How To be Led By The Spirit of God

"The real you is your spirit." - Seun Osigbesan Sermon Summary3 ways God doesn't want us to be led:1/ By putting out a fleece (Genesis 24:14,17,18). There are coincidences in life today that nullify this. (Judges 6:36-40).2/ Prophets…In the new testament, God doesn't want you to be dependent on prophets to be led. (Ephesians 2:14-18)The way God designed the NT is that everyone has access to God. The role of a prophet in the NT is confirmatory and not directional.  Christians today want to outsource to prophets.  Mountains don't get you closer to God. It helps you to avoid distractions. (John 4:23) 3/ Through dreams…anything God reveals is because you can do something about it. You should not idolize your dreams. The word of God supersedes the dreams we have. (Deuteronomy 29:29). If you can't find it in the word of God, discard it. How does God lead us?1/ Through simple wisdom. Trust God, 'use' your understanding but don't lean on it. The pain of regret is deeper.2/ Through the inward witness. It's a primary way God leads us in the new testament. A witness in the Spirit that produces peace in the heart, is evidence of God's word to one. (1 Corinthians 14:3). God is not an author of confusion. If you don't feel peaceful about it, don't do it.
