Don’t give God’s Holy Spirit any reason to be upset with you. He has put his seal on you for the day you will be set free ⌞from the world of sin⌟.
Ephesians 4:30 GW
Walking with God, in harmony with the Holy Spirit, is the way God designed us to live with Him for eternity.
The promise of redemption from a life of disobeying God is freely available to those who repent of walking in darkness.
So I tell you and encourage you in the Lord’s name not to live any longer like other people in the world. Their minds are set on worthless things.
They can’t understand because they are in the dark. They are excluded from the life that God approves of because of their ignorance and stubbornness.
Ephesians 4:17-18 GW
The destination is already set. God gave us the Holy Spirit as a sign that we will be saved on Judgment Day. God doesn’t break His promises like humans do. We can trust Him at His Word.
We simply walk out our sanctification in agreement with His will.
You have certainly heard his message and have been taught his ways. The truth is in Jesus. You were taught to change the way you were living. The person you used to be will ruin you through desires that deceive you.
However, you were taught to have a new attitude. You were also taught to become a new person created to be like God, with a life that truly has God’s approval and is holy.
Ephesians 4:21-24 GW
Holiness is what sets the Church apart from the world.
Christ’s Body obeys the Head of the Church, the Lord Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit tells the Church what Jesus is saying. As we keep in step with the Spirit, God’s will is done on Earth as it is in Heaven.
We have been delivered from our carnal selves to live for Christ. Our old ways and old nature lead to destruction. The Spirit leads to life everlasting.
The walk sign is on. Walk with God, not the world. Imitate God, not the world. Be one with Jesus and The Father, walk in the Spirit!
When we refuse to walk with God, we not only hurt ourselves, we hurt the Church and the world. We’re all interconnected and one sin affects all and one act of obedience affects all.
Walking in unity with the Holy Spirit is best practice. Don’t grieve the Holy Spirit with how you live.
Lord of All Creation, let us walk with You daily, in the fellowship of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Don’t let anyone deceive you with meaningless words. It is because of sins like these that God’s anger comes to those who refuse to obey him.
Don’t be partners with them.
Ephesians 5:6-7 GW
