Once you're saved it's all about the holy spirit

As a Believer, God's own Spirit the same Spirit that lived in Jesus and empowered Him throughout His ministry came to live in you to continue Jesus work on Earth

Do you understand the magnitude of this?
 

  In the Old Testament God predestined and chose certain people to carry out His work. People like Moses, Noah, David, Joshua, Abraham were blessed with God's Spirit guiding them and working through them.

 But after Jesus was crucified, resurrected and ascended into Heaven that ALL changed.
God has now chosen and predestined EVERYONE who accepts Jesus to continue His ministry on Earth. Everyone that accepts Jesus receives God's Spirit to guide them and work through them just like God's Spirit did with Moses, Noah, David, Joshua, Jesus, etc.

Seem impossible? Let's see what the BIBLE says.  

Once you are saved it then becomes ALL about the Holy Spirit living in you.
God's own Spirit the same Spirit that lived in Jesus and empowered Him throughout His ministry came to live in you when you accepted Jesus as your Savior. Do you understand the magnitude of this?
 

You became a New Creation, a New Man in CHRIST when you accepted Jesus as your Savior. You're not new in the flesh, but in the Spirit, because of the Holy Spirit is now living in you.
 

God's Spirit lives in you so that His Fruit and Gifts can flow through you to manifest to others. 

In the Old Testament God chose certain people to carry out His work. They were predestined. People like Moses, Noah, David, Joshua, Abraham were blessed with God's Spirit guiding them and working through them.

 But after Jesus was crucified, resurrected and ascended into Heaven that ALL changed.
God has now chosen and predestined EVERYONE who accepts Jesus to continue His ministry on Earth. Everyone that accepts Jesus receives God's Spirit to guide them and work through them just like God's Spirit did with Moses, Noah, David, Joshua, Jesus, etc.
 

In fact Jesus actually said  in John 14:12 NKJV:  “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father."

WOW. Do you grasp the ramifications of Jesus statement, His promise? Jesus KNEW when He ascended to Heaven God's Spirit would come to live in every Believer and work through them as He did in Jesus (and the predestined men of the Old Testament).

In Mark 16:17-20 Jesus was saying that anyone who believes in Him will be saved and…… 17 And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; 18 they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.” 19 So then, after the Lord had spoken to them, He was received up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God. 20 And they went out and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word through the accompanying signs. Amen.

Ephesians 1:3 NKJV:    “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,” (We are being told as believers we are blessed with every Spiritual Blessing in Heaven)

 Then with all of the Bible verses documenting what I stated above why aren't Christian's walking DAILY in the POWER, AUTHORITY, FRUIT and GIFTS of the Holy Spirit living in them?
 

Most Christian's are being TAUGHT to try, practice and act out in their flesh (their own skills, abilities, personality, emotions and thoughts) to show people kindness, goodness, love and gentleness.

To be at peace, have faith, joy, patience and self-control.

 There is nothing wrong with people trying to be better. BUT there IS a problem with it, “IF” they are not relying on the Holy Spirit to manifest His Fruit through them. The Fruit of the Spirit IS every characteristic I listed above: Love, Joy, Peace, Faith, Goodness, Gentleness, Kindness, Patience and Self-Control. This is the Fruit of the Holy Spirit that we should be experiencing manifesting through us to others. Not by our own strength, will power, skills or abilities, but by God.

The Bible in Romans 8:1 KJV says “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.” (we can live free of condemnation IF we walk in the Spirit and not the flesh).

You see the problem is MOST Christians NEVER took the next step after accepting Jesus. They probably were never taught what to do, so they continue to live in their old life, their old fleshly ways. But the Bible says that has changed, remember we are a new creation. 

Romans 8:9 NIV -   "You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh but are in the realm of the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. "

We are told to STOP living in the flesh, to STOP sinning and live by the Spirit.

Galatians 5:16, 19-23 NKJV -  16 I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.  

19 Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, 21 envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering (meaning patience), kindness, goodness, faithfulness (meaning faith), 23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. 

(Galatians 5 makes it clear and spells out, the sinful nature of the flesh and we are told to STOP living in sin and to live by the Spirit). In fact in Hebrews chapter 10, there are some serious warnings if we continue to willfully sin. 

So how do we complete the Transformation from living by the flesh, to living by the Spirit so that we can receive all of the benefits and promises, that God has made to us in the Bible?

We must draw closer and closer to God to allow the Spirit to flow and manifest His fruit and gifts through us. Then:

Romans 12:2 NKJV - And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.(we must renew our mind – we must WANT and DESIRE to live by the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit will not force Himself on anyone, God gave us Free Will and it is up to us to activate it.

Galatians 5:22- 25: 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, k kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 [g]gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. 24 And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. 

(this is done by surrendering our will to God and allowing the Holy Spirit to guide us).

I would like to share my prayer with you that I say multiple times during the day, to help renew my mind and to focus and meditate on the promises of God that I am desiring, the promise of having the Holy Spirit manifest His fruit and gifts through me to change people’s lives and do God’s work.

My personal declaration of faith prayer as a Believer:

Heavenly Father I surrender my will completely to you, so that i can be your vessel. 

I accept and believe in faith as your child that your Spirit, the same Spirit that lived in Jesus and empowered His ministry lives in me and I believe in faith your Fruit and Gifts will flow in me and through me and manifest to change people’s lives as your Spirit did through Jesus. 

I believe in faith as the Bible states your Spirit will do the same works through me and even greater works than Jesus did, because He is now with you and your Spirit is in me.

Father I thank you for using me as your vessel in Jesus name, Amen.
