EARNESTLY SEEKING GOD WITH OUR SPIRIT-SELF

I was taught that we have a soul and spirit. Our soul is our mind, will and emotions. Our spirit is what gets born again and will live forever. If we are to truly connect with God in a deeper way, we must find the place in prayer where our spirit connects with Holy Spirit of God.

Isaiah 26:9 (Amplified Version)
My soul yearns for you (O Lord) in the night; yes, my spirit within me seeks you earnestly.

Earnestly:
Showing deep sincerity or seriousness
With a purposeful or sincere intent
Serious; determined

Isaiah separates the soul and the spirit of men in our Scriptures. Is it possible that there is another dimension of prayer that we are missing? We rush into our prayer time and pour out all of the things that are on our mind then we stop. But have we  taken the time for our spirit to earnestly seek to connect with God?

Today lets consider taking some additional time to just be still and to earnestly seek God in silence. This will allow time for our spirit to really connect with the Lord once we have emptied our all of the things on our mind.
