The Power of Aligning the Soul to the Spirit

The Power of Aligning the Soul to the Spirit

March 12

As I tuned in to a Christian teacher on television, she shared a profound insight that resonated deeply with me. She spoke about declaring healing even when our physical bodies are experiencing challenges. It dawned on me in that moment: when we affirm healing, we are speaking from the spirit within us.

The spirit within each believer is perfect and complete. It encompasses everything we need. It is the part of us that is already dwelling in the heavenly realms. Therefore, when we speak truth from this spirit, we align ourselves with divine reality. Our soul, on the other hand, plays a crucial role in this process. It is the seat of our will, choosing between life and death, between aligning with the spirit or succumbing to the limitations of the physical world. By choosing life, we embrace our spirit's perfection and completeness.

In the depths of our being, the spirit man resides, untouched by imperfections or limitations. So when we declare, "By his stripes, I am healed," we are affirming a reality that transcends our current circumstances. This declaration sets in motion a harmonization of our soul and body with the truth of our spirit. In the past, perhaps, we failed to recognize this distinction. We didn't understand that we could operate from a place beyond our immediate experiences. Yet, as we align our soul with the spirit, we tap into the perfect essence of our being.

Scripture reminds us that we are seated in heavenly places with Christ Jesus (Ephesians 2:6). This position isn't a distant reality but a present truth. When we speak, "I am healed," we speak from the perspective of our true identity, which is already seated in heavenly realms. In the realm of the spirit, sickness holds no sway (Isaiah 53:5). Therefore, when we align ourselves with this truth, healing starts to permeate every aspect of our existence. Through the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross and his resurrection, the veil separating us from divine reality was torn asunder. Now, we have unhindered access to the spiritual realm.

This access isn't limited to our physical bodies alone. It extends to the world around us, infusing even inanimate objects with the power of divine transformation. Just as Christian teacher mentioned, through prayer and blessing, we can impart the qualities of heaven to the material realm. Consider the sacrament of communion, where simple bread and juice become vessels of spiritual significance. In faith, we partake of these elements, recognizing them as the body and blood of Jesus. Through our spoken words, infused with the power of the spirit, ordinary substances take on extraordinary meaning.

In conclusion, let us remember the profound truth revealed through this understanding: when we declare healing, we speak from the depths of our spirit. As we align our soul with this truth, our bodies and surroundings align accordingly. May we continue to speak from the perspective of our true identity, seated in heavenly places, and witness the transformative power of aligning spirit, soul, and body.
