TOPIC: Holy Spirit In Your Christian Walk (Mountain Of Fire and Miracle Ministries, MFM Devotional 6 May 2021)

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Psalm 25, 29, 33, 36, 39

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Galatians 5:13-26

13 For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.

14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

15 But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.

16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.

17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.

18 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.

19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,

20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,

21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

24 And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.

25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

26 Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.

MEMORY VERSE: “For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.” – Romans 8:2

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE:
When you claim to be walking with God without the Holy Spirit, you are alone and on your own.

PRAISE WORSHIP: Take a worship song as led by the Holy Spirit

PROPHETIC WORD FOR TODAY:
YOU SHALL RECEIVE POWER AND DO EXPLIROTS, IN THE NAME OF JESUS.

The MESSAGE:

As a believer, you cannot maintain your walk intimately and conveniently with the Lord except by the help of the Holy Spirit. When you come to Christ and you give your life to Him, He takes up the Holy Spirit within you.

God knows our frailty and limitations as we continue in this world as mortals. Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, was sent to this earth (John 3:16) to live as we live, going all the way as we do (Hebrews 4:15). Jesus did not leave us alone either; He gave us the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, Our Enabler (John 14:16). Therefore, we need to walk daily in the power of the Holy Spirit, the indwelling power of God that leads, teaches and guides us through our journey of life. That is why we sing this song:

Holy Spirit, be my Comforter
Holy Spirit, take control
As I walk along the way
The way is narrow,
Holy Spirit, be my guide!

This is a confession of our human weakness, indicating that the Holy Spirit is our guide through life and that we depend on Him. To achieve this, we must be engaged in a consistent daily walk with the Holy Spirit in righteousness and truth. Having become dead to sin and fleshly lusts through the crucifying of the old man in us as we gave our life to Jesus (2 Corinthians 5:17), it is the Holy Spirit that can help us live the new life in Christ without distraction or deviation from the way. We cannot resist the devil by ourselves. Our human power, knowledge and abilities are limited and inadequate here. Only the Holy Spirit can!

Walking with the Holy Spirit means living a new life in Christ, having a consciousness that you are not alone but the power of God in you, helping you to know the mind of God, obey His commandments and do His will. You will experience fruitful and abundant life in Christ. It is a life-changing experience where you are not in charge but the Holy Spirit. He helps you to die totally to your old life and ways of life, and you begin to experience the newness of life in Christ (Galatians 5:24-25).

A big question: Are you obedient to the prompting of the Holy Spirit in you or do you grieve Him? The Holy Spirit is a gentle Spirit who will quietly take His leave if you constantly grieve Him. The Bible warns us not to do so (Ephesians 4:30). Living a sinful life with impunity and hypocrisy will grieve Him.
