The Fortified Soul

 2 Corinthians 10:5,6


For the times we are in, you need a fortified soul.

Your soul is a very important aspect of your being.

1 Thessalonians 5:23

You are who you are on earth to some extent because of the state of your soul.

Your will is an aspect of your soul.

Your mind is an aspect of your soul.

Your emotions is an aspect of your soul.

Your ability to love and receive love has a lot to do with your soul.

Your reasoning faculty and decision making has to do with your soul, it's part of your soul.

1 Kings 3:12

Your soul also called your heart is so important the enemy seeks to influence and have it. God also seeks to influence it.

2 Corinthians 11:3, 1 Peter 2:25

It is the state of your soul that determines your mental health and sanity.

Your rejecting or accepting of the gospel also has a lot to do with your soul.

2 Corinthians 4:4

How well God's word benefits you will have a lot to do with your ability to process or mix God's word with faith in your soul.

Hebrews 4:2

The words soul and heart is is used interchangeably in scripture.

How well life goes for you will have a lot to do with your soul.

3 John 2

Your believing and having faith has a lot to do with how you process information in your soul.

To fortify your soul is to strengthen and protect your soul.

Our souls require fortification from the lies, the deceptions, and distractions of life.

Our souls require fortification from the arrows of the enemy in the form of wrong thoughts, wrong inspiration, wrong imaginations, wrong ideas, and wrong mindsets that come at it regularly.

There is help for our souls in a world where we have been asked to be wise as serpents and harmless as doves.

Matthew 10:16

In ourselves we are weak, but in God we are strong to win the 'battles' that come against our souls.

Ephesians 6:10

The blood of Jesus is a great benefit to our soul. It washes our soul clean from sin and guilt.

1 John 1:7, Hebrews 9:22

The Word strengthens our soul, being taught the Word (truth) builds and establishes us.

Colossians 2:7

The Spirit of God  empowers our soul with wisdom, knowledge, understanding, counsel, and might.

Isaiah 11:2

The Holy Spirit as the Spirit of might is capable of strengthening our soul.

Tough times require tough minds.

You need a tough and strengthened soul for the times we are in, especially if you are going to live as God instructs.

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer.

In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18...

Isaiah 61:3 Ashes are not seen as useful substances. Ashes are waste that's thrown away. Ashes are what is left after a substance is burnt out. Your life may seem like ashes right now but something good and beautiful can come out of it when it's given to God. You may feel like an ash yourself. You may be feeling burnt out from unpleasant experiences of the past, the previous week, the last Month , or the the last year and life's battles may have left you burnt out. Know that out of your ashes can come beauty! God is the one who gives us beauty for ashes. God can make you and your life beautiful! Don't make the ashes your permanent state.
