The challenge is asking yourself “Am I willing to relinquish control of my life to God. Until you reach this point you are deluding yourself about walking with God.
Most Christians operate mostly out of their flesh and reject the power and authority of the Holy Spirit.
Jesus said the starting point is you must be born of the Spirit and Water.
The Spirit baptizes you into the death and resurrection of Jesus and the Water transforms you from your natural life at birth into a new creature sealed with the Holy Spirit.
If you are a born again believer, the wind or Holy Spirit blows where it desires. You can discern the presence of the Spirit at work but cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. You are literally operating under the authority of the Holy Spirit and not through your flesh. You are living in uncharted waters on an unpredictable journey crafted by God.
God is opening doors and guiding your pathway. It is like getting on an elevator and resting while the Spirit delivers you to your destination.
God is a Spirit and we are instructed to worship Him in Spirit and Truth.
Walking by the Spirit requires vigliant prayer, reading the Bible, and listening for the voice of God.
The promise from God for the Christ follower is the law of the Spirit of life in Christ will set you free from the law of sin and death.
The flesh brings death and the Spirit offers freedom from the bondage of sin.
The beauty of walking with Jesus through the Holy Spirit is you can experience a personal and embracing relationship with the Living Christ every day of your life.
