re-oxygenation . The systematic loop of the heart pumps the high oxygen blood to the rest of our organs . With each inhale , your lungs fill with fresh oxygen and each exhale releases carbon dioxide ensuring the blood your heart pumps is meeting the needs of your body . The lungs and heart are so connected that if either one has a problem , it can also cause the other to fail .
When God created Adam , He created him in His image and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life and Adam became a living soul . After His resurrection , Yeshua appeared to His disciples , breathed on them and said , “ Receive the Ruach ha-Kodesh .” ( John 20:22 TLV ) The first Adam was made a living soul , but the last Adam ( Yeshua ) through the Ruach ha-Kodesh gives life to us , the children of God .
As the breath of God fills our spiritual “ lungs ,” His love can flow in and out of our spiritual hearts .
From the overflow of our heart we speak , unfolding either the enemy ’ s destruction or our Heavenly Father ’ s life right before our eyes . The breastplate of our Father protects us from the offenses and wounds of the enemy . With this breastplate firmly set in place , our love will not grow cold toward God or our neighbor while we fight the spiritual battles set before us .
