I was brought up in many different denominations and this is in no wise hinting that you need some spiritual gift to be considered spirit filled. I have met fine and terrible people in each denomination.
Spirituality and the Three Little Pigs… Scripture - Whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. – Matthew 7:24-25
Once upon a time there was a mother pig who did not have enough food to feed her little pigs. So when they were old enough, she sent them out into the world to seek their fortunes.
The first little pig was very lazy and built his house out of straw.
The second little pig was a little more diligent and built his house out of sticks.
They sang and danced and played together the rest of the day.
Meanwhile the third little pig worked hard and built his house with bricks. It was a sturdy house complete with a fine fireplace and chimney.
The next day, a wolf happened to pass by and began to hunger pork for his next meal. He stopped by the first two houses and said… “Little pig! Little pig! Let me in! Let me in!” In which the replies were… “No! No! No! Not by the hairs on my chinny chin chin!” Then the wolf showed his teeth and said: “Then I'll huff! And I'll puff! And I'll blow your house down.”
So he huffed and he puffed and he blew the house down. The wolf opened his jaws wide and bit down as hard as he could, but the first pig escaped and met up with the second pig, whose house was a little sturdier. Having the wood house blew down the two pigs escaped together. The wolf chased them down the lane and almost caught them. But they made it to the brick house and slammed the door closed before the wolf could catch them. The three little pigs they were very frightened, they knew the wolf wanted to eat them. And that was very true. The wolf hadn't eaten all day and he had worked up a large appetite chasing the pigs around and now he could smell all three of them inside and he knew that they would make a lovely feast. He stopped by the house of brick and said… “Little pigs! Little pigs! Let me in! Let me in!” In which the replies were… “No! No! No! Not by the hairs on our chinny chin chin!” Then the wolf showed his teeth and said: “Then I'll huff! And I'll puff! And I'll blow your house down.”
He puffed and he huffed. And he huffed, huffed, and he puffed, puffed; but he could not blow the house down. At last, he was so out of breath that he couldn't huff and he couldn't puff anymore. So he stopped to rest and thought a bit with rage and swore he would come down the chimney and eat up the little pigs for supper. But while he was climbing on to the roof the little pigs made up a blazing fire and put on a big pot full of water to boil. Then, just as the wolf was coming down the chimney, the little piggy pulled off the lid, and plop! In fell the wolf into the scalding water. So the little piggy put on the cover again, boiled the wolf up, and that was the end of their fearsome adversary.
Interpretation. The houses are three…
1. The Straw House – Salvation – Salvation is great… But you need to start building a second house
2. The Wood House – Sanctification – Offers a little more protection… But you need to move on to a third house
3. The Brick House – The Holy Spirit – Offers the utmost protection… A wonderful fortress in the times of storm
