Following the Holy Spirit.

According to Charles Swindoll in his book “Embraced By The Spirit”, there are four (4) pre-requisites to the Holy Spirit’s leading.

1.  YOU MUST BE A CHRISTIAN!  Rom 8:14
      When you accept Christ as the Savior and Master of your life, the Holy Spirit comes    
       To live within you.
2.  YOU MUST BE WISE!   Eph 5:15-16
      Following the will of God requires wisdom - the art of skillful living and some good 
      Old common sense
3.  YOU MUST REALLY WANT TO FOLLOW THE LORD’S LEADING!  John 7:17
      More than completing your education, more than getting married, more than getting        
      Out of debt - more than anything else, you want to do the will of God!
4.  YOU MUST BE WILLING TO PRAY AND TO WAIT!   1 John 5:14-15
      There are times when knowing and then following the will of God can be a lengthy 
       And painful process.

Ask yourself the following questions.

HOW MUCH DO I WANT TO LISTEN TO THE HOLY SPIRIT?
HOW MUCH DO I WANT TO GE GUIDED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT?

God is willing, Are you??????
