Follow after the Spirit

Judges 21:25

  Because there was not a king in Israel, and the people did as they thought was right in their own eyes. That reminds me of a true proverb, “There is a way that seems right, but the ways thereof are ways of death and destruction”! These people were deceiving themselves, believing that they could do whatever seemed right for them to do and no doubt justified everything they doe! Sound familiar? Secular humanists of our day tell us do whatever feels good; as long as it don’t hurt anyone else, you’ll be all right honey! There is a way that seems right unto a man; but the ways thereof are the ways of death and destruction follows after them! So we see that this problem is still prevalent in today’ society as well. People believe they can do wrong and get by! It’s the “New Age” religion. It is a movement under the guise of secular humanism this religion will tell you, it’s your thang, do what you what to do, James Brown (The God Father of Soul) went to his grave preaching that message through song! They also say that no one person can tell you how that you must live…if they do they are simply being too judgmental!

 Another Proverb comes to mind as I studied over these scriptures. “A backslider in his heart is full of his own ways” The people of Nineveh were spiritually ignorant; God Himself said they could not distinguish their left hand from their right. Ignorance is no excuse! We will stand before God inexcusable! There will be no one who stands before Him and say I’m sorry I didn’t know any better! But if we follow after the Spirit we will not fulfill the lust of the flesh. In the message “What kind of star, are you following? I told folks that we are following after things that have no lasting value! We are follow after the star of God’s Spirit…people have many stars they follow after and imitate, they call them role models, even in the religious community blind leaders of the blind and they have all fallen in the ditch together!

  This message taught me a lot about walking in the Spirit that I never really noticed before; about the leadership of the spirit, walking in the Spirit. Still Satan stands back and grins, that old snake in the grass! I’m sick and tired of his lies!!! The media of today tells us “Go for it” “just do it” “No Fear” there are no consequences for your actions…a loving God could never send anyone to hell for eternity! I am the first partaker of this fruit of this Holy Inspired Word! (Things I am telling you will cause you to bear fruit if you will listen to me) follow me as I follow Christ, but the very first time you see me going astray look unto Jesus the author and finisher of your faith. The leadership of your Church is responsible for preaching you the truth that will make you free, they watch over your souls…always put your trust in God but have confidence in your fellow man.

  Where there is no law there is lawlessness and anarchy, where there is no order there is nothing but chaos and utter confusion! God is not the author of any of that stuff! Man was not created to rule over himself, but that God should reign supreme over all!
