Take a walk in the Spirit

Take a walk in the Spirit

I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.









~~~Reflections~~~

The Holy Spirit will be provide you with direction and guide you. While you walk in the Spirit you walk in confidence.. The Holy Spirit will be there to encourage you, and give you instruction on how to live your life, and you will not fear.  You will know where your victory is. Through Jesus Christ our Lord! 

While fasting you need to Plug into the power of prayer and the word of God. Fasting done right can help you to gain control over your fleshly cravings and your fleshly desires. Fasting is to deny the flesh of its natural desires, and replacing it with time with the Lord. It will take self-control and discipline. It's not a walk in the park.

Hunger, cravings and habits are lusts of the flesh, Fasting will help you to develop a stronger relationship and more dependency on God.   Having more of God and less of your self will build self-control, in other areas of your life. Preparing you to face temptations of the flesh in the future. You will form habits of going to the Lord and seeking wisdom and guidance naturally. A chain reaction will begin the enhancing the fruits of the Spirit.

Galatians 5: 22-28
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.  If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.

LORD, I give you thanks for the Fruits of You Holy Spirit. I do want a stronger relationship with you Lord. Enhance the fruits of the Spirit in Me. As I seek you. Help me to Walk in the Spirit, always listening to your instruction. To be an image of you.  In Jesus Christ Name Amen.

A Promise of the Holy Spirit


A Promise of the Holy Spirit


John 7:38
On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink.  He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.”
 But this He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive; for the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.



~~~Reflections~~~

We thirst for more of the Holy Spirit's presence.  A thirst for God will bring you a Season of Spiritual Growth. Even more so when you act on it. Fasting is a great way to get a drink of that Living Water. Fasting is also one of the greatest spiritual warfare weapons, as long as you do it with prayer, word and worship. With out prayer, word and worship fasting is only a diet. When you fast there is an increase of the Lords presence and favor.  If you want to have your heart to flow with rivers of living water, the Holy Spirit, Believe in Jesus. Draw near to him, during the fast and Expect to receive favor from the Lord.
