Tamed by the spirit


If I have never mentioned this before let me say it now, I am the worst possible person you can ask for directions in case you get lost. My friends have made fun of me till I can take it no more, they simply laugh at me. I must say though my direction skills, of course with the lord’s help, have improved tremendously. I still have a habit of taking the longer but familiar route than the new short cut someone showed me or told me of.  Have you been in situation where some route became so natural to you that you can walk without even paying attention to where you are going? It was almost like your legs were leading you to the place you needed to go. Wow so cool eh?!

 Can you imagine being so used to walking in the spirit that He, the Holy Spirit, will just take you where you needed to go without thinking about it? Can you imagine if listening to God’s voice and being led by the sprit became so natural that it didn’t require a thought process?  One thing I am sure about is that it can be done! I am not completely there myself, but the lord is teaching me to listen to His voice one whisper at a time.  Let me prove to you (Using Scripture of course) that it could be done! First step ask the Lord; “Direct my footsteps according to your word; let no sin rule over me” Psalms 119:133. Second step watch the lord work; “My steps have held to your paths; my feet have not slipped.” Psalms 17:5. I am sure you are saying, Rodas it’s not as simple as that, it’s not like a cook book for making the perfect cake! However, Let us move over to New Testament and see if that answers your question/s and replaces your doubt/concern with encouragement. "But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come.” John 16:13. Do you now see how it is possible! Jesus promised us the Holy Spirit, The Helper, The One who will Guide us to ALL TRUTH!!! What truth is that? Truth of God, to Jesus Christ Himself (HE is the Truth the life and the Way! John 14:6). Be encouraged it can be done!

Note:
  • It is possible to always walk in the spirit
  • It is possible to have our steps guided by God and it can become very natural
  • We can be guided to ALL TRUTH!
Stay Blessed<3

Sermon by Jentezen Franklin: Spirit of Python: Teaching Angels to Worship

When you are going to hell/trails and you worship is when you can teach the Angels to Worship :) 1) God is Spirit : the Spirit is looking for people who will worship Him in truth and In spirit. *In Truth: the right truth (Jesus : see John 14:6) * In Spirit: even during trails we need to be in the spirit of Joy, Faith, Hope and Love "God is spirit,  and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth.” John 4:24 2) God can make something out of nothing : before God spoke the world into motion it was nothing. He took what was nothing made it into something. He also hung it on nothing, there is nothing that holds the universe in place! “Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation?      Tell me, if you understand." Job 38:4 How and when can we teach worship to the Angels? Angels Vs. Us Angels 1) Angels have never been nor will they ever be under the course of sin 2) They live in a perfect place (Heaven) 3) The fir...

He is a Better Planner!

I did not mean to take the whole summer off from blogging it just so happen to be that way. Partly due to the numerous things that were changing in my life but more so due to lack of better planning/ time blocking. One of the highlights of my summer was becoming a Mrs. I never knew the weight the pre-fix would carry until I heard someone address me as such. I don't know about you but the Amharic word is, even more, weightier, "ወይዘሮ/weyizero"!. That was one of my life updates. Now that I said that, let's get to the meat and potatoes of my post... I have said before that I am a recovering perfectionist. Today, I stand before you confirming that statement still rings true in my life. I confess, somedays, I face some battles as if I had never before and get frustrated because I haven't gotten perfect at not being a perfectionist! You see the irony...   Tracing back where my want/need to be perfectionist came from, I was surprised to find out that it was linked to ...
