PHASE 3 – SHARE THE JOURNEY

The problem is not how to discover what love looks like, but how to

love by the Spirit. This is absolutely crucial that, if we came to life

by the Spirit, then we need to learn how to walk by the Spirit and in

doing that, it is inseparable from loving in the Spirit. For many a

believer there has been a separation of their walk with God and

their love for man kind. How can you walk in the Spirit and not love

in the Spirit. Is God confused? Surely not. It is us, we need to

conform to the will of God through His Holy Spirit.

Walking in the Spirit is being relevant all the way to ground roots.

Not walking with our spiritual noses in the air and tripping over

those who God loves. NO.

Even Jesus being led by the Holy Spirit was relevant all the way

from kings to peasants.

Some guidelines on how to walk in the Spirit.

1. Set your minds on the things of the Spirit

Romans 8:5 Those who are dominated by the sinful nature

think about sinful things, but those who are controlled by the

Holy Spirit think about things that please the Spirit.

Remember that it is ones thoughts that leads you to action.

So consider what fills your mind.

2. Put to death the deeds of the body by the Spirit

Romans 8:13 For if you live by its dictates, you will die. But if

through the power of the Spirit you put to death the deeds

of your sinful nature, you will live.

The person who has been regenerated by the Spirit is not

stuck in sin. By through the Spirit one can resist the pull of the

flesh.
