I appeal to you therefore, brethren, and beg of you in view of [all] the mercies of God, to make a decisive dedication of your bodies [presenting all your members and faculties] as a living sacrifice, holy (devoted, consecrated) and well pleasing to God, which is your reasonable (rational, intelligent) service and spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world (this age), [fashioned after and adapted to its external, superficial customs], but be transformed (changed) by the [entire] renewal of your mind [by its new ideals and its new attitude], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God, even the thing which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His sight for you]. Romans 12:1-2 Amp
You are a spirit which lives in a body and has a soul. When the spirit leaves the body, the body will immediately fall over, die and become dust again. Your body has no life in itself, but the life is in the spirit.
You must train your flesh to discern between good and evil. You must offer your body as a living sacrifice, by submitting it to your spirit which has the life in it. Your body is not you, your spirit is the actual you. The body is the place where you live. That is why the Word of God says that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. Your own spirit, and the Holy Spirit of God dwells in your body.
If you start taking control of your spirit, feed it on the Word of God and take authority in the spirit, your body will just tag along and start doing whatever you tell it to do. If you tell it to be healed because the Word of God says so, then it will be healed.
The moment that you start walking in the Spirit [where you can crucify your flesh and place it under the dominion of His Holy Spirit] you will start to experience the supernatural power, which is part of Gods plan for your life. This is the moment when miracles starts following you.
Your mind is the most powerful computer on the face of the earth and you can program it to do amazing things, but it was never made to be your governing system. The spirit is your governing system, and when you allow the Holy Spirit to take control of your spirit, you will be walking in the supernatural permanently.
