This is the 1st animation of the teaching Spirit, Soul and Body, which is a foundational truth that is essential for understanding how much God loves you and believing what He says about you in His Word. Each person is made up of three different parts: spirit, soul, and body. Learn how these three parts relate to God and to each other. At salvation your spirit is totally changed, but your soul and body is not yet redeemed. This series will teach you how to release the life that is already in your spirit, into your physical body and emotions.
hello this is Andrew Wommack and I’m
going to be talking about spirit soul
and body which may not sound the most
exciting thing to you on the surface but
to me this is one of the most exciting
things that the Lord has ever shown me
first Thessalonians 5:23 says and the
very God of peace sanctify you wholly
and I pray God your whole spirit and
soul and body be preserved blameless
unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ
now that is so obvious we are made up of
a spirit soul and body
and the body is very obvious if you go
look in a mirror that’s the part that
you see now you would be speaking to my
soul which is my mental emotional part
some people define soul as your mind
will and emotions and I think that that
certainly is true I don’t think that
it’s all-inclusive there’s more to it I
believe that your conscience is a part
of your soul your soul certainly
includes your mental emotional part I
believe it’s what most people call their
personality if I was to touch your
physical body you can feel that but I
can also touch you by words and it can
touch your emotions it can either make
you glad are sad it can make you angry
you can say words and hurt a person so
the body and the soul are two areas that
every one of us are in touch with
constantly but the spirit part of us is
a totally different matter jesus said
this in John chapter 3 when he says that
which is born of the flesh is flesh and
that which is born of the Spirit is
spirit and there is no direct connection
between the two you cannot in a physical
natural way feel your spirit the spirit
cannot be accessed in any natural way
and herein lies one of the great
problems in the Christian life the
Spirit is the part of us that God
communicates with and
spirit is the part of us that all of the
life and the power of God flows through
in James chapter 2 verse 26 the
scripture there says as the body without
the Spirit is dead so faith without
works is dead also and that just makes
it very clear that the life-giving part
of you is the spirit one of the greatest
keys to walking with the Lord for me has
been to understand this reality of
spirit soul and body that the spirit
realm cannot be seen or felt the only
way to discern what is spiritual truth
is through the Bible to just take it and
believe it jesus said this in John
chapter 6 verse 63 he says the flesh
profits nothing it’s the spirit that
quickens the flesh profits nothing the
words that I speak unto you they are
spirit and they are life it’s revealing
to us spiritual reality and if you want
to know what your spirit is like then
you have to go to God’s Word to find it
out you can’t just go by an emotion by
some type of perception you have to go
to God’s Word here’s another passage of
Scripture in James chapter one and in
verse 23 it says for if any be a hearer
of the word and not a doer he is like
unto a man beholding his natural face in
a glass this is talking about a mirror
for he beholdeth himself and goeth his
way and straightway forgetteth what
manner of man he was but whosoever
looketh into the perfect law of Liberty
talking about God’s words specifically
the revelation of the gospel and
continueth therein he being not a
forgetful hearer but a doer of the work
this man shall be blessed in his deed
this passage of Scripture is likening
the Bible unto a mirror that you look in
to see your spiritual face to see what
you are in the spirit you with your eyes
have never looked directly into your
face you’ve always looked at a
reflection or a representation but
you’ve gotten to where you trust that
well the Word of God is a perfect
reflection of what spiritual truth is
you can’t sit there and say well I think
that you know all my mascara is on and
that my face is fixed my hair is combed
and I’m ready to go you can’t go by how
you feel you have to go look in that
mirror and then you trust what you see
well it’s the same thing with the Word
of God the Word of God gives you a
perfect picture of who you are in your
spirit and it’s the only way
