Spirit, Soul & Body Part 3نموونە

Reflection

How would you communicate the measure of faith within you?

Introspection

Consider what the scripture tells us! God has faith in you. He has faith in you to live in the newness of life that Jesus spoke about being born into! Ask yourself: Why else would the scriptures confidently imply that we might ‘walk in newness of life’ and ‘walk in the light as he is in the light’ today? These are right here, right now, realities.

There are times when the old does try to creep back into the picture either through a mindset that is no longer accurate or an experience of failure or missing the mark, but 1 John 3 shows us that every follower of Jesus has a satnav of hope. Even if a wrong direction is taken on the journey, or a pothole in the road causes a stoppage in direction, at the heart of life’s direction is living outwardly (in Soul and Body) what is known to be inwardly true (sealed in Spirit).

Your Next Step

Pray. Be honest in your reflection about where your heart and head interpret these scriptures.

Invite God to speak into your life about the faith he has to see you flourish in new life.

(Remember that the God-head thought through the implications of a person 'doing life' all by themselves, which is why he has filled you with His Spirit and given you a church family - who are also on the same journey as you - to comfort, encourage and share together.)
