THE Spirit Led Life

So, I'm taking this journey of listening and recording my activities with the Holy Spirit in order to learn more about walking with the Holy Spirit and I would like to share my journey with you.

It all began when i was given this "assignment" by one of my mentors to listen to a series of teachings called (....wait for it.....) "The Spirit Led Life". At first, i must admit, i was a little irritated and apprehensive about doing the work mainly because i felt like that was a homework for "baby" christians not "WELL ADVANCED" believers like me (lol...and doesn't that just tell you how much of a "baby" christian i am). Anyway, i grudgingly began the homework expecting that i would hear things that i already knew. However, this was different.

The first day of the assignment, here is what i heard: "Those that are led by the Spirit of God, they are the SONS of God" and the preacher repeated it about 3 times. Immediately, I heard the Holy Spirit say to me - "In other words, those that are not led by me, CANNOT be My sons" and then it clicked!!!!

My whole Christian walk had been sometimes led by the Spirit but other times led by my Feelings - by the fifth message (which took me weeks to get to), the preacher was saying exactly what the Holy Spirit had said to me on day one - "Christians are to be SPIRIT-LED not FEELING-LED". It was as though God was standing in front of me, reprimanding me. I couldn't help but repent in my heart of the many ways in which I have grieved and even quenched the Spirit! Tough Stuff to admit but I was a child of disobedience - unyielding to the Spirit of God. I wasn't truly worshipping Him...I had two masters: God and My Emotions (and unfortunately, I loved my emotions more than I loved God). Yet, I kept wondering why there were so many gallops in my walk with God.

Friends, as human beings, sometimes we are led by many things but the Spirit of God when it ought not be so but there is great news - YOU CAN MAKE A U-TURN. Everyday is a new day which brings a new opportunity to yield and submit to the Way of the Spirit. It's impossible to take the journey of a lifetime when we feel we know it all and have it all down. It's impossible to see God if we don't yield to His Spirit. So check your heart and ALLOW HIM CONVICT YOU. Don't Fight His counsel and the things of life will seem strangely dim in the light of His glory and grace!!!

Be Led by the Spirit of God ALONE.

Yours in, by and through Christ,

KK
