” For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.” The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.” ( Romans 8:14-17 NKJV).
” I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such, there is no law. And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.” (Galatians 5:16-25 NKJV).
” And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.”(Ephesians 4:30-32 NKJV).
As believers, the Holy Spirit lives inside each one of us. He’s called our Helper, Comforter, Advocate, Intercessor, Counselor, Strengthener ,and Standby. The more sensitive we are to His whispers, what we’re feeling, the inner promptings, the nudging, the further we’re going to go. This is something we have to learn so strongly about not going against what we’re feeling inside. We have to trust that the Holy Spirit is directing us. That’s where God speaks to you. No matter how good the opportunity looks, no matter how impressive the person seems, if you don’t have peace about situations that involve them, don’t move forward. Or just the opposite. A situation may seem impossible, the odds are against you, and all the circumstances say it’s not going to happen, but if you have an inner peace, that sense of knowing that the Spirit gives, take that step of faith. When you develop this skill of listening to the whisper, following that still small voice, God will not only take you further, but He’ll protect you from things that would have caused you heartache and pain.
” Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, And to present you faultless Before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, To God our Savior, Who alone is wise, Be glory and majesty, Dominion and power, Both now and forever. Amen. ” [Jude 1:24-25 NKJV].
•Continue to walk in love, joy, and peace and keep the flesh defeated.
+++Blessed you are and blessed you will always be and to God be all the glory. Amen!
