WALK BY THE SPIRIT!

TODAY’S SCRIPTURES: “But I say, walk by the Spirit and you will not carry out the desires of the flesh.” GALATIANS 5:16—– ” But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.” GALATIANS 5: 22

TODAY’S MESSAGE: As we were born into this world we were born with a sinful nature. Our nature was and still is sinful and unrighteous. We have desires in our being that are sometimes unspeakable. However, our Lord God in heaven has given us an ability to overcome our sinful nature and live our lives in righteousness by living in the Spirit. When Jesus left this world, the Holy Spirit was sent. Through our Faith in Jesus God has given us his Spirit to live within us. His Spirit, the Holy Spirit, is God himself. The Holy Spirit is a person with a mind, a will, emotions and communication abilities. These are all the same attributes of those of our God in heaven and Jesus himself. The Holy Spirit is a person and not a thing. We sometimes forget this and treat Him as something other than who he is. He is the third person of the Holy Trinity- The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. He is God himself displayed in the person of the Holy Spirit. He is our helper. He is our guide. He is the Spirit of Truth. It is very important that we take time to listen to Him when he speaks to us. He is said to speak in a small still voice. We must be able to be quiet and listen closely. We must take the time to shut down our busy lives and listen. We must be disciplined in how we walk in the Spirit. He is the way and the light for our feet. The Holy Spirit produces love, joy, patience, peace, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control in each of us. We can walk this earth with confidence when we walk in the Spirit. It is our God who is in control. He is God Almighty, Jesus our Lord and Savior, and the guide for our life, the Holy Spirit. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL SITUATIONS!
