He who neglect his spirit will end up governed by a wrong spirit to a terrible end. Obedience to God is being guided by the Spirit.

Obedience to God has to do with our recognizing the importance of God in guiding us to our success (Psalm 23:1). These takes us to the need of we allowing the Spirit of God to govern our spirit. By this, we will live in the fear of God and cultivate our mind to obey what the word of God is saying. The Spirit of God will always lead us to love, to bless and for our favour.

For us to be led by the Lord to our blessings, we need to always acknowledge the Holy Spirit in us (Proverbs 3:5-6). We need to always worship God and pray to him from our heart. We need to regularly meditate on the word of God (Joshua 1:8). That is when our actions can be guided by the Lord. Knowing Bible is not enough, but drinking into the spirit of the word of God. This is what helps us to be able to obey the Lord whenever we are instructed. Peace.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to keep a close relationship with you.
