Led by the Holy Spirit

(brother Matthew Arin  Adams - www.boilingpointgospelcentre.org) 

To be led by the Holy Spirit is not only the standard but the proof of our Christian genuineness. Christianity in many circles today had been regarded as nothing but a religious assertion accompanied with a great deal of mental accent or intonation; with nothing both spiritual and scriptural to show for it! 

This had caused a total disregard and breakdown to the law of the Spirit; the right of the Spirit of the Lord to fully, genuinely and credibly operate or function in the church.
Jn 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak… KJV “Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.”  (Mt 4:1)

Our Lord Jesus Christ the Author and Finisher of our faith taught us by example. He allowed Himself to be led by the Holy Spirit. When the Holy Spirit is permitted to take the lead in our lives and ministries, this ensue our total submission to His voice; where He leads we will follow. 

He led Jesus into the wilderness to be tempted; to be tried; to be questioned; to be offended; His integrity, genuineness and authenticity to pass through the refining fire. Many a trial we have avoided not knowing it had been the Holy Spirit’s supervision intended to carry us to the next altitude of God’s glory in our lives and ministry.  When our focus in ministry in unquestionable, the desire to be led by the Lord’s Spirit will always be craving delight of our lives.
