Follow The Spirit Of God With Surety

Watch
Listen

Often, we know that we have to follow the Spirit of God, but we do not know why and how. God reveals things through His spirit, and unless we're determined to obey the calling of gospel, we'll not hear from the Holy Spirit in greater clarity. The Spirit of God is always upholding us in all situations and He gives us power, love and self-discipline in all things and in all situations. And it is the Spirit of God that gives us compelling convictions in life, such that we find purpose and convictions from Him in our regular routines and daily works. No matter what constraints we have in our lives and evangelism, they are every reason to drive us into total reliance on the Holy Spirit so that we can see the infinite God in our finite situation. When we see the clarity of God's leading, we will be compelled to submit to Him and have increasing pulse to finish the gospel race in this end times.

“There is a way that appears to be right, but in the end it leads to death” <Prov 14:12>. How true this is! Nobody would ever deliberately choose a path of failure and destruction. However, often, it was those seemingly harmless and “inconsequential” decisions that set us on a direction towards a regretful end. Indeed, we face many decisions and choices everyday; and some choices can affect us for a lifetime. For someone who truly believes in God, the most important decision one can make, is to choose God, over and over again, despite trials and temptations in our earthly living. Our own best choices and efforts can lead to futility, but only what God promises and provides will endure. May God enable us to always choose right and choose Him!

Verses to Read: <Genesis 13:5-18>

1. The choice that leads to failure.

* Lot: Carnal Christians

Choose by own analysis (wisdom) and flesh.
Perspective different (opposite) from God.
Some decisions seem inconsequential, but set a certain (tragic) life direction.
Bad choices come with consequences.
How do we compare to Lot?

2. The choice that leads to success.

A choice based on faith.
– Lot trusted own eyes; Abram trusted God.
– Best/wisest choice: Choose God over good conditions.
Faith gives rise to simple heart.
Abram could make blessed choice because of his daily blessed living.
– Prayer-centered living
Blessed choice >>> Blessed consequences.
