The Holy Spirit, Our Inward Witness: The Gentle Guide Within
Man is a supernatural being.
God placed us in a supernatural world—so He could lead us supernaturally.
Proverbs 20:27 says:“The human spirit is the lamp of the Lord that sheds light on one’s inmost being.”When we operate outside of our born-again spirit, we step into the realm where the enemy can deceive.
But the devil cannot interfere with your born-again spirit.
So walk in the Spirit.
Know His leading.
And serve Him according to His will.
Romans 12:11 encourages us:“Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord.”2 Timothy 1:6 says:“Fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands.”Don’t grow cold in the things of God.
Learn His Word.
Feed your spirit.
Become sensitive to the leading of His Spirit. As believers, we receive direction from the Lord. But beware—sometimes emotion can masquerade as revelation.
That’s why we must learn how God truly leads. The inward witness often works when we ask.
Ask, “Is it this? Or is it that?”
And the witness will respond. Don’t become addicted to the spectacular.
The more you wait for signs, the less you may hear the whisper. Learn to expose the facts to the Spirit’s leading.
You may sense a note, a leading, a gentle nudge.
The more you walk in the Spirit, the more sensitive you become to that leading.
The leading of the Spirit is not about success or results.
It’s about alignment with God’s will.
Spiritual growth is tied to learning His voice.
To know the inward witness…
Is to know God's way.
You are a supernatural being.
Even your moods aren’t as natural as they seem.
They’re influenced by what your spirit receives.
So, check in with your spirit.
Be led.
Know the inward witness. Because if you have light, but you're still looking for more light…
You may end up walking in darkness. This week—pause.
Ask.
Listen. Don’t rush past the gentle whisper of the Spirit.
Don`t rush past that impression, that nudging within your Spirit
He is still speaking.
He is still leading.
Will you follow? Because if you're not being led by Him—
You're being led by something else. And only His Spirit leads into truth,
Into peace,
And into purpose.Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):
