Let The Holy Spirit Lead You
The Holy Spirit Leads
For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God. Romans 8:14
Psalm 143:10
Teach me to do thy will; for thou art my God: thy spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightness.
Proverbs 8:20
I lead in the way of righteousness, in the midst of the paths of judgment:
The Holy spirit will always lead you to do good, obey God and live in the perfect will of God. That is why He was sent by the father. He was sent to lead us into all the truth. All the truth reveals the perfect will of God.
The Holy Spirit leads those that are sons of God.
So, who are those that are not led?
Those Who Are Not Led
These are the people who divide you, who follow mere natural instincts and do not have the Spirit.
Those that follow the flesh, and their human nature are those that are not led
The Bible clearly tells us to be led by the Holy Spirit. This means we should be constantly led by Him and let Him guide and direct our thoughts, paths and ways. It is a commandment. You do not have a choice. If you are not led by the Spirit, you will go outside God’s will and judgement will follow. If you want to live a joyful, peaceful victorious life, follow the Holy Spirit. Let Him guide, control, direct, lead and own you. Let Him be your boss and Lord.
For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. Romans 8:14
Galatians 5:18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
To be led means that He is our Lord indeed, not just in words. He rules, controls and directs our thoughts, paths, ways, actions and life. This means we take every thought captive to the obedience of Christ.
We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.
2 Corinthians 10:5
To be led by the Holy spirit means that we become totally submissive to the Spirit’s voice and the written word. It means that we stop letting our human nature or flesh lead us.
Romans 8:5,9
For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit…
Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. Romans 8:5
The human nature is a death nature, because judgement of death was decreed after the fall of man, but glory to God, Jesus saved us from the human nature so that we can live supernatural lives above sin.
Romans 8:5,9
For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit…
However, we need to cooperate with God’s grace by the Holy Spirit and not allow the world and the flesh and human emotions dictate for us and tell us how to live. We should reject every thought, idea or philosophy that contradicts and opposes the word of God.
These are the people who divide you, who follow mere natural instincts and do not have the Spirit.
Jude 1:9, talks of those who divide and follow natural instincts rather than the Spirit. So, you see that following the natural thoughts, instincts and ideas of our human nature is what fights God.
It is man that fights God. The Devil does not force us to sin. Man, sins, because man loves sin. Man loves the benefits and pleasures that are attached to sin. The devil is not the one that enjoys the benefits of sin.
The culprit and law breaker is the one that enjoys the stolen wealth and other benefits and pleasures of sin. The Devil is simply the thief that catches thieves and the liar that catches liar.
Jesus said the devil had nothing in Him. Meaning that it is possible for you to live in such a way that the devil will have nothing in you.
You can only achieve this when you live in the whole counsel of the word of God. The word of God comprises of the written word and the direction of the Holy spirit.
The Holy Spirit leads you when you obey the written word and the voice of the Spirit and constantly make decisions based of the Word and the voice of the Spirit. When you constantly know the mind of the Spirit and walk in it, it means that you are walking in the Spirit. When Spirit leads you, you are walking in the Spirit.
Let the Holy Spirit lead you always.
