THE SPIRIT OF LIFE.

And if the Spirit of Him Who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, then He who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also restore to life your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.........................The story of creation is a very interesting story that opened the Bible to us. Among all of God`s creation, Man is worthy of note because the Holy Trinity were involved in man`s creation...For God said, let us make man in our own image and after our likeness and let them have dominion over the birds of the air, the fish of the sea, the beast of the field and every thing that creeps on the ground. Of all God`s creation, man is the only one that was created in the image and the likeness of God. When he was to be created, God moulded the clay/dust of the earth into a unique statue and He breathed into the statue and the statue gave birth to man...a living being. God breathed His Spirit into man and man became a living being. Without God`s Spirit in man, man would have been lifeless, motionless, immovable and useless but the Holy Spirit who resulted from the breath of the Almighty God gave life, meaning, significance and usefulness to that motionless statue of clay called man. The LIFE that the Holy Spirit gave to man resulted in the creation of the vital organs needed for the day-to-day functioning of God`s man. Without these organs, man would still have been regarded as dead. For example, the Holy Spirit who resulted from the breath of the Almighty God created the life-organs of man which includes the heart, lungs, kidneys, pancreas, liver, spleen just to mention a few. These organs gave life and meaning to the existence of man. Can you imagine a man without a heart, lung, liver, kidney, etc...that man is as good as dead. So in summary, the Holy Spirit gave life to the normal functioning of the organs of the body of man at creation. When man fell, he was Spiritually disconnected from God. The Spirit that gave him life left him and sickness came into being. Sickness tampered with the organs that gave life and significance to man and man became a weakling which often times led to his death. Sickness dealt with the heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, brain, skin and other vital organs of the body of man and man became dead. As a matter of fact, that was when death came into the world. It was sickness which came as a result of sin that opened the door to physical death. God had always wanted to fellowship with man because man is the exact image and the likeness of Him. The angels were not created in His image and neither were the host of Heaven fashioned in His likeness. The fellowship God had with man was on-going and consistent until sin came in to separate man from God. This is why it is absolutely impossible for God to fellowship intimately with a sinful man because His eyes are to pure and holy to behold iniquity. The Law of Moses was instituted to deal with sin but instead of combating sin, sin grew and multiplied greatly. God, in His infinite wisdom, knowledge and understanding had to look for another way out. The way that He schemed out was to send forth His only begotten Son to die for man in order to restore the fellowship that was lost in the beginning. Indeed, Christ died but He also resurrected. His resurrection from the dead sealed the fellowship between God and man that was lost at the beginning. It is to be noted clearly that it is the Holy Spirit that gave life to man at his creation also raised Christ triumphantly from the grave of death. If you have accepted Christ into your life, the Holy Spirit is in you to give life to your mortal body. The same Spirit that created you in the beginning is in you to give life to you. The Holy Spirit is in you to restore life to you. If there is anything in your body that is tampering with the life of God in you in the form of sickness and diseases, the Holy Spirit is in you to bring about restorations. You can activate the power of the Holy Spirit that is in you by living a holy lifestyle. As long as sin that led to sickness and diseases in the beginning is dealt with by embracing a holy lifestyle, living a healthy life by the empowerment of the Holy Spirit becomes cheap. I see the Holy Spirit restoring abundant life to everything within you as you consciously and deliberately choose to embrace a holy lifestyle in Jesus precious name. The amazing power of resurrection will wrought amazing wonders in you by the help and assistance of the Holy Spirit. Shalom!
