts of God recorded in the Bible. It's important to have an experience with the power and reality of the Holy Spirit before focusing on teaching and doctrine. The encounter with God should lead to introspection and interpretation. The Christian life requires confrontations and experiences with the power of God, which is then followed by knowledge and understanding. Paul emphasized the crucified Christ to break the addiction to reason and intellect, and to think in supernatural terms. The natural man cannot understand the things of the spirit, but the spiritual person can navigate the mysteries of the spirit and also understand intellect and science. Christians should hunger and thirst for deeper things of the spirit.


In this sermon, the speaker encourages Christians to cultivate a hunger and thirst for deeper spiritual understanding. He emphasizes that God does not want us to be ignorant of spiritual things and calls for a shift away from superficial faith.

Using the example of the woman who anointed Jesus with expensive perfume, the speaker contrasts her supernatural mentality with Simon the Pharisee's robotic, religious mind. He argues that the mind sanctified and broken by the spirit of God is a fluid mind that can immediately enter into tune with the heart of God.

The speaker urges Christians to cultivate the mind of Christ, which will allow them to understand the deep heart of God and navigate a world of conflict and opposition. He concludes by emphasizing the importance of faith founded on the power of God rather than human wisdom.


The world has created a rational, materialistic mindset that prevents the power of God from flowing through us. God wants a church that exemplifies His power to oppose this model and show the world another alternative. We need to transform our minds and adopt a supernatural mentality, asking God to give us experiences, revelations, and interventions of power. We declare lives of power, transformation, and the fullness of the reality of God's power. Amen.


I want to invite you to look in your Bibles at First Corinthians, Chapter 2, and I want to continue this exploration of what we call the Holy Spirit-filled life.

And I want to remind you, last Sunday I think it was, yes, last Sunday, we were talking about the differences between the merely religious life and the life in the spirit, what is the formal, superficial religion, and what is the vibrant and living spirituality that God wants us to live.
