Spiritual Sense. by ichuka(op):
Solid food belongs to those who are of full age,that is,those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.(Hebrews 5:14).

In our natural,physical man we have five senses.We have our sight,hearing,smell,taste and touch.Those are the five senses of our physical natural life.But there is also an inner man called the"hidden man of the heart,"and that inward man has what corresponds to the outer man's five senses. There is a faculty of spiritual sight,of spiritual hearing, of spiritual smelling or sensing,of spiritual taste and spiritual touch,and these senses are very important to the life of the inward man–yes, more important even than the senses of the physical man.

We know how we feel the tragedy of people who have lost any of those outward senses.It is a great loss;it is an imperfect life,a life of limitation.But it is equally true of the inward man.To be without spiritual sight is a tragic loss and a terrible limitation;or without spiritual hearing,that capacity for answering to the Spirit –"he that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith":if there is no capacity for hearing,that is a desperate situation.
What loss there is if there is no sensing – sensing as in the matter of smell, so that you at once scent things.I know how wrongly that has been used,in an everlasting attempt to scent heresy and fault and wrong, but there is a right faculty of spiritual scent which is very important.I believe it was to that that reference was made concerning our Lord "His scent shall be in the fear of the Lord"(Isa. 11:3,)
quick of scent,right on the mark in scenting what the Lord wanted.And how true it was of His heavenly life:
what it saved Him to scent the enemy and what the enemy was up to,to scent what the Father wanted and when He did not want things.It is important to be quick of scent.And so with our taste and with our touch – our contact, and what we register by contact.This is a very real inward man,and these are the senses which form the basis of spiritual capacity:these are the things to be exercised,to be"put through it"for increase and development.

"For even by the time you ought to be teachers,
you have need of one to teach you again what is the beginning of the principles of the oracles of God;
and you have become those having need of milk, and not of solid food.
"
- Hebrews 5:12

"I gave you milk to drink.
I didn't give you solid food because you weren't ready for it.
Even now you aren't ready for it
"
- 1 Corinthians 3:2

Not necessarily food for all because for some, it'll be milk

I believe in the existence of the inward man of the heart (spirit man). but I do have a question and it goes like this- how can we activate those senses that you mentioned like senses of hearing? I know that when a person is born on earth, he is born with the five senses. but talking of the inward man, I think this senses can only be activated by the spirit of God. Christ said in his word " At the last days I will your out my spirit upon all flesh, and your old man shall dream dreams, your daughters shall prophesy, young men shall see vision. And I also believe that these senses can be sharpened and made more quick to discern.

Same way by birth a child have five senses.
Also in spiritual birth.
By spiritual birth u have all the senses by RIGHTH.
It's yours when you became born anew
Same way u sharpen your physical sense by eating good food also applies to ur spiritual sense by study of the Word and payers daily.

You dont activate any spiritual sense it's yours by virtue of being born again.
It's your right by birth.
