YIELD YOURSELF MORE TO THE SPIRIT

Galatians 5:22-25 (Living Bible)

But when the Holy Spirit controls our lives he will produce this kind of fruit in us: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control;… Those who belong to Christ have nailed their natural evil desires to his cross and crucified them there. If we are living now by the Holy Spirit’s power, let us follow the Holy Spirit’s leading in every part of our lives.

The operation of the Holy Spirit is a major avenue through which the life and nature of God grow and manifest in our lives. The Spirit of God is in you and He always wants to strengthen you and lead you to manifest the life and nature of God, (Rom. 8:14). Have you yielded the control of your life to the Holy Spirit? The Holy Spirit will never force you to do anything, but if you willingly yield yourself to Him, He will take control of your life and He will manifest the grace, power and the glory of God in your life. He will manifest and glorify Christ in your life, (John 16:14).

The Holy Spirit is your Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener and Standby, (John 14:16, AMP). By Him, you will always know what to do in any situation, and you will have the strength to do it. Just as the Holy Spirit raised Christ from the dead, as you acknowledge that you are dead to sin because of Christ and yield yourself to the Spirit, He will quicken you and cause you to manifest the life and nature of God. You will walk in newness of life, (Rom 6:4). Studying the Bible and praying makes your spirit charged and more sensitive to the leading of the Holy Spirit. As you yield more to the leading of the Holy Spirit, the life and nature of God in you (fruit of the Spirit) will continue to manifest and grow.

Prayer:
Father, I thank you for your precious Holy Spirit you have given to abide with me forever. Help me to yield more to the Spirit.
