TOPIC: LET YOUR SPIRIT, SOUL AND BODY BE PRESERVED BLAMELESS
TEXT: 1 THESSALONIANS 5:22-24
THURSDAY NOVEMBER 2ND
Key verse: 1 Thessalonians 5: 23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
God created humans with three parts: the spirit, the soul and the body. The three are separate entities but exist as one. Each part has to be taken good care of for one to live well here on earth and in eternity. It is very essential therefore that you care well for your spirit, soul and body. The three persons in a man - the spirit, the soul and the body, should be well cared for and be well preserved. It is the responsibility of God to preserve you blameless to the end. It is God's responsibility and it is also your responsibility. If you do your own part well, God will surely do His own. It is a covenant. It is an agreement between God and you. God will do His own part because He is faithful, but you too must play your own role. It is a dual responsibility. It is the desire of God that we should be spiritually fruitful, holy and healthy.
The wellbeing of the whole man in spirit, soul and body is what God desires for you. Brethren, desire this also for your fellow ones in Christ. Desire their soundness in spirit, soul and body. The spirit and the soul form the spiritual man, which we do not see. What we see is the physical body. We cannot touch our spirit or soul which are joined very tightly together but the word of God can separate between the two. However, what we see is the body. Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. We should wish for the wellbeing of our brothers and sisters (the brethren). Wish for the wellbeing of the members of your Church. Apostle Paul said, I have not shunned to present unto you all that is profitable to you, because I desire your wellbeing; spiritual welfare, bodily welfare and good health.
Thought for the day: God desires your prosperity, soundness and wellbeing.
Song for the day: Praise the Lord, my spirit, soul and body…
Bible reading for the day: Jeremiah 33-35; Titus 3
