We do so as orphans

If we try to attempt to live the Christian life without the Holy Spirit, we do so as orphans. Jesus provided the Holy Spirit to meet our needs, but we must welcome Him into our lives and acknowledge our dependency on Him. Jesus called the Holy Spirit a “Helper” in John 14: 25–26:

Inspired byThe Holy Spirit

Jesus Christ never penned a word; He left to His apostles the task of recording His life and conveying His teachings in the Epistles. We can rely on the accuracy of their writings, not because they were infallible authors, but because they were authors inspired by the Holy Spirit who brought to mind Jesus’ teachings. Amen!

Under our strength we fail

Always be aware that under our own strength and wisdom we will fail; neither education nor financial resources will suffice. Only by the supernatural power of the Holy Spirit can we live the type of life God expects of us. Amen!

Discernment

Discernment comes with practice, time and with prolonged studying of the Word of God.

Difference between the soul and the spirit

Let's understand the difference between the soul and the spirit. The soul is essentially the ego. Soulish people are egocentric, concerned exclusively with themselves. While the spiritual person asks, “How can I glorify God?” the soulish person asks, “What’s in it for me?” The contemporary church caters too often to this quest of personal gain instead of God’s glory. This is the real truth of the apostasy of the current church.
In 1 Corinthians 2: 14–15, Paul wrote, But the natural soulish man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is rightly judged by no one. Did you know that we are composed by Body, Soul and spirit?

Having seen preacher's for many years, I have seen soulish appeals to emotion that move people to tears and make them excited—without changing them spiritually . One week later, they are usually the same person with the same problem, totally empty and still without the real Joy of Christ. It is lamentable how many churches, pastors, evangelist specialize in the realm of the soul rather than in the realm of the spirit. People in the soulish realm are carried away with little effort, setting themselves up for deception. I always remind you don't set your eyes on man because he will always fail you but set your sight on the Word of Christ.

Above all God is Holy!

Many people view God as a casual friend or a close buddy. He does invite our fellowship and communion with Him, but we must never lose the perspective and a sense of awe of God’s holiness.

Conviction of sin.

One ministry of the Holy Spirit is convicting us of sin. Where the conviction is lacking, the work of the Holy Spirit is most likely is lacking, as well. Be aware to not being sensitive and obedient to the Holy Spirit.

satan leads people astray

Remember Satan leads people astray, by encouraging them to love anything—money, pleasure, power, family, sons or daughters or themselves—more than they love God. As the perversion of something meant for good, misplaced love can make us candidates for Satan’s deception. Please don't let yourself be deceived. Love God first and above all and with all your heart. Show your love to God by being His hands and feet. Help someone in need without expecting any recognition from man but do it in secret so its written in the book of life. Go ahead help someone in need!

Read Isaiah 14: 12–15.)
“How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.”

He Corrupts

Satan takes what is good, wholesome and pure, turning it into an instrument of our own deception and demise.

satan's tactics

Satan’s rules and tactics extends only to those that are disobedient to God, however; when men and women return to God with true repentance, faith, and submission, they sever Satan’s legal claim over them and their lives. Surrender your life to Jesus Christ and you will know what true freedom and peace is. God bless you all!
