Seeds Of Destiny For Today 2023 MESSAGE:
Living and flowing in the Spirit is one way to develop Godly character. When you pray in the Spirit genuinely consistently, your character is changed.
Now, what are the fruits of the Spirit?
Galatians 5:22-23 reveals them:
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
It is important to know that the Spirit of God is not just for the manifestation of gifts, but for the development of fruits. And these fruits mean character. A person can have the fruit of character.
There are some men whose wives tremble when they come home; their children also take cover at their sight and presence.
His household workers, the cook, driver, security officers are all under pressure because of his character.
Now, if you find yourself in this situation, your life can be adjusted by the Spirit of God when you pray in the Spirit.
Any tongue-speaking (or praying in the Spirit) that does not change your character first is useless. The tongue-speaking that cannot change your behaviour is useless praying in tongues.
Your speaking in tongue is not useful if it cannot reduce your loquacity, verbal diarrhoea, pride, anger, malice, and hate. Your praying in the Spirit is not useful if it cannot first change and shape your character.
The Spirit of God is called the spirit holiness.
Romans 1:4 says,
And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:
So, the assignment of the Holy Spirit is the empowerment of the saints unto holy living. When you allow the Holy Spirit to saturate your life, you can live a holy life.
Beloved, don’t just speak in tongues to manifest power; speak in tongue to manifest the fruits of the Spirit which include Godly character, holiness, love, temperance, etc.
Remember this: Your praying in the Spirit is not useful if it cannot first change and shape your character.
ASSIGNMENT:
- Allow the Holy Ghost to change your lifestyle as you pray in the Spirit.
- Live a Godly life that befits your profession of Christianity and confession of Christ.
PRAYER: Lord, I ask for fresh grace to pray in the Spirit. Let the fruit of the Spirit be made manifest in my life as I pray in the Spirit.
