Message by Karmyn Bokma – September 29, 2024
SOUL: the spiritual part of a person believed to give life to the body, and in many religions, thought to live forever.
NEPHESH: soul, self, life, creature, person, appetite, mind, living being, desire, emotion, passion. That which breathes, the breathing substance or being, soul, the inner being.
Luke 9:25 NIV Jesus: “What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, and yet lose or forfeit their very self?”
SOUL HEALTH: What emerges in your life when you are deeply connected to God and your soul is healthy?
SOUL NEGLECT: What is present in your life when your soul is NOT cared for?
THE WAY OF JESUS …
1. Not hurried – Luke 8, John 11
2. Understanding his Father’s timing – John 7
3. Withdrew to pray – Luke 5:15-16
APPLICATION QUESTIONS:
Take a few minutes to take an inventory of the soul health and soul neglect categories. What do you notice in your own life? What is one step you can take today to vote for soul health? What role does your phone play in your life of soul health? Take a few minutes and ask Jesus to show you what a life connected to him looks like.
Jesus: “Remain in me.” (John 15)
