The Spirit Said

2023-01-18

Then the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot. (Acts 8:29)

Oh, to be that in tune with the Lord that you can hear explicitly what He wants you to do. Here, Philip heard the Spirit tell him to go to the chariot and share the gospel with a man from out of town. He led him to the Lord.

The Scripture gives us the objective knowledge of God and the Gospel. The Scriptures, however, do not give us specific details about our own lives. We are not mentioned by name in there. However, if we know and meditate on the Word, the Spirit leads us in our subjective experience. When we seek Him with a renewed mind and have relinquished strongholds we once withheld from the Lord, He speaks most clearly. When we with our own agendas and desires are completely out of the way, then the Lord leads according to His will.
