DO NOT LET YOURSELF BE CONTROLLED BY THE SOUL

What is the soul? It is the mind, the emotion and the will.

The spirit of Adam and Eve was in charge before they sinned and the fall was, and then the soul was next to the command. He was no longer a spiritual man, but an "almático" man. He was already guided by his worldly senses, emotions and the fallen will.

Almática is derived from soul. It is spoken of ligatures or soul ties. It refers to the bonds of the soul that can be produced between one person and others, or towards things or animals. There are good and bad soul ties. It is bad when the person feels enslaved by other people, things or animals with whom he feels an almighty attachment.

Examples:
a person can have an almático bond with an animal (mascot) so strong that he spends everything he has for him, without caring about his family.

A woman can have a negative soul bond when she lets herself be harmed by a man and does nothing to free herself ... or vice versa ... a man can become a slave to a woman who mistreats him ...

A person can have an almighty tie to the television. He can not be without watching the teleseries or another program that prevents him from doing his things normally ...

A good lively bond is that which can be felt with a friend, friend, husband, wife, and a beneficial influence is received from them ...

The human soul that is externalized in the personality of each individual is like a spoiled child that must be permanently controlled by his parents so that he does not do damage and so that he behaves as he should.

The soul is very susceptible, passes quickly from joy to depression, from encouragement to discouragement and from obedience to disobedience.

It is almost instinctive and responds not to faith, but to sight, to the palpable, to the physical. That is why a person who wishes to be spiritual must control his soul, must submit it under the scrutiny and control of the spirit.

To be soulful is to let yourself be controlled by the soul and that means to live like a roller coaster, in a moment you can be at the top but a few minutes later you can be falling vertiginously into the pit.

The soulful person can not live a victorious Christian life, because the soul is more unstable than a two-legged table.

Who aspires to have a life with love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, kindness, faithfulness, humility and self-control, as the Bible says in Galatians 5: 22-23, must lead a life controlled by the human spirit, the which, in turn, must have bowed to the Holy Spirit.

The writer of Psalm 103, David, had to find his soul, subdue it under the spirit, compel it to bless God and to remember his forgiveness, favors and mercies.

And he had to do it that way because he knew perfectly well that the soul is stubborn, forgetful and does not like to pray, sing, read the Bible, or congregate.

If Jesus Christ had been an amethyst, he would not have achieved the purpose that the Almighty had entrusted to him (to reach the cross of Calvary and achieve your salvation and my salvation through the blood shed on the cross). The salvation of you and me was the price that Jesus had to pay, a high price, the price of the cross, the price of blood. imagine for a moment all that Jesus had to go through to reach the cross; abuse, beatings, lascerations, blasphemies, accusations, persecutions and many other things, I wonder what it would be like for us if Jesus had acted allmatically, where would we be now? He was one hundred percent man and one hundred percent God but spirit was superior could hold the soul, his emotions, he could not give power to sadness, pain, disappointment, frustration, betrayal, how many things could have felt at that moment, right? if we let ourselves be guided by the soul or the emotions, the Plan of Salvation for humanity today would be a true failure, but thanks to that immense spiritual power that he demonstrated and still remains that way today we can enjoy Salvation and Eternal Life. Beloved community of Steemchurch, beloved brothers all, he made us in his image according to his likeness, therefore we can also stop being soulish and sentimentalists that the only thing that this entails is to drag us to failure, God created us so that we were successful in everything, so that we would have a full life, but until now the great majority of us have not achieved that fullness by not applying the word of Galatians to our lives 5: 22-23

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith,

23 meekness, temperance; Against such things there is no law.

Let's start today to put this word into action in our lives and I autoinvito because I recognize that many things that I have not yet achieved or things that were difficult to achieve was because of being extremely stalwart, in other times I suffered a lot of depression that It is a disease that we have to throw out of our lives because it really is something that can lead to death, and stop complaining so much and move forward with the plan and purpose with which we were predestined. God will fulfill his purpose in each one of us but when we begin to walk in his word and do things according to his will and not ours, let us remember that God's will is good, perfect and pleasant. If until now something has not gone well then we review our actions, if we have failed we must recognize, we must repent of having done wrong in front of God and He who is just and true will help us to correct mistakes and give us the opportunity to write a new story. I hope you liked it. I bless you in the name of Jesus and remember that GOD IS GOOD AND LOVES US MUCH!

This is a great teaching, @mariela, we should not be people controlled by the soul but by the epiritu, sometimes we need blows to learn, but God left us his word to teach us that we should place our will to him. David always gave an order to his soul, to praise Jehovah.

Amen @Darlenys the heart is deceitful and sometimes leads us down paths that are not planned by God
