PART 4: SEPARATE YOURSELF FROM THE WORLD LET THE SPIRIT DIRECT YOUR LIFE

 PART 4: SEPARATE YOURSELF FROM THE
WORLD LET THE SPIRIT DIRECT YOUR LIFE
(Galatians 5: 16-25 “what I say is this: Let the spirit
direct your lives, and you will not satisfy the
desires of the human nature. For what our human
nature wants is opposed to what the spirit wants,
these two are enemies, and this means that you
cannot do what you want to do. If the spirit leads
you, then you are not subject to the law.
What human nature does is quite plain. It shows
itself in immoral, filthy, and indecent actions; in
worship of idols and witchcraft. People become
enemies and they fight; they become jealous, angry, and ambitious. They separate into parties
and groups; they are envious, get drunk, have
orgies and do other things like this. I warn you as I
have before: those who do these things will not
possess the kingdom of God
But the spirit produces love, joy, peace, patience,
kindness, goodness, faithfulness, humility, and
self-control. There is no law against such things as
these. And those who belong to Christ have put to
death their human nature with all its passions and
desires. The spirit has given us life: he must also
control our lives”.

PART 3: THE FOOD THAT THE BABY HAS TO EAT

PART 3: THE FOOD THAT THE BABY HAS TO EAT

(SPIRITUAL FOOD) (SPIRITUAL FOOD)

Now that you are still young it is not yet time for

you to eat the solid food, you have to drink milk. I

am sure you are wondering and asking yourself

what I am talking about. Well drinking milk has

everything to do with studying your bible and

memorising the scriptures you have read, and solid

food on the other hand is living by the scriptures

you have studied.

You know that when a baby cries He/she is

probably hungry. It is exactly like that with the

spirit. Let’s say for example you wake up at six

A.M in the morning. Before you do anything when

you get out of bed, find a nice and quiet place in

your home. Study your bible for about 30 minutes. I

advise you to focus on the New Testament. I am

going to give you some scriptures that I used to

study as I was spiritually growing. Ok number one I

highly alert you to start with the Romans in the

morning, at the afternoon Hebrews and at night

Colossians.

Reasons for choosing the above scriptures:

There are very important aspect that I have

highlighted for you.


Romans - tells us how we are put right with God,
dying to sin but living in union with Christ and life
in the spirit.

Hebrews 6:4-6 tells us the warning against
abandoning the faith. We as the flesh have this
mentality of thinking that Christ died for us on the
gross and that’s that. Satan has got us thinking
that if Christ died for us on the gross we can keep
on sinning, and repenting all the time. No that is
wrong every time you repent “verse 6 - you are
again crucifying the son of God and exposing him
to public shame”. The scripture is telling us that It
is very dangerous to repent and then go back to sin
again. This is what we normally do during the
festive seasons. When families meet and we get
involved in alcohol. We encourage ourselves by
saying that it is the time when everybody
celebrates. And that we will start afresh at the
beginning of the New Year.

Colossians – Colossians Teachers us of the
fullness of life in Christ Jesus, the old life and the
new and the personal Relations in the new life.

Do not let the spirit go hungry meaning that you
don’t try to skip your bible study. Just remember
what it feels like when you are hungry, every time
when you eat remember that he also wants some

food.

PART 2: What must I do if I want to become a born again Christian? born again Christian?

Becoming a born again Christian (a new born baby)
is very simple. You just need to say this prayer:
“God, I know that I have sinned against you and am
deserving of punishment. But Jesus Christ took the
punishment that I deserve so that through faith in
him I could be forgiven. I place my trust in you for
salvation. Thank you for your wonderful grace and
forgiveness- the gift of eternal life! At that very
moment you said Amen you have died to yourself
and are transformed into a new born baby. Or you
can go to your church and ask the pastor to pray
with you.
You have to understand that now you have
awakened the spirit that God poured in your heart.
Remember that now the Holy Spirit is your helper
he is the one that will guide and lead you
according to the purpose of God. As it is said in
(Ephesians 1:11” all things are done according to
God’s plan and decision; and God chose us to be
his own people in union with Christ because of his
own purpose”)

Now that you have been born again do not
continue to sin, sin no longer has power over you,
as it is said in (Romans 6:6-7 “And we know that
our old being has been put to death with Christ on
the gross, in order that the power of the sinful self
might be destroyed, so that we should no longer be
the slaves of sin. For when people die, they are set
free from the power of sin.
(Colossians 3:5-10 you must put to death, then, the
earthly desires at work in you, such as sexual
immorality, indecency, lust, evil passions, and
greed (for greed is a form of idolatry). Because of
such things God’s anger will come upon those who
do not obey him. At one time you yourselves used
to live according to such desires, when your life
was dominated by them.
But now you must get rid of all those things: anger,
passion, hateful feelings. No insults or obscene
talk must ever come from your lips. Do not lie to
one another, for you have taken off the old self
with its habits and have put on a new self. This is
the being which God is its creator, and is
constantly renewing in his own image, in order to
bring you to a full knowledge of himself.
