“If the Spirit is the source of our life, we must also allow the Spirit to direct every aspect of our lives.”
Galatians 5:25 TPT
I have just finished reading a David Wilkinson book written in 1995. More of Jesus was its thrust. He dealt with the spirit of the age and the need to be holy unto the Lord.
Being back in Australia and staying with two different friends, I see the spirit of the age at work. I went for a walk with the current friend and could tell that all the inhabitants were inside in front of their TVs. There is nothing but worldly rubbish on the TVs. There seems to be a compulsion to buy more junk to fill houses already overflowing with stuff they do not need, which turns into rubbish for family to move and remove.
Unbelief is a big problem. Faith is lacking and desperately needed. The source of faith is:
Faith comes by hearing and hearing the word of God (Romans 10:19). The Bible needs to be read.
If we allow the Spirit to direct and control our lives we walk in the Spirit and deny the flesh. The flesh is full of nasty attitudes, whereas in the spirit there is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22,23) Amen!
