1 Thess. 5:23, “And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and [I pray God] your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
Other scriptures regarding sanctification: 1 Cor. 6:11, Eph. 5:26, 1 Tim. 4:5, Heb. 10:10
I saw today that if my soul is sanctified in Christ by Him, the Holy Spirit and the unveiled word, then things that can potentially affect my soul such as being offended, disappointment, regret, and so on should not matter or have the same value anymore like they use to because of hope and love by faith through grace. Now, if these things do occur my recovery time or healing is supernaturally much quicker due to the wholeness in my soul. Even Paul’s persecutions were only a “thorn” in his flesh.
In the past, if my soul attached to an offense or disappointment the thing it attached to grew and the situation became cancerous. Heb. 6:19 says, “Hope is an anchor for the soul.” It says the soul not the spirit. Rom. 5:2, 5 talks about standing in His grace rejoicing in the hope of the glory of God and that we are not disappointed or ashamed because His love is shed abroad in our hearts.
My soul is sanctified or made whole by revelation of Christ, to Him. He is the hope of glory, Col. 1:27.
In Him, my soul is becoming truth and light. Darkness cannot overcome or comprehend light, John 1:5. This is why Jesus resurrected. Death could not comprehend or overcome the Light, John 1:7, Matt. 17:2. Jesus could never stay dead. He was the lamb slain before everything even was, Rev. 13:8.
When light is turned on in a dark room darkness flees. It has to. This light is now in our hearts! 2 Cor. 4:6.
