Healing of the body, soul and spirit

https://youtu.be/NVwe8wxVJ38

Genesis 2:7 NKJV 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. 

When God created man, three parts were made; the body, the soul and the spirit.   It was an absolutely perfect creation of God.

God gave Adam and Eve the freedom to serve his purpose of worship in the garden of Eden but they abused the freedom instead of obeying God they obeyed the devil. We are all free to use the freedom God has given us in whichever way we want however, it is clear that this freedom is meant to do the will of God, to worship God, to serve Him, to be his people and for Him to be our God.

Man fell and it affected him in 3 areas;

In the body

In the soul and

in the area of his spirit

 

The Body:

Men developed a body that is mortal. 

Genesis 3:19 NKJV In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread Till you return to the ground, For out of it you were taken; For dust you [are,] And to dust you shall return."

After this condition of dying (mortal), the body needs healing because God  intends it to be the temple of the Holy Spirit. 

1 Corinthians 6:19-20 NKJV Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit [who is] in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own? For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's.

We know that the only way we can glorify God in our body is first of all accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and through the power of the Holy Spirit.

This means we ought to receive physical healing here on earth, that is why Jesus Christ went about healing many sick people- to Glorify God.

The Soul:

The soul also includes the mind

The soul is separated from God and God  wants us to come back to Him. Separation also means spiritual death because we are not born again.

Why is the soul is so important to God? Ezek.18:19-21

Mark 8:36-37 NKJV For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?

So then, according to Jesus if the soul is the most important thing,  it shouldn't be lost but saved. The ultimate healing for the soul is salvation. If you repent of your sins and accept Jesus as personal Savior and Lord, this answers the question whether your soul is saved.

The mind: 

Before the fall the mind was prefect, It got corrupted after the fall.

Genesis 6:5-6 NKJV Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man [was] great in the earth, and [that] every intent of the thoughts of his heart [was] only evil continually. And the LORD was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart.

Out of man's heart come evil thoughts Mark.7:20-23 these evil thoughts lead us to all sorts of evil. to have a renewed mind is what we need. To have godly thoughts, praise worthy thoughts, these things only found in the word of God. 

Philippians 4:8 NKJV Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things [are] noble, whatever things [are] just, whatever things [are] pure, whatever things [are] lovely, whatever things [are] of good report, if [there is] any virtue and if [there is] anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.

When our soul and mind are healed then our thinking patterns will also be healed.

 

The spirit: 

Before the fall, man's spirit was connecting very well with the Spirit of God

But after the fall the spirit in man died. We were separated from the creator through our spirit by sin. But thank God he gave us a solution to our problem of separation and spiritual death.

When we are dead in the body that is physical death but when we are dead in the spirit because of our sin, that is spiritual death.

Genesis 3:15 NKJV And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head, And you shall bruise His heel."

Therefore we have hope despite the fall that spiritually and even physically separated us from God that everyone who believes shall be saved and receive the healing of God in the soul mind and body.

The healing of the body, soul and mind absolutely depends on what you do with this Jesus Christ. If by accepting him as a personal Savior and Lord, He will heal you and make you a child of God and make you a fellow heir in the Kingdom of God.

Amen.
