“I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.” Galatians 5:16-26(NKJV)
Listen to God:
First of all we got to learn to listen to God’s voice. When you quieten yourself from other noises around you and the noises inside you and start communicating with God you can hear Him clearly. God is waiting for you to talk to you all the time. Remember He is omnipresent God and He has come as Holy Spirit to be inside of us all the time. So it is only us who do not talk to Him, consult Him and get best advices from Him. Write all down and make a journal with what you hear.
Jesus said, “But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.””John 4:23-24 (NKJV)
God is Spirit so He communicates with us in our spirits. Many worships are happening among Christians that are in their soul and body; but Father God wants us to worship Him in the spirit. So we must worship and communicate with God spirit to Spirit.
Obey God’s instructions:
One thing is to ask God what to do and the other is to obey what He says to do. Many fail in obeying the instructions they get than listening to Him. Because first of all, most of the instructions we already have as ‘Logos’ in the written Word of God: which are the laws of God and we have to find out all and obey them all. We can also get fresh ‘Rhema’ words which you will get as specific instructions, if you ask of the Lord, to solve specific problems that are not the written Word of God but God talking to you directly. This we have to obey immediately to find success. This is the way we walk in the spirit.
God spoke to Peter in a vision and communicated with Him. Acts 10:9-16(NKJV) Lord appeared to Paul many times to give clear instructions, telling what to do. Acts 22:17-21(NKJV) ; Acts 23:10-11(NKJV). God likes to communicate to us also the same way and all we got to do is to expect Him to speak to us in visions and in person.
Let us come to deeper relationship with the Lord God by walking in the spirit. Your spirit is the Holy of Holies where God dwells.
