Seed for Dec18

Prov 24:16
16 for though a righteous man falls seven times, he rises again, but the wicked are brought down by calamity.
(NIV)

Even though we might fall and fall again, the Lord will raise us up again. The Lord has broken the power of sin in our lives, and empowered us with His Spirit to walk in the Spirit and Light. As we learn to walk, we might stumble, and we might fall, (If any man sin we have an Advocate with the Father), but we know that we can confess, He is faithful and just to forgive and cleanse and we are again to rise to walk in newness of life.

The longer we walk in the Spirit, the better we become at following the leadings and promptings of the Spirit within. If our heart does not convict us, then we can have confidence. Too, many people trying to keep “rules” and not listening to the still small voice within. It is the leading of the heart we must follow. Jesus came breaking all their rules, eating with unwashed hands, healing on the Sabbath, and tempted in all manner common to man, yet without sin!

It is not the keeping of rules that causes us to walk in the Spirit, but the surrendering of will to the Spirit. Walk in the Light as He is in the Light, have fellowship with the brethren and the blood of Jesus is continually keeping us clean of all unrighteousness. We enjoy life and peace. Be blessed.
