“And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.” Genesis 2:7

 When God moulded man in the beginning, man did not become a man until he was filled. In the same way, when you were formed, you did not become alive ‘til the breath of God breathed life into your spirit being.

Your spirit being is the engine that carries your life. As you are alive mentally, physically, and emotionally, don’t neglect the life of your spirit.

David, a man after God’s own heart knew the importance of his spirit being, when He prayed in Psalm 119:40 “Behold, I long for Your precepts; Revive me in Your righteousness.”

He knew that it is only the righteousness of God that can revive us spiritually and that when his spirit was revived and strengthened, He was ready for anything that life threw at him.

As long as you have the gift of life, make sure your spirit is revived and this is something only the Spirit of God can do through His Word, which is spirit and life (John 6:63).

  • Oh Holy Spirit, breath of God, breathe in me the breath of God!
  • Oh Holy Spirit, through whom all things were created, create in me a new life, a new beginning!

SEARCH ME

Do you know that God searches our heart? Because only He can see the true motivation behind what we do. What will a search of your heart reveal? Anxious thoughts? Fear? Doubt? Impatience? Anger? Worry? Our life is what our thoughts make it. When we come to God with our lips, He listens to our heart.

THE GREATEST WEAPON

No matter the challenge or confrontation you face today, it is how you respond that matters because our real enemy is sin. When our impatience is provoked, our patience has a chance to grow, when our hatred is provoked, our love has a chance to grow. When our doubt is provoked, our faith has a chance to grow. The psalmist understood that the only way to respond as God would want us to, is when the Word of God is hidden in our heart.

ENTER GOD’S PRESENCE

“How do we meet Jesus today? We can only relate and meet Jesus Christ through His Word and by His Spirit! It is God’s Word which builds the bridge of faith which connects us to God.
The Word dominating our heart is the Lordship of Christ in us. This is why Jesus is asking us to remain in His Word.”
