To Please Jesus in ALL Areas of our Lives |
1 Thessalonians 5:23 New Living
Translation
Now may the God of peace make you holy in every way, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless until our Lord Jesus Christ comes again.
Now may the God of peace make you holy in every way, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless until our Lord Jesus Christ comes again.
John 14:20 "In that (this
day) day you will know that I am in My Father, and you in me, and
I in you.
John 17:22-23 "The glory
which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, just as
We are one; I in them and You in Me,
So we start with scriptures that speak of the unity the
believer has with the Father Son and Holy Spirit.
This has been accomplished through the regeneration of the
new birth and is the fulfillment of the statements Jesus made while speaking to
the father.
John 14:16-17 I will ask the
Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may be with you
forever; that is the Spirit of truth,
whom the world cannot receive, because it does not see Him or know Him, but you
know Him because He abides with you and will be in you.
This was a precursor of what was going to happen when one is
born again and came to pass after the ascension of Christ.
1 Corinthians 12:13 For by one
Spirit are we all baptized into one body (the corporate body of Christ). By
this act the Holy Spirit is fully immersed into the spirit of the believer and
whereas before He was the one who convicted us and brought us to Christ He now
is the Helper that enables us to serve Christ.
1 Corinthians 6:19 New Living
Translation
Don't you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself.
Don't you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself.
All these scriptures lead up to one thing and that is God
the Holy Spirit is dwelling in your body in your spirit. Do you get it? I
repeat do you get it. This is reality. The third member of the Godhead who in
the beginning was actively creating the universe now dwells within you.
Too many people do not either know this or they ignore the
relationship they have with the Almighty. Understanding this do you dare to
premeditatedly, wittingly, willfully, calculatingly, consciously and by design,
sin?
I had to ask myself if I took my relationship with my maker
as serious as I should. I shan’t tell you my conclusion but after giving it
much thought I realized I needed to make big time changes. I just thought about
it for I wasn’t bold enough to ask God His opinion about it.
Your spirit is the utmost factor in your being and your life
force both spiritual and psychologically is dependent upon its condition before
God.
Proverbs 4:23 Above all else, guard your heart
(spirit), for everything you do flows from it. Are you getting everything you
should from this relationship with the Holy Spirit?
awesome, bless you.
