God's Glory Church

When you walk with a friend, you should keep up with each other. If one of you rushes ahead or lags behind, you are no longer walking together. Something similar happens when it comes to walking with God.

The Apostle Paul said:

“Since the Spirit is the source of our new life, let us follow the Spirit.”
Galatians 5:25

When we trust Jesus as our Savior, we are given the gift of grace and the gift of the Holy Spirit. Simply put, the Holy Spirit is God. God gave us! The Holy Spirit leads, directs and works in us and through us.

There are times when we are tempted to outrun the Spirit. Because, if we’re being honest, He doesn’t always move as fast as we’d like. We may even question whether He moves or whether He cares. This is why walking with God requires patience.

There are other times when we are tempted to fall behind the Spirit. Because sometimes He can lead us somewhere that might make us a little uncomfortable. It requires effort, determination, physical and emotional strength. This is why walking with God takes courage.

We can keep pace with the Spirit by keeping close to Him—attentively, talking to Him, reading His Word, and being in fellowship with those who love Him.

Тому що, коли ми зобов’язуємося триматися близько Нього, одне можна сказати напевно: Святий Дух направлятиме вас на кожному кроці.
