Devotional - You're Alive, Be Strong (Romans 8)
What does it mean for your spirit to be truly alive? Drawing from the powerful truth in Romans 8:10-11, this devotional explores the transformative reality that if Christ dwells within you, your spirit lives because of His righteousness. We delve into how the same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead now resides in believers, bringing life and awakening to every part of our being. The heart of this message centers on spiritual awakening and strength.
The Father's Business was founded by Sylvia Gunter to encourage people to a deeper relationship with God. Thank you for listening to this devotional.
Speaker 2:Hey everyone, it's Elizabeth and I'm inviting you to join Kimberly and I for Rooted and Resilient October 3rd and 4th in Charlotte, north Carolina. We'll spend the weekend exchanging, striving for rest, fear for sonship and depletion for blessing. Spots are limited, so be sure to register today at thefathersbusinesscom. You're alive, be strong. Romans 8, 10, and 11.
Speaker 2:Spirit, listen to the Word of God for you in Romans 8, 10, and 11. If Christ is in you, your body is dead because of sin, yet your spirit is alive because of righteousness, and if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who lives in you. Spirit, you are alive in the Spirit of God and your Father intends for you to be awake, nurtured, strong and enlarged in Him. The Holy Spirit is present in you, igniting revelation in you of who you really are. You are meant to live life rejoicing in God, with ears to hear from Him. Be blessed as the Spirit of the Lord in you activates your full spiritual DNA, exchange slumber and passivity for the rising glory of being perfectly awakened and enlarged in Him. Be blessed to live from who you are feeling completely alive. Receive who your Father says you are, not who others say you are. Be blessed to embrace life as you connect with His Spirit in a life-giving way. Be blessed with fresh manna of truth that wipes out deception and refutes the constant bombardment of the world, the flesh and the devil.
Speaker 2:Spirit, listen to the heart cry of Paul for his disciples and friends in Ephesians. I pray that out of his glorious riches, he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being. Be blessed to know and live from the strength of the Spirit in you. You are active and strong, not passive. Be blessed, spirit, to lead your soul, directing and instructing it in the ways and the will of God's intention for you. Be blessed with healthy conversation between your spirit and your soul, like David did in Psalm 42, 5.
Speaker 2:Why are you so downcast, o my soul? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God. Be blessed to welcome your soul and converse with your soul from strength and tell it to line up behind you and let you lead. Be blessed to strengthen your vertical connection with God's Spirit, with the soul following in God's order. Spirit, there is pain when you use physical muscles in ways that are out of your comfort zone or have not been used in a long time. In the spirit, there's stretching as you learn new skills, but it will be redemptive pain. The key to many sports is muscle memory. Athletes spend hours practicing what they want their muscles to do in the game. Spiritual muscle memory is the same. So faithfully exercise your God-given identity and legitimacy. God is up to something significant and eternal in enlarging you and strengthening you. Be blessed with being active and strong so that you will be complete spirit, soul and body.
Speaker 1:Be blessed in the name of the one who gives you life through his spirit. For more information or to order your own copy of this resource, please go to wwwTheFathersBusinesscom.
