THE SPIRIT IN YOU
attack and not even realize it. I convince myself that I have the entire armor of God but at the same time allow the enemy to be active within my own life.
“The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” –John 10:10, ESV.
I am learning the values and uses of the different spiritual gifts that were created for the glory of God and that as a church we should be relying on each other, encouraging, and building each other up. Without the body working

“The eye can’t say to the hand, ‘I don’t need you!’ The head can’t say to the feet, “I don’t need you!” In fact, it is just the opposite. The parts of the body that seem to be weaker are the ones we can’t do without. The parts that we think are less important we treat with special honor. The private parts aren’t shown. But they are treated with special care. The parts that can be shown don’t need special care. But God has put together all the parts of the body. And he has given more honor to the parts that didn’t have any. In that way, the parts of the body will not take sides. All of them will take care of one another. If one part suffers, every part suffers with it. If one part is honored, every part shares in its joy. You are the body of Christ. Each one of you is a part of it.” – 1 Corinthians 12:21-27, ESV.
In conclusion, I want to remind you that wherever you are in your walk with the Lord, you are valuable even though the adversary will try to convince you otherwise. If we work together as the body of Christ to expand the Kingdom instead of trying to do it on our own, transformation can and will happen. Stay faithful and remember that you are His beloved.
"There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus" – Galatians 3:28, ESV.

"....when we work together as a church body transformation can begin to happen."
together, to change the world, few changes can actually be made, but when we work together as a church body transformation can begin to happen. A car could be used as a metaphor in this relationship. I am by no means a mechanic, however, I have a small amount of knowledge about how mechanics works. When it comes to a vehicle, if one part of the mechanics does not work, the rest of the car cannot run to its best potential. While some car parts do not work parallel to each other, each part is essential for the comfort and workability of the car. When the key is in the ignition, the driver of the car can move with a destination in mind. If one instrument of the vehicle is not working, it will have a
