You Cannot Over Depend On Him

Hello everyone,

You cannot over depend on the Holy Spirit for direction. As you study and meditate on the Word of God, you gain knowledge of God, how powerful He His, and then you see all that Jesus through love has done for us, seeing Him as the only One we can place our lives in, and on and on. But the Holy Spirit comes in by using the Word we meditated on to direct us to God’s plans and purposes for our lives, how we would make use of it here on earth. He makes us understand the importance of the Word of God, and on and on. Yes, we now know what we are meant to do, but knowing what to do is what to do is one thing, knowing how to do it is another, and the “how” is what many of us don’t really ask. All we do is cry for help when we are stuck after doing things our way, which shouldn’t be the case.

We should understand that what it means to make Jesus the Lord of your life means, you want Him to live through you. For as the Bible says that we have been crucified with Christ, we were actually crucified. And a new person now lives in us, the One who is our new life—Jesus Christ, (ref.: 2 Corinthians 5:17; Galatians 2:20).

We only received the plans and purposes for our lives, to know what God has for us since He is the designer, He is the One to lead us all the way. Knowing what to do is one thing, but knowing how to do it is another. The Word of God tells us how to do the things God has called us to do, which is further explained by the Holy Spirit, which implies that we must be guided by the Holy Spirit at all times. Even when we have ideas, we must confirm if it falls in line with God’s plan for us.

When we get stuck in financial debt and don’t know what to do, believing Jesus has the solution is one thing to hold on to, but we need to ask Him how to get out of this mess, thus asking Him what you are meant to do.

 Treat the Holy Spirit as a person you can always go to for guidance for everything literally. You cannot over depend on Him, in fact, that is what He wants you to do, to depend on Him at all times. He is also there to train you so that when you face a situation, based on the training He gave you, you know what to do, and how to do it, which is not based on your human knowledge. Trust Jesus and you’ll see that He had set you free from bondage all along, all you had to do was ask, seek, and knock.

May the LORD bless you and keep you, make His face shine upon you. May the LORD be gracious to you and lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace. AMEN.
                    

Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!
