Good Morning Holy Spirit - Daily Devotion

Good Morning Friend, It is always a joy when we do what God wants us to do. Isn't that correct? It will give us immense pleasure as we know that God will be pleased with us when we obey. Nevertheless,  it is not so easy but requires a fervent commitment which most of us struggle with it.  It does require conscious efforts & intentional purity of body, soul & spirit.

Detoxification process is being practiced for centuries by cultures around the world. It is the physiological or medicinal removal of toxic substances from a living organism, including the human body. By removing and eliminating toxins, then feeding our body with healthy nutrients, detoxifying can help protect us from disease. It will renew our ability to maintain optimum health through a range of methods. It is nothing but resting,cleansing,nourishing the body from inside out. 

This is from a physical standpoint but it is as equivalent for us to detoxify our soul and spirit. Many times we are over bogged with work feeds, social media feeds, entertainment feeds, negativity feeds leads us to fear, anxiety etc. which eventually corrupts our soul & spirit drifting us away from God's plan.

God's desire for human is obedience and to live a blessed & a long life. We are also aware about the penalty for disobedience (the first sin ever) is death through Adam and Eve. However, God loves us so much that He sent Jesus and whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life (life after death). 

We need to surrender back to God rather than carrying the guilt of disobedience, hiding us from God. Sometimes expecting a perfect time to return back which probably can never happen. It is time to rest in His presence, cleanse ourselves , nourish our soul & spirit with God's promises.

Apostle Peter has written to gentile Christians, God's elect who have been chosen according to the foreknowledge of God that as obedient children of God, we should not confirm to the evil desires and to be holy in all we do. 

14 As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance. 15 But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; 16 for it is written: “Be holy, because I am holy. - I Peter 1: 14-16

It is time to detoxify our body, soul and spirit!

May your whole spirit, soul and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus"   (I Thessalonians 5:23)

Have a blessed day! 😇

In Christ Alone
