This is something the body of Christ has never fully understood: training your trinity to properly connect with God’s Trinity. You are a trinity just like God is a trinity. Your spirit, your soul, and your body — that is your trinity. And God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost — that is His Trinity. To be able to receive from God, you are going to have to know how to keep your trinity functioning right. Your body and your soul will get out of order. But today, you are going to learn how to keep them all in order, keep them connected.
First Thessalonians 5:23 says, “And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly — W-H-O-L-L-Y — and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
Not just your spirit. You have a sanctified body. You need to live with a sanctified mind. When he talks about renewing your mind — flush that wrong stuff out and put in what you should have. You are wholly sanctified — spirit, soul, and body.
And Romans 12:1-3 gives you the operating manual for all three parts of your trinity. Verse 1 tells you what to do with your body. Verse 2 tells you what to do with your mind. And verse 3 tells you about grace operating through your spirit. Three verses. Three parts of your trinity. All three have to be functioning.
Your body is a blocker if you do not know how to deal with it. Your soul is a blocker if you do not know how to deal with it.
That is why Romans 12 is so critical. I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your body a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
How much have you been presenting your body to God? You have been praying in tongues — but how many times have you stopped and said: God, I am going to give you this body? Once you start doing that, sickness and disease have to leave. A body constantly presented to God cannot stay sick — because sickness cannot deal with God. God has never been sick. And He told you how not to be sick — by presenting your body every day to Him.
Two trinities become one. Your spirit, which is born again, is actually your body and soul’s redeemer. The redeeming power of God is in your spirit. But we have been leaving our body out in the world and trying to handle things with just our spirit.
In your prayer time, in your devotion time, in your praise time, in your worship time — call your body what it actually is: the body of Christ. And just like Satan could not keep Jesus in the grave, he cannot keep your body in sickness. Everybody today — resurrect out of sickness. Resurrect out of disease. You are connecting your trinity — your spirit, your soul, and your body — with God, Jesus, and the Holy Ghost. That is the Trinity Connection.
