Train Your Spirit
“Train your spirit much in the same way athletes train their bodies” some concerned loved ones have often told me. True knowledge is demonstrated from your spirit. People I have related with in the past refer to this as when you know that you know.
The heart of an individual, the spirit, is a the real person. God created man in His own image and likeness first. God is the Father of all spirits. The real man is therefore of the spirit and not of the body. God then formed man out of dust to have a legal right to the physical world. Therefore your body is your house and you are spirit. Life is of the spirit. When you die, that is, your body dies- your spirit leaves this physical world.
Your spirit is a treasure store. The Good Book lets us know that out of your spirit flow the issues of your life. The Proverb instructs us to guard our spirit for this reason. Train your spirit in such a way as to be able to guard it from an overwhelming assault from the senses. When you train your spirit you become stronger in adversity.
The highest potential of the human being are in the spirit. Creativity, health, prosperity, wellbeing are truly connected to every individual’s spirit dwelling the body. When we are born into this physical world we try to relate to the physical world and our creator through our senses. As we have to train our senses to our environment, our learning is primarily by training our senses
Through study and meditation educate our spirit. Much in the same way we nourish our physical bodies by what we eat, we nourish our spirit by what we meditate upon. Whatever you meditate upon is what provides for the composition of your spirit at any given point in time
Paul said study to show yourself approved. The approval is from your creator who expects you to determine the course of your life. Each one of us is born as a perfect human being in the spirit. When you have been reconciled to your creator through your spirit, you must study and meditate on His instructions in such a way as to make them your life
In Joshua 1:8 God instructs Joshua “This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it”
It’s my responsibility to make my way prosperous and ensure good success
If these things be in you and abound they make you….
Peter lists the attributes we are to add to the measure of faith deposited in our spirit upon rebirth of our spirit on reconciliation to God.
What you don’t have in your spirit will not work for you. When pressed by circumstances, you response reveals what is in your spirit. Train your spirit to be the one that dominates your body. When your senses are misinformed the communication from your spirit is the only one that can lead you in the right year.
Fasting helps your spirit to dominate your body. It is essential while fasting to meditate on God’s Word and pray in such a way as to your spirit to be open to guidance for the now!
If your body dominates your spirit you are open to circumstances. Creativity is a reflection of the composition of your spirit
It’s my responsibility to keep my body under subjection to my spirit.
God communicates to the human spirit. More on this another day
