We also are Triune : Spirit, Soul and Body |
The word SOZO translated into
English means Saved, and we usually consider Saved means to be Born Again in our
Spirit.
However in the original
Greek language it has a deeper meaning that takes in the entire person: SPIRIT, SOUL
and BODY.
When Jesus died and rose
again, he enabled us to experience Salvation in our spirit, also Healing for
our human body, and healing for our Soul (soul defined as “Mind, Will and Emotions.”)
The soul is in your Head Your spirit is in your Heart ! |
Some Christians in error
believe the soul is what gets spiritually saved, but the truth is that our soul is in our
head. (Our Mind, Will and Emotions).
The spirit is in our heart.
The spirit is in our heart.
Our will must be given to
Jesus first before we act on our own.
Not my will but thine be done! We struggle with our emotions our fears and self doubts and our soul is in need to be redeemed.
Not my will but thine be done! We struggle with our emotions our fears and self doubts and our soul is in need to be redeemed.
Romans 12:2
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is
that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
This
is where the Word of God comes in and reading our Bible is important to renew
our mind. It is important to Memorize portions of scripture that speak to you and say them with your mouth to yourself when in trouble. It is good to hear yourself say God's word.
So many of us hurt in our
physical body, and although we realize that Jesus wants us well and healthy but
this brings us a definite struggle when we do not immediately receive a miracle
for our body.
Those who walk in miracle
ministry tell us that as we seek the presence of Jesus that we enter into the
supernatural where miracles happen.
We cry “How long?” and God
answers back, “It takes time for a birth and I am developing it.”

As I was reading the words of Christ to His disciples popped into my mind, "The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak." How long indeed, sister. Deep post... early thinking is painful! (kidding!)
This was wonderful, Hazel. It's interesting to me that we are actually created in the image of God - and we do indeed possess body, soul, and spirit. I like the idea that the *real me* will never die!
I also like the idea that God is *birthing* something in me - a new creation - fashioned to look like His Son! May it be so!
GOD BLESS!
