Joyce Meyer Daily Devotional 1 April 2026 (Wednesday) Message
TOPIC: Spirit, Soul, Body
Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you through and through [that is, separate you from profane and vulgar things, make you pure and whole and undamaged—consecrated to Him—set apart for His purpose]; and may your spirit and soul and body be kept complete and [be found] blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Thessalonians 5:23 (AMP)

TODAY’S MESSAGE
God loves you, and He is interested in every single part of your life—not just the spiritual part. Just look at what 1 Thessalonians 5:23 says about this: Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ (ESV).
This verse clearly says that we can be sanctified completely, “wholly consecrated to God.” God created us as tri-part beings: We are spirits, we have souls, and we live in bodies. Your spirit is the part of you that receives revelation from God, and your con- science functions through it. Your soul is made up of your mind, will, and emotions, and your body is the house you live in.
God wants every part of our lives to be healthy and whole. This is important, because if even one of those areas is unhealthy, we won’t be able to fully enjoy the life Jesus came to give us. Not only does God want you to be spiritually sound—born again through a personal relationship with Jesus—but He also wants a life for you that’s free from depression, anger, unforgiveness, and so on. He wants you to have peace and joy in your soul!
PRAYER OF THE DAY: God, thank You for caring about every part of my life. I commit to You my soul, my spirit, and my body. Thank You for working in me to make me whole, amen.
