There are different kinds of human spirit. Every kind of human spirit can be grouped into two broad categories – positive and negative. Examples of the positive and alternate kinds of human spirit are as follows:
a. Strong versus weak spirit
b. Healthy versus broken spirit
c. Trained versus sick spirit
d. Baby (immature) versus wrong spirit
e. Mature versus wounded spirit
f. Contrite versus perverted spirit
As a child of God, you must pursue a trained spirit; a trained spirit is one that combines all the attributes of other positive spirit types. A trained spirit is a spirit that has been exercised in the things of God to be able to pick divine signals. It can operate accurately in the spirit realm. In essence, you can train your spirit to pick every sign or signal from God. This body is the house of that spirit. Just as you can build up this body, develop and train it, so also the spirit man can be trained; just as the body can be trained for sin, it can also be trained for righteousness.
You can train your body to respond to good things. You can train your body to respond to the Word of God. When somebody says a Christian is sick in the body, God’s viewpoint in heaven is that the Christian is healed because everyone that is born again is healed. But what happens is that when we were not born again, the body had been trained to respond to certain symptoms of sickness and anytime those stimuli come, the body still responds to them unless it is retrained.
PRAYER: Lord, I receive grace to pursue a trained spirit that picks divine signals and to retrain my body for righteousness. Amen!
