Yesterday, I shared on the critical need to retrain your body unto righteousness. The truth is that some Christians have so trained themselves in the things of God that if they get into an environment that is full of sickness and infection, they will walk through it with nothing touching them. This is because their bodies aren’t responding to it. Yet, it is possible for a born-again child of God with the Almighty Holy Spirit living inside him to contract sickness in that environment. This is because even though his spirit is alright, his body is responding to outside stimuli.
Our bodies are supposed to be trained to respond to inner stimuli from the Holy Spirit. Someone annoyed you and you want to say, “You are mad!” but something else within you says, “Just keep it cool” and you chose to keep it cool. Somebody says, “You can’t do like your father” and you answer, “Thank God, which of my fathers? There are two of them - the physical one and the heavenly One.” What will the heavenly One do?
There is a war constantly going on between your flesh and your spirit, but the man that will gain victory in that war is the man that can live a triumphant victorious christian life. Many of us think what we allow our bodies to do will not affect our spiritual sensitivity; It will and if you don’t put this body under subjection, it will make you spiritually insensitive.
PRAYER: Lord, help me to keep away from my life things that can poison my spiritual sensitivity in Jesus name. Amen!
