Day 2 – Three-part Man
3 John 2 (AMP) “Beloved, I pray that in every way you may succeed and prosper and be in good health [physically], just as [I know] your soul prospers [spiritually].”
Living the “real you” as God created you will require prosperity in both your physical and spiritual. Often we neglect the value of each, but also how they work together to lead us to a Spirit-filled prosperous life.
Let’s look at the three-part man for a moment:
- Physical Body: Feeds on food; Produces physical strength
- Soul: Mind; Emotions; Thinking faculties; Feeds on mental and intellectual food – the Word of God; Produces willpower
- Spirit: The real you; Feeds on spiritual food – the Word of God; Produces faith; Strength, willpower, and faith are required to reach our God-given potential.
Body, soul, and spirit work together in being who God created us to be, but even more to ensure we are able to connect with God on a spiritual level. We should know how each part fits into God’s plan for our lives and how we are to nourish and sustain each one of them.
For today, reflect on the three-part man and how each part fits into God’s perfect plan for your life.
Do you know who you really are? Are you feeding each part with what it needs?
Prayer: Lord, as we come to You today in the Name of Jesus through the working power of the Holy Spirit, we ask for a new revelation regarding the three-part man, a new awakening to become aware of what we need to feed each one in order to experience a spirit-filled life. Amen.
