Maturity In All Areas

We are to pursue fullness in maturity in all areas: spirit, soul, and body!

Sin is breaking some kind of Law, and sin in the body is breaking the law of the body.  Dis-ease is broken law or dismantled easeā€¦ ease that had been destroyed.  Ease is health and dis-ease is sickness.

There are three kinds of sickness: spirit, soul, and body.  Our spiritual condition ultimately translates to the soul and body.  There is a difference between your spirit being new and being strong as well.  Your spirit has the capacity to be either strong or weak.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Romans chapter 8:

1  There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.

If you are not fully led by The Holy Spirit, your spirit can become weak and ineffective. The psalmist recorded in Psalm 77, 142, and 143 that his spirit felt weak.

2 For the law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.

3 For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemned sin in the flesh,

4 that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

It is our responsibility to walk according to THE SPIRIT in all areas.  As we strengthen our spirit man, our spirit takes command of our soul, ultimately taking command of our body.  Many will not pursue this level of maturity because they never thought it was possible.

Wisdom recorded in Proverbs chapter 23:

7 For as he thinks in his heart, so is he. “Eat and drink!” he says to you, But his heart is not with you.

12  Pay close attention to the teaching that corrects you, and open your heart to every Word of instruction.

Your actions will reveal what is in your heart.  You can temporarily hide your spiritual maturity, but in the end, you will reveal what is in your heart.  Be quick to recognize and receive correction and instruction.  It is vital that we submit daily to the instruction of The Holy Spirit!

5 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.

6 For to be carnally minded is death, but to be Spiritually minded is life and peace.

If you want to walk in peace in the times ahead, you must choose to be Spiritually minded in all areas.  I encourage you to be prepared, not scared.

7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be.

8 So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God.

My greatest desire is to be pleasing to FATHER.  These writings are meant to minister the same desire to all who read these.

9 But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His.

10 And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.

11 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.

If FATHER gives life to our mortal bodies, then sickness will no longer be able to reside in our bodies.  HIS Life will swallow up death and destruction.  There are no sick people in Heaven.
