The Witness

The Scripture phrase God showed me as I sought Him concerning how to be led by the Spirit. I realized that had been the way I had determined which message God would have me preach. I would pray and seek God until, on the inside of me, it just seemed good to preach a particular message. I couldn't really explain it, but I knew it was how God was leading me in what subjects to preach. I saw in Scripture this was also the same "leading" Luke had to write down the Gospel of Luke. And also how some important decisions were made in the early days of the Church. They described it as "it seemed good." Obviously, an immature believer could easily use this as an excuse for their behavior, saying it just "seemed good to them." But we are not talking about something seeming good to
your flesh or your mind, but to your innermost being, your spirit where God dwells which is in the hearts of those that have accept Christ as their Lord and Savior. And we must always remember that the Holy Spirit will never lead us to do anything that is not in line with God's written Word, the Bible, which was given to us to assist us and guide us. God has a plan for guiding His children in all the questions of life.



 The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God (Roman 8:16).
