(1 Peter 1:10-11) “….they prophesied about this gracious Salvation… They wondered about what the SPIRIT of CHRIST within them was talking about when He told them in advance about Christ’s suffering and His great Glory afterward.”
(Acts 16: 6-7) “….the HOLY SPIRIT prevented Paul and Silas from preaching the Word in the province of Asia at that time…” Again, “…the SPIRIT of JESUS did not allow them to go to the province of Bithynia.”
This shows that if you truly seek to follow God’s Will and guidance in everyday life, His HOLY SPIRIT will prompt you to move in a particular direction and also give you discerning wisdom to prevent actions.
The Holy Spirit prompts you not to say something unkind, not to take the wrong job because your Father has a better one for you, or not to make a purchase that you will regret and be unable to change. These are just examples of His Loving intervention into your daily life, if you will truly commit to seek His help and guidance to accomplish the Father’s Will in the Authority of Jesus Christ.
The ministry of the Holy Spirit provides a way out of anxiety and indecision. (Psalm 32: 8) says, “I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide you with My eye.”
And (Isaiah 30:21) says, “Your ears shall hear a word behind you saying, ‘This is the way, walk in it.'” In a moment of INDECISION, your Shepherd through the Holy Spirit, will show you the way.
“I will bless the Lord who guides me; even at night His Spirit instructs me. I know the Lord is always with me. I will not be shaken, for He is right beside me. My heart is glad; I rejoice. My body rests in peaceful assurance” (Psalm 16: 7-9).
If you truly seek to follow God’s Will and guidance in everyday life, His Holy Spirit will prompt you to move in a particular direction and also give you discerning wisdom to prevent actions.
