YOU CAN HAVE IT ALL

If you pay attention, you will know that the Lord is showing you ways to improve your circumstances that will ultimately result in a better quality of life.

The Lord is revealing things that need to be changed and can be changed that will be very beneficial to you.

However, this benefit will not come if you do not do what is necessary.

2 Chronicles 7:14 “If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

YOU HAVE IT ALL–IN THE SPIRIT

Matthew 26:41 ” Keep watch and pray, so that you will not give in to temptation. For the spirit is willing, but the body is weak!”
The Bible presents salvation as a life transforming experience.
*Change is one of the distinguishing characteristics of a true believer.
*Yet, failure to understand that this change takes place in the spirit first, and then is reflected in our outward appearance through our thoughts and actions in direct proportion to the way we renew our minds, causes much confusion.

This change has to take place in our born-again spirit first.
Why is that?

Example: If you had an major infection in your body before you got saved,  you will you have an infection in your bodybe  after you get saved, unless you go into a Doctor recovery program.
Your body doesn’t instantly change and neither does your soul or mind.

 

It is your spirit that is instantly changed at salvation.

It is perfect (Heb. 12:23). It cannot sin (1 Jn. 3:9). Everything that is true of Jesus is true of our born-again spirit.
**Your spiritual salvation is complete.

At salvation, you receive the same spirit that you will have throughout all eternity. It will not have to be changed or cleansed again.

It is sealed with the Holy Spirit (Eph. 1:13) and therefore, is sanctified and perfected forever (Heb. 10:10, 14; 12:23).

Romans 12:2 Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.

Lord, thank you for the renewing of the mind, help me to live as a child of light for Your Glory and my joy!  Amen
