Steemchurch: Living by the spirit's power

in #steemchurch7 years ago

Hello to all steemchurch parishioner, how are you doing and hope you all are doing well. My today topic is living by the spirit's power, as human beings we are differ from animals by the ability to think and to act thoughtfully instead of acting by instinct. Now we are childrencof light, we should therefore be careful to live as wise and thoughtful people not as fools who behave unseemly and instinct. When we live as wise children , we take pains to understand what God want us to do. We are sober in all we do knowing that we are doing what God wants us to do. We are also confident, because we living by faith and not by sight. We are advised in Ephesians 5: 15, (Be very careful, then how you live not as unwise but as wise), to make every effort to use existing opportunities to do good in this evil time. We are also warned as children living in the light not to get intoxicated with anything that will destroy our christian life and witness. Rather, we are to be filled and controlled by the Holy Spirit. The question today is where do you stand in this as christian? What is the purpose of being filled and controlled by the Holy Spirit instead of being drunk with wine. The highest level of life a christian can live is one of praise and thankfulness to God, always and in every circumstance, the scripture refers to such a life as spiritual worship.zcamera-20180526_155733.jpg
