Is He Really the Lover of Your Soul?
Thursday, May 13th, 2010In prayer today I began expressing to Elohim (God) that He is the only lover for me. As I began to say, “You are the lover of my soul!” He had me pause and ponder that phrase. If my soul is full of Galatians 5:15-21, is He the lover of my soul? I don’t think so. He does not love sin. He does not love the works of the flesh. He loves our soul only when it is totally surrendered to Him. In order for us to bellow out the phrase, “lover of my soul,” we need to examine not only what’s in our soul, but the position and alignment of our soul. You see, our soul is designed to be mastered. It is to be trained, beat, and whipped into proper alignment and that alignment is under the subjection of Ruach haKodesh (Holy Spirit). When your soul is in the background and His Spirit and evidence of Him working through (e.g., His fruit) then you can say, “He loves my soul!” Let’s not forget what our soul is comprised of.
The only way He loves our emotions, will, and thoughts is if those emotions and thoughts are what He feels and thinks. As it relates to our will, He loves a submitted and surrendered will, not a stubborn will. Do people often refer to you as “strong willed?” Is that strong will strong about what He wills or what you want, feel, and will? The answers to these questions reveal whether or not He loves your soul. Can you truly, honestly say, “He’s the lover of my soul” today? I can and will while simultaneously acknowledging areas I must continue to surrender and submit to daily. We must die to what we want, feel, and think. We must lose our life to find it deeply embedded in Him. A dead soul is a loved soul! He is the lover of my dead soul. He loves the areas in my soul I’ve surrendered, submitted to His lordship and brought into proper alignment by His Spirit. Oh, yes He does!
