Holy Spirit.
Greetings
TODAY'S VERSE So I say, let the Holy Spirit guide your lives. Galatians 5:16 (NLT)
TODAY'S THOUGHT We can let a lot of things guide our life. Desires, intuition, pride, lust, materialism and what Paul calls our "sinful desire." He wrote in this same passage, "The sinful nature wants to do evil, which is just the opposite of what the Spirit wants." Paul shares that the w...ay we can resist living a life following our evil desires is to belong to Christ and then nail our passions and desires of our sinful nature to the cross that Christ died on. Christ wants us to die to our own passions and then let Him resurrect us to new passions led by His Holy Spirit. Today, follow what Paul finishes his thoughts with, "Since we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit's leading in every part of our lives."
TODAY'S PRAYER Dear Holy Spirit, I surrender to You. Today, I choose to die to my own passions and follow Your leading in every part of my life. AMEN
