Spiritual Cleansing

Just as the human body requires to be fed, cleaned and rested, so the human spirit requires those things. However not the physical, but the spiritual aspects of the same.

1) Spiritual food - The Word of God

2) Spiritual Cleansing - Renewing of our minds and constant cleansing by the blood of Jesus from the sin that so easily entangles

3) Rest - Casting our worries on Jesus and letting our minds be at peace

Now I'm not saying that the "spiritual cleansing" is what takes us to heaven. The finished work of the cross, that is, once and for all forgiveness of sins is what ultimately seals our salvation. That can be considered as oxygen. As long as God's sacrifice is alive in our hearts, we'll be alive in our spirits. Take that away and feeding, resting and cleaning will not be necessary because the spirit is dead. But once your spirit is alive in Christ, you need to take care of it just as you do your human body. Have you been looking after your spirit well? If you haven't, start today! Don't let your spirit die because of neglect and starvation. Amen?
