Espírito
O espírito humano é a parte mais profunda do nosso ser — onde Deus habita, onde a fé se ancora e de onde brota a verdadeira adoração. A Bíblia nos chama a viver pelo Espírito.
A natureza do espírito
O espírito está pronto, mas a carne é fraca. A batalha entre carne e espírito é constante e exige vigilância.
Stay awake and pray, so that you won’t enter into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak."
"Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for the kingdom of heavenis theirs.
For the flesh desires what is against the Spirit, and the Spirit desires what is against the flesh; these are opposed to each other, so that you don’t do what you want.
I say, then, walk by the Spirit and you will certainly not carry out the desire of the flesh.
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. The law is not against such things.
If we live by the Spirit, let us also keep in step with the Spirit.
Now the mindset of the flesh is death, but the mindset of the Spirit is life and peace.
O Espírito de Deus em nós
Vosso corpo é templo do Espírito Santo. Deus fortalece com poder no homem interior pelo seu Espírito.
Don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought at a price. So glorify God with your body.
But anyone joined to the Lord is one spirit with him.
For who knows a person’s thoughts except his spirit within him? In the same way, no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God.
What then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will also pray with my understanding. I will sing praise with the spirit, and I will also sing praise with my understanding.
I pray that he may grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with power in your inner being through his Spirit, and that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. I pray that you, being rooted and firmly established in love,
I pray that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, would give you the Spirit , of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him.
For you did not receive a spirit of slavery to fall back into fear. Instead, you received the Spirit of adoption, by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father! " The Spirit himself testifies together with our spirit that we are God’s children,
The Spirit himself testifies together with our spirit that we are God’s children,
For you did not receive a spirit of slavery to fall back into fear. Instead, you received the Spirit of adoption, by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father! "
Now if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit gives life because of righteousness.
For all those led by God’s Spirit are God’s sons.
In the same way the Spirit also helps us in our weakness, because we do not know what to pray for as we should, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us , with inexpressible groanings.
Do not lack diligence in zeal; be fervent in the Spirit; , serve the Lord.
Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you believe so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Vida no Espírito
Deus é Espírito e importa que os que o adoram o adorem em espírito e em verdade. O Espírito vivifica e transforma.
God is spirit,and those who worship him must worship in Spirit and in truth."
But an hour is coming, and is now here,when the true worshipers will worship the Father in Spirit and in truth.Yes, the Father wants such people to worship him.God is spirit,and those who worship him must worship in Spirit and in truth."
We all, with unveiled faces, are looking as in a mirror at , the glory of the Lord and are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory; this is from the Lord who is the Spirit.
So then, dear friends, since we have these promises, let us cleanse ourselves from every impurity of the flesh and spirit, bringing holiness to completion in the fear of God.
For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but one of power, , love, and sound judgment.
For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but one of power, , love, and sound judgment.
because I know this will lead to my salvation , through your prayers and help from the Spirit of Jesus Christ.
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. ,
Promessas do Espírito
Derramarei o meu Espírito sobre toda a carne. O Espírito revela, guia e capacita os filhos de Deus.
If you respond to my warning, ,
then I will pour out my spirit on you
and teach you my words.
All a person’s ways seem right to him,
but the Lord weighs motives. ,
Pride comes before destruction,
and an arrogant spirit before a fall.
Better to be lowly of spirit with the humble ,
than to divide plunder with the proud.
Patience is better than power,
and controlling one’s emotions, than capturing a city.
The Lord’s lamp sheds light on a person’s life,
searching the innermost parts. ,
So he answered me, "This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by strength or by might, but by my Spirit,’ says the Lord of Armies.
The Spirit of the Lord God is on me,
because the Lord has anointed me
to bring good news to the poor.
He has sent me to heal the brokenhearted,
to proclaim liberty to the captives
and freedom to the prisoners;
I will give them integrity of heart and put a new spirit within them; I will remove their heart of stone from their bodies and give them a heart of flesh, so that they will follow my statutes, keep my ordinances, and practice them. They will be my people, and I will be their God.
This is what the Lord God says to these bones: I will cause breath to enter you, and you will live.
Cuidar do espírito
Cria em mim um coração puro e renova dentro de mim um espírito reto. O espírito quebrantado Deus não rejeita.
God, create a clean heart for me
and renew a steadfast spirit within me.
Do not banish me from your presence
or take your Holy Spirit from me.
Restore the joy of your salvation to me,
and sustain me by giving me a willing spirit.
The sacrifice pleasing to God is a broken spirit.
You will not despise a broken and humbled heart, God.
The Lord is near the brokenhearted;
he saves those crushed in spirit.
Do not trust in nobles,
in a son of man, who cannot save.
When his breath leaves him,
he returns to the ground;
on that day his plans die.
For the word of God is living and effective and sharper than any double-edged sword, penetrating as far as the separation of soul and spirit, joints and marrow. It is able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead.
Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see if they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.
This is how we know that we remain in him and he in us: He has given us of his Spirit.
If you then, who are evil,know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Fathergive the Holy Spiritto those who ask him? "
They saw tongues like flames of fire that separated and rested on each one of them. Then they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in different tongues, as the Spirit enabled them.
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. ,
Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness covered the surface of the watery depths, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters.
But it is the spirit in a person—
the breath from the Almighty—
that gives anyone understanding.
before the silver cord is snapped,
and the gold bowl is broken,
and the jar is shattered at the spring,
and the wheel is broken into the well;
and the dust returns to the earth as it once was,
and the spirit returns to God who gave it.
I am pleased to tell you about the miracles and wonders the Most High God has done for me.
How great are his miracles,
and how mighty his wonders!
His kingdom is an eternal kingdom,
and his dominion is from generation to generation.
