Soul Issues

The soul is the seat of emotion, thought, passion, intellect, and choices. Man is a product of his influences and surroundings. We have been molded and formed by our choices. It is unfortunate that our soul is so under-nourished. We are attempting to be victorious out of a wounded soul. Because our soul is weak, we find it difficult to gain control over our lives. We need to know that sick can't help sick. Emptiness cannot make full. We cannot dispense out of our soul what we do not have.

The Bible tells us in 3 John 2, "I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health even as thy soul prospereth". Our health and wealth is found in the strength of our soul. Our soul is exercised by obedience. We must make a practice of making right choices. Our choices must be filtered and screened through the Word of God. A happy soul creates a joyous life. Light in the soul dispels the darkness of this world.

How to heal your soul:
  • Make choices based on faith and not fear.
  • Do not make decisions based on your feelings. Cause your soul's emotion to be surrendered to God.
  • Want what God wants and not what you want.
  • Understand that true success and prosperity is first a soul issue before it is a material or spiritual issue.
  • Realize that soul issues are always supposed to move us closer to God.

Have a great day as you work at prospering your soul.
