“That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.” John 3:6
You were born into the world as an empty vessel lacking the Spirit of God. Like Nicodemus you cannot understand the truths of God. You are a lost soul and without hope.

Think of yourself as an unlit light bulb. There is no light in you and you stumble through life in darkness.
You can read the Bible, attend church, and participate in religious activities but you are just going through the motions without the Spirit of God.
You become born of the Spirit when you invite God to fill you with Himself in the essence of the Holy Spirit. You agree to walk with God through His Spirit and worship Him in Spirit and Truth. You abandon yourself to God and live for Him.
The Holy Spirit is your lifeline to God and will take what belongs to Jesus and declare it to you. The Spirit will teach you the truths of God and transform your mind to understand the perfect and acceptable will of God.
The empty light bulb is now infused with the life of Jesus and you are a light for God. To maintain a brilliant light, you need to nourish yourself with prayer and the Word of God. Learn to “Be still and know that I am God.”
Submit to the Holy Spirit and recognize the boundaries of God are for your protection.
Thought for the day:

“The Holy Spirit is My life dwelling inside you. You can only come to know Me through My precious Spirit. Do not grieve the Spirit of the Living God. Walk with Me with an inner consciousness to My Spirit and an open heart to My guidance and correction. I will show you My glory and greatness!”
