As Believers we should be aware that God's spirit, through the virtues of Jesus Christ, now permanently resides in our hearts. In St. John's Gospel, Jesus said to His disciples right before He was crucified...."𝑰 𝒘𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒂𝒔𝒌 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑭𝒂𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓, 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑯𝒆 𝒘𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒈𝒊𝒗𝒆 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒂𝒏𝒐𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒓 𝑪𝒐𝒖𝒏𝒔𝒆𝒍𝒐𝒓, 𝒘𝒉𝒐 𝒘𝒊𝒍𝒍 𝒏𝒆𝒗𝒆𝒓 𝒍𝒆𝒂𝒗𝒆 𝒚𝒐𝒖".

 

 

 

Now, if we have God's spirit in us, what are the proofs and expressions of the Spirit? What traits does it produce? 

Apostle Paul reveals to us, in His Epistle to the church in Galatia, the answer....

"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, (which brings forth) joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. [Galatians 5:22-23 (KJV)].

 

  


Anything done that doesn't have or isn't driven by God's love cannot be inspired by His Spirit. The evidence of God to the world is His love manifested in and through us, via His Spirit. 

 

 

 

It is very impossible to habour hate or grudges in your heart and be filled with the Spirit. It's impossible to curse someone and be filled with the Spirit. The fact is that God's spirit can never inspire you to do something bad to another person. It specifically expresses Love.

 

  

 

In 1Corithians 13, we see the manner in which God's love is depicted.

  

 

.

If you are consistently being filled with the Spirit, you will begin to adopt and express it's traits with ease. God's spirit in you will make you to love more and will eradicate any hate you feel.

"For with God, nothing is impossible".

  "For with God, nothing is impossible". If it was possible for the sin of one man to make you a sinner, then it's not impossible for the righteousness of one man to make you righteous.   If it was possible for you to be doomed for Hell because of one man's sin, it's possible for you to be saved by one man's resurrection.     The Old man was of a sinful nature but the New creation man is of an Immortal, incorruptible and righteous nature.      Those who are born again are not born in or of the flesh but of the Spirit. There are not born of the Earthly but of the Heavenly. They are not born of Man but of God!   When you judge your nature by the understanding of the flesh, you misinterpret and misunderstand who you really are.     You are righteous. You are Holy. You are without blemish or spots. God is pleased with you. You are the Righteousness of God.   That's who you really are!   How did it all happen? "For with God, nothing...

The motive for being good

I was thinking....     "A good deed is its own reward". A very normal yet life-changing statement. My mom made this statement to me years back and it'll always be a code I stand by.     Building your mindset on this very statement as a Believer is probably one of the best ways to show how good Jesus is. It also proves that you have offered yourself as a living sacrifice to God.     It may look very casual or common to others but it shouldn't be for us... It's an integral part of our Christianity.       Our Lord, Jesus, and the Apostles of the new testament highly emphasized on showing charity, kindness and goodness to others.       Jesus gave us an example to follow... St. John 13:14-15 "And since I, the Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash each other's feet. I have given you an example to follow. Do as I have done to you." [NLT]     Apostle Paul emphasized on it... Ephesian...

THE TRUE PLAN AND INTENTION OF GOD

 TRUE PLAN AND INTENTION OF GOD Romans 9:22  And the same is true of what God has done. He wanted to show his anger and to make his power known. But he was very patient in enduring those who were the objects of his anger, who were doomed to destruction. Romans 9:23  And he also wanted to reveal his abundant glory, which was poured out on us who are the objects of his mercy, those of us whom he has prepared to receive his glory. During the time of the Law, God was supposed to show his anger to Man for their sins but he was very patient.  What is God's anger? The departure of his presence. He would leave those that has rejected Him. Outside of God is destruction. God knew that we were doomed for destruction. Due to the greatness and richness of love he has for us, he focused more on getting us saved than our flaws.  "He is not slow in fulfilling his promises but he is patient, that all may come to repentance." God's plan has also been to show us his abundance of G...
