The Spiritman Update can be read like a devotional. It follows the comics panel by panel mixed with commentary from the creators and a dose of scripture.

What am I suppose to do now? Just like Martin you have access to God's armor. So, what now?
"His disciples said to him, “Behold, now you are speaking plainly, and using no figures of speech. Now we know that you know all things, and don’t need for anyone to question you. By this we believe that you came from God.” Yeshua answered them, “Do you now believe?"
John 16:29-31 WMB

Martin is Spiritman. So, Spiritman has been telling Martin things that he already knows. Another super power revealed... clarity. The holy spirit, which is God... not Spiritman, will lead Martin into deeper truth.
"But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to be his worshipers."
John 4:23 WMB

Do not trust in yourself. Do not trust in the superhero. Trust in God alone. This is the source of Spiritman's super powers.
"Who among you fears the LORD and obeys the voice of his servant? He who walks in darkness and has no light, let him trust in the LORD’s name, and rely on his God."

The empty half thought bubble on the right are Martin's thoughts but they are intended to correspond with the next panel so you will see them tomorrow.
Martin has been given a lot of clear evidence of God's involvement in his life... yet he feels alone. I can relate to that. Even the disciples who lived with Jesus struggled to get their minds around the idea of his lasting presence.
But the eleven disciples went into Galilee, to the mountain where Yeshua had sent them. When they saw him, they bowed down to him, but some doubted. Yeshua came to them and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth. Go and make disciples of all nations, immersing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I commanded you. Behold, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.
Matthew 28:16-20 WMB

Looks like Chelsea is not giving up on trying to figure things out. Will she be able to outrun the ones who are chasing her? Maybe she will turn the tables on her pursuers.
"Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it is the wellspring of life."
Proverbs 4:23 WMB
