ACTIVITIES OF THE BODY
Romans 8:9-17Devotional:- “But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you”. (V. 11) NKJV
Your body is your life jacket. It helps you to relate with the physical world. However, it has no strength of its own. It derives its strength from the spirit through the soul. No matter how physically fit anyone is, when the spirit is out, all the muscles will be as weak as vegetables. The soul of a man of muscle can be frustrated to sorrow (Proverbs 18:14). This is because it depends on the energy of the spirit to give it life (John 6:63) MSG.
The word of God says, if the Holy Spirit is in you it will strengthen your body to come alive. That is why you need to cherish the word and the spirit of God. If the Holy Spirit is not moving you, especially as a child of God, then the devil can always frustrate and discourage you.
Friend, the time has come for you to cherish the place of the Holy Spirit in your life. You will discover that people who don't bother about the things of the Spirit of God could be having some substances but it cannot last, because they are helped but not by the Holy Spirit. But as a child of God you need to consciously cherish the Holy Spirit. Sickness, weakness or incapability are all products of the energy from the negative spirit. Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there will be liberty (2 Corinthians 3:17). Your strength has come. Peace!
Prayer: Lord, there shall be no room for weakness in my body any more, for I am the temple of the Holy Spirit.
