Awesome Master Teacher, You are our Teacher in Jesus' Name...Before Jesus Christ ascended to heaven, He told His disciples that He would send One who would Teach and guide all those who believe in Him ( Acts 1:5; ) ( John 14:26; 16:7 ). Jesus our Lord’ Promise was fulfilled less than two weeks later when the Holy Spirit came in power on and in the believers at Pentecost ( Acts 2 ). Now, when a person believes in Christ, the Holy Spirit immediately becomes a permanent part of his or her life ( Romans 8:14;) ( 1 Corinthians 12:13;) ( Ephesians 1:13–14 ).
The Holy Spirit has many functions. Not only does He distribute Spiritual gifts according to His will ( 1 Corinthians 12:7–11 ), But He also comforts us ( John 14:16, ), teaches us ( John 14:26 ), and remains in us as a seal of Promise upon our hearts until the day of Jesus Christ’s return ( Ephesians 1:13; 4:30 ). The Holy Spirit also takes on the role of Guide and Counselor, leading us in The Way we should go and revealing God’s truth ( Luke 12:12; ) ( 1 Corinthians 2:6–10).
But how do we as His Church recognize The Holy Spirit’s guidance? How do we discern between our own thoughts and His leading? After all, The Holy Spirit does at times speak with audible words. He guides us through the spiritual person ( Romans 9:1 ) and other quiet, subtle ways.
One of the most important ways to recognize The Holy Spirit’s guidance is to be familiar with God’s Holy Word. The Bible is the ultimate source of wisdom about how we should live ( 2 Timothy 3:16 ), and believers are to search The Scriptures, meditate on them, and commit them to memory if possible ( Joshua 1:8 ). The Word is the “Sword of The Spirit” ( Ephesians 6:17 ), and The Spirit will use it to speak to us ( John 16:12–14 ) to reveal God’s will for our lives; He will also bring specific Scriptures to mind at times when we need them most ( John 14:26) .
The Knowledge of God’s Word will help us to discern whether or not our desires come from The Holy Spirit. We must test our inclinations against The Scriptures, The Holy Spirit will never prod us to do anything contrary to God’s Holy Word. If it conflicts with God's Word, then it is not from the Holy Spirit and should be ignored.
It is also necessary for us to be in continual prayer with The Father ( 1 Thessalonians 5:17 ). Not only does this keep our hearts and minds open to The Holy Spirit’s leading, but it also allows The Spirit to speak on our behalf: “In the same way, The Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but The Spirit Himself intercedes for us through wordless groans. And He who searches our hearts knows the mind of The Spirit because The Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God” ( Romans 8:26–27 ).
Another way to tell if we are following The Spirit’s leading is to look for signs of His fruit in our lives ( Galatians 5:22–23 ). If we walk in The Spirit, we will continue to see these qualities grow and mature in us, and they will become evident to others as well.
My spiritual Holy Spirit anointed and filled Brothers and Sisters, It is important to note that we have the choice whether or not to accept The Holy Spirit’s guidance. When we know the will of God but do not follow it, we are resisting the Spirit’s work in our lives (Acts 7:51; 1 Thessalonians 5:19), and a desire to follow our own way grieves Him (Ephesians 4:30). The Spirit will never lead us into sin. Habitual sin will cause us to miss what the Holy Spirit wants to say to us through the Word. Being in tune with God’s will, turning from and confessing sin, and making a habit of prayer and the study of God’s Word will allow us to recognize, and follow the Spirit’s leading. Amen.
