As a child of God, the Spirit of God is in your life to lead and guide you through life. He knows God’s perfect will for you; He can guide you away from defeat, failure, and anything that hurts. Learn to live according to the Spirit. That’s the reason John said we should walk in the light as He is in the light (1 John 1:7). Moreover, Jesus said, “...I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness but have the light of life” (John 8:12).
Walking in the Spirit is walking in the light of God’s Word. When you walk in the Spirit, no matter what your senses tell you, you’ll be able to discern which direction God wants you to go. Let Him guide you. In your schoolwork and with your future career choice, He can tell you what to do; He’ll do the same with your family, health, finances, and other areas of your life. All you need is to yield to Him. He’s your protection, shield, courage, and strength. He’s your ability!
Christians whose lives are full of struggles have one major problem: they’re yet to allow the Holy Spirit to fully take over their lives. You were brought into an extraordinary life of rest, glory, endless possibilities and victories when you were born again, and the One to lead and guide you in the path God ordained for you to walk, is the Holy Spirit!
When He’s in charge of your life, circumstances and situations will always work in your favor. He’ll bring perfection to your life. He’ll cause you to grow from strength to strength, from grace to grace, from faith to faith, and from one level of greatness to another. Trust Him with your life.
