To be LED by the Spirit of God is
NORMAL for a child of God. Paul wrote in Romans 8:14:”Those who are
led by the Spirit of God they are the sons of God.” Then you ask
yourself the question: How many people are sons of God? How many
people are children of God? Many are believers but they are not led
by the Spirit of God, they are to followers of Jesus Christ.
You cannot follow Jesus if you are not
led by His Spirit, the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of God. Most people
are led by their emotions, their lusts, their ambitions, they are led
by other people, by the media, TV. Some are led by their church
leaders, others are led by their own insight of the Bible, others by
books, philosophies but only those who are led by the Spirit of God
THEY are the children of God, they are the sons of God. If we are not
led by the Spirit of God, if we do not follow Him we cannot be
pleasing to Him.
Many ask how it is to be led by the
Spirit of God. If you go on your knees and accept Jesus Christ as
your Lord and Master, if you REPENT and TURN AWAY from sin,
wickedness and from your own thoughts and you embrace Jesus Christ,
PUT YOUR MIND ON HIM, then He puts His mind in you. If your mind is
occupied with your own ambitions and with sin and with lust and with
the things of this world then that is where you will go, that is what
you will do. If your mind is on Jesus Christ then He puts His mind in
you and you have the MIND OF CHRIST, He reveals Himself to you. He
gives to UNDERSTANDING of the kingdom of God, He give you
UNDERSTANDING of the scriptures that were recorded by those who
recorded his words. He EXPLAINS it to you, it is not a matter of
interpretation. It is a matter of getting understanding from the Holy
Spirit, from Jesus Christ Himself, being led by the Spirit of God.
If you commit your life to Jesus then
everything that happens to you is from God because He guides your
footsteps but if your mind is on other things you will not see the
hand of God moving in your life. You will not hear His voice because
you are TOO BUSY WITH YOUR OWN THOUGHTS and listening to other
people. Those who are led by the Spirit of God they are the sons of
God. They SEEK to HEAR from HIM. Their mind is on Him, they are TUNED
IN to Him and therefor they LISTEN, they HEAR HIM, they FOLLOW Him
because they EXPERIENCE Him. Jesus Christ is REAL to them, they are
LED by the Spirit of God and they OBEY Him. They FOLLOW Him wherever
He sends them and they bear GOOD FRUIT. They do what is pleasing to
Him.
Without Jesus Christ we can do nothing
that is pleasing to Him. If we are not grafted into the Vine we
cannot bear good fruit. We have to HEAR FROM HIM and be led by Him,
by His Spirit. Are you led by the Spirit of God? Have you received
the Holy Spirit? Do you LISTEN to Him and do you FOLLOW Him? Are you
a child of God, a follower of Jesus Christ , are you led by the
Spirit of God?
May Jesus bless you.
