Purify Your Emotions
Peter was a highly emotional believer as a disciple. He often spoke passionately, rather than spiritually, before he got baptised with the Holy Spirit. Often, Jesus warned him and the other disciples about his state.
But he had a great transformation after the baptism of the Holy Spirit. His revelation is a delight to read and learn, poetic and powerful to stir us into a deeper relationship with Jesus.
His inspiration in 1 Peter 1:22 is the sound of worship. "Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently:"
HOW TO PURIFY YOUR EMOTIONS?
Obey the truth through the Holy Spirit's leading. The Word Of Truth is confirmed by the Holy Spirit. All who are Spirit baptised have their Bible as a reference to grow confident and strengthen their emotions. The soul is the seat of desires, emotions, affections, choices and natures.
Peter transformed into a mighty apostle of God as he learned through his spiritual encounters over time.
Only when we surrender to God's word and His Spirit can we go on to love one another with a pure heart fervently. The blood of Jesus, the Word of God and the anointing of the Holy Spirit sanctifies us daily when we labour in prayer and meditation.
Desire the riches in God's word, and the Spirit of God will satisfy you daily to live a life of peace and rest.
Maranatha, Praise God, and Amen.
