Quarantine in the Secret Place


Paul called by God, was quarantined in Arabia for 3 years to receive revelations from the Holy Spirit. Galatians 1:17, “I did not go up to Jerusalem to see those who were apostles before I was, but I went into Arabia. Later I returned to Damascus. Galatians 1:11, “I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that the gospel I preached is not of human origin. I did not receive it from any human source, nor was I taught it; rather, I received it by revelation from Jesus Christ.”

If you are prepared for greater work (2 Tim. 2:20-21), God will quarantine you in the secret place in order to give you revelation. Quoted by a great man of God, “One has to deal with the Holy Spirit secretly in the hidden place. The flesh has to be locked outside, and the Holy Spirit locked into.”


It is in the secret place that God will cleanse, refine and purify His earthly vessel so that the Spirit of Glory and of God will rest on him (1 Peter 4:14). Then he will be a vessel of honour to walk, and be led by the Spirit of God (Romans 8:14). And to work with God in Oneness to do greater things (John 10:37-38, 14:11).


Excellent teaching by Ps John Anosike, “What to do when you are in the Wilderness:-

Watchman Nee:- “The works of the Holy Spirit are done through man’s spirit while the works of the enemy are all done through man’s sinful flesh.”


The Bible says that there are three kinds of people; the Carnal (1 Corinthians 3:1-3), the Soulish (1 Corinthians 2:14) and the Spiritual (1 Corinthians 2:11). 


1 Corinthians 3:1-3 (The Carnal)

“Brothers and sisters, I could not address you as spiritual but as worldly–mere infants in Christ. I gave you milk, not solid food, for you were not yet ready for it. Indeed, you are still not ready. You are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and quarreling among you, are you not worldly? Are you not acting like mere human beings?”


1 Corinthians 2:14 (The Soulish)

“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.”


1 Corinthians 2:11, 14 (The Spiritual)

“For who knows a person's thoughts except that person's own spirit within? In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. 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.”


Let us aim to be spiritual Christians! The ones who lean not on human comprehension, but rather operating from the Spirit of God that is within us.


God bless!
