Consider Your Spirit

                                                                                   Consider Your Spirit

We as human beings are all beings everything that has a life force is a being and as human beings we have two aspects to our being there is our physical flesh and there is our spiritual being!
As humans we have to realize that we have a spiritual being attached to all of the complexities that make us us.  Once you realize that we all have spirituality attached to the physical aspects of our being we ask ourselves where does this spiritual side come from?  We must first realize that God is the originator of everything so the source of our spirits originate with God.  God is a spiritual being and the ultimate and supreme spirit and works via the holy spirit.  So once we acknowledge that we all have a spirit and that God is where it originates and that God works via spirits we start to see a connection that compels us to further explore our spirit! 
as you begin to explore your spirit ask yourself these questions: Does your spirit fluctuate with your mood? Does your spirit affect your emotions? Has your spirit ever compelled your actions?
There are many examples in the bible where God compels someone to do something.  Is our spirit how God is able to work and invoke his will with every human? 
If you are looking for examples in the bible study the story of Joseph and the multi-colored coat.  All of Joseph's brothers become extremely jealous about this favor from their father and they were extremely jealous that God had been working through and with Joseph and it caused them to allow jealousy to fill their spirit!  As the sons of Jacob become jealous of Joseph they gang up and attack him!  We must really look analyze this these are sons of Jacob who are under the covenant of Abraham, Isaac, and their father Jacob and they themselves are supposed to be a part of a promise made directly from God himself but God didn't reveal exactly how everything would work but we go back to the story all these sons allow their spirit to have so much jealousy that they actually want to harm and even murder one of their own.  But God lightens the spirit of the oldest and most influential brother Judah and he convinces the group not to kill Joseph and of course Joseph lives and goes on to save many many lives including his father's and brothers' lives because of Gods work but what i want us to look at is how God manipulates the spirit and emotions of those who he is working and executing his will with.  So with this blog my purpose is to get the reader to explore their spirit and allow it to be open to Gods will and allow God to use you and your spirit to execute his will through you!
