Keep walking by spirit--Gal. 5:16 :rose:
Pretty short and sweet :love: a bit more: :rose:
''You were, of course, called for freedom, brothers; only do not use this freedom as an inducement for the flesh.
For the entire Law stands fulfilled in one saying, namely: ''You must love your neighbor as yourself.
If, though, you keep on biting and devouring one another, look out
that you do not get annihilated by one another.
But I say, Keep walking by spirit and you will carry out no fleshly
desire at all.
For the flesh is against the spirit in its desire, and the spirit against the
flesh; for these are opposed to each other, so that the very things that you would like to do you do not do.
Furthermore, if you are being led by spirit, you are not under law.''
Galations 5: 13-18 ...showing how very important walking by spirit is. It truly helps us to connect with our higher self among other things. :rose: :rose:
''And I will sprinkle upon you clean water, and you will become clean
from all your impurities and you will no longer worship idols and I shall cleanse you.
And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit I shall put inside you, and I will take out your stony, stubborn heart and give you a tender, responsive heart.
And my Spirit I shall put inside you, and I will act so that in my regulations you will walk, and my judicial decisions you will keep and actually carry out.'' Ezekiel 36: 35-27 .... :rose:
''I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate, who will never leave you. He will give you the Holy Spirit, who leads into all truth. The world cannot receive it, because it neither beholds it nor knows it. You know it because it remains with you and is in you.'' John 14: 16,17 :rose:
''But the helper (or Advocate), which the Father will send in my name, that one will teach you all things and bring back to your minds all the things I told you.'' John 14:26 :rose:
''You have received the Holy spirit, and he lives within you, so you
don't need anyone to teach you what is true. For the Spirit teaches you everything you need to know, and what he teaches is true--it is not a lie. So just as he has taught you, remain in fellowship with Christ.'' ---1 James 2:27 ...this seems to me to be a singularly important scripture and is telling us something very profound. It really speaks to me :heartbeat: :rose:
These are beautiful scriptures friends. I hope you find them as rich in depth as I do and that they speak to you as they do me of one of the deeper things of God--Holy Spirit and how we are intricately involved also and all the better for it..... :rose:
have a wonderful evening friends--may all be blessed with God's Holy Spirit :heartbeat::rose: LOve you all :grouphug: :heartbeat:
