CARE WELL FOR YOUR SPIRIT, SOUL, AND BODY

God bless you for taking your time to study.

TOPIC: CARE WELL FOR YOUR SPIRIT, SOUL, AND BODY

TEXT: 1 THESSALONIANS 5:22-24   

WEDNESDAY AUGUST 3rd

Key verse: 3 John 1:2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.
What today's reading text is saying is that the three persons in a man-the spirit, the soul, and the body, should be well cared for and well preserved. We know that it is the responsibility of God to preserve us blameless to the end and we always pray to God for this. However, we also share in this responsibility. This makes it a dual responsibility. If we do our part well God will surely do His. It is a covenant. It is an agreement between you and God concerning your preservation. God will do His part because He is faithful. After all, you pray to Him, and others intercede for you. You too must play your role well. It is the desire of God that we should be spiritually fruitful, holy, and healthy.
3 John 1:1-2 1 The elder unto the well-beloved Gaius, whom I love in the truth. 2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. 
This scripture states the same biblical truth; the prosperity, soundness, and well-being of the whole man (the spirit, the soul, and the body), is desired by God. We should desire this for ourselves and our fellow brethren. The soul and spirit form the spiritual man which is not seen as the physical body. Very often, the spirit and the soul are closely joined together but the word of God reveals that they can be separated. Desire your brother’s well-being. With the members of your Church their well-being. Paul said I have not shunned to present to you all that is profitable for you because I desire your wellbeing. I desire your spiritual welfare. I desire your bodily welfare also, that you may prosper in health. We need it. We want you to be healthy in the body. If you are not healthy, how do you carry out the work of God?

Thought for the day: Care for your whole being to be available for God's service.

Song for the day: My spirit, soul, and body praise the Lord.

Bible reading for the day: 
Psalms 70-72; Romans 4

For taking your time to study remain blessed. August Tuesday 27th TOPIC: CORRECT WATER BAPTISM TEXT: Mark 16:15-16 KEY VERSE: Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. The believer requires water baptism. The baptism that Jesus commanded is in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is done by immersion in water because the three Persons are One. In Acts of the Apostles, the people were baptizing in the name of Jesus. They used the phrase “in the name of Jesus” to indicate that the baptism was carried out as authorized by Jesus, and the baptism authorized by Jesus is that which is done in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. It is not to say that they dip people in water and say, “I baptize you in the name of Jesus.” The name of Jesus cannot represent the Godhead. The Father is not Jesus, the Holy Spirit is not Jesus, Jesus is God who be
