emotional and spiritual health
Dr. Roberto Miranda
(Audio: Spanish)
SUMMARY: The speaker continues discussing the importance of emotional and spiritual health and how God wants us to prosper in all areas of our lives. He emphasizes the need to put on the whole armor of God, as leaving any part out can make us vulnerable to spiritual attacks. The bad day refers to any situation that reflects the principle of evil in the world, and we need to use the Word of God to counteract those attacks. The speaker also emphasizes the importance of completing the processes that God initiates in our lives, even if they are difficult, as they are for our spiritual formation. We need to discern God's purposes in our lives and not turn what is meant for our growth into something diabolical.
The speaker discusses the idea that sometimes God allows negative experiences in our lives to bring out the imperfections in our character and form us into better versions of ourselves. He uses the example of the apostle Peter, who was a flawed individual but became a great leader in the early church after going through trials and tribulations. The speaker encourages us to change our perspective on difficult experiences and see them as opportunities for growth and transformation. He also emphasizes that God works in mysterious ways and sometimes allows negative experiences for therapeutic and healing purposes. Ultimately, the message is to trust in God's plan and allow Him to shape us into who He wants us to be.

I want to briefly pick up the train of thought that I finished the previous Sunday and continue in the Letter to the Ephesians, in chapter 6. As you know we have been talking about emotional healing, spiritual healing, but not only healing as something that is a remedy defensively, but also aggressively, we want to talk about emotional and spiritual health because God calls us to health. The Word says in one of John's epistles that God wants us to prosper in our spirit, just as our body and soul also prosper, that our whole being prosper.
And we have said that God does not want us to live captive to the deformities and pains, and the sufferings of the past, but rather that God wants us to be healthy, healthy people, who reflect the vitality and joy, and the health of the Holy Spirit.
