Proverbs 20:27 The spirit of man is the candle of the Lord, searching all the inward parts of the heart.
The Lord God is searching our inner parts of our hearts to see what we really are about. Are we truly His children? Or are we faking it like we do to the world because we don’t want to get hurt? The Lord God knows all things. He even knows what we are thinking! How is that possible; that He knows so much about us?
Genesis 2:7 Then the Lord God formed man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living being.
Psalm 139: 13 You (God) brought my inner parts into being; You wove me in my mother’s womb. 14 I will praise You, for You made me with fear and wonder; marvelous are Your works, and You know me completely. 15 My frame was not hidden from You when I was made in secret, and intricately put together in the lowest parts of the earth. 16 Your eyes saw me unformed, yet in Your book all my days were written, before any of them came into being. 17 How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How great is the sum of them! 18 If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand; when I awake, I am still with You. … 23 Search me, O God, and know my heart, try me, and know my concerns, 24 and see if there is any rebellious way in me, and lead me in the ancient way.
The Lord knows so much about us because we made us! We created us inside our mother’s womb. He blew His breath of life into each one of us and we became living beings. He knew us BEFORE we were born!! He searched us and tried us to see if there was any rebellion in us or would we follow His Spirit and accept His way through His Son Jesus.
1 Thessalonians 5:23 May the very God of peace sanctify your completely. And I pray to God that your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless into unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
We are beings with a spirt, soul, and body. We are triune being. Our spirit was born again when we accepted Jesus as the Christ, Lord, Savior, and Redeemer of us. Our soul is our personality – mind, will, and emotions. Our body houses both our spirit and our soul. God sanctifies us or sets us apart for Himself. The sanctification is the process of becoming holy like the Lord God.
2 Corinthians 4:16 For this reason we do not lose heart: Even though our outward man is perishing, yet our inward man is being renewed day by day.
Since the sin of the fall of man in the Garden of Eden, our outward man – our body – has been perishing. Why? It is the effects of the curse from the original sin. When the spirit man is renewed daily by reading the Word of God we can slow down the effects. We can even stop the effects on a personal level when we confess for ourselves the original sin and ask for forgiveness from the Lord God.
Ephesians 4:22 that you put off the former way of life in the old nature, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, 23 and renewed in spirit of your mind: 24 and that you put on the new nature, which was created according to God in righteousness and true holiness.
In order to live a Kingdom life in God, we have to stop doing the things we done BEFORE we were saved. Stop in the old nature in yourself and renew your mind – your thinking. Take on the new nature of Jesus Christ and a Kingdom life that is in righteousness and holiness.
Phil 4:8 Finally, brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things are honest, 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 any praise, think on these things.
We are to think on the good things of life according to God NOT the world.
Psalm 29:2 Give to the Lord the glory of His name; worship the Lord in holy splendor.
Because God, we all are here. We are no accidents. God had made a conscientious decision to create each of us. And because of that, we must give God the glory due to His Name and worship Him in holy splendor!!
