Let the Holy Spirit... (Phil Chapman)

In this final message of the Extraordinary series in Market Harborough before the summer, Phil Chapman shares from Galatians 5:16–26 about what it means to let the Holy Spirit guide your life. He unpacks the battle between our old sinful nature and the Spirit within us, showing how over-desires (even for good things) can become idols that pull us away from God’s best. Phil contrasts the works of the flesh with the fruit of the Spirit, reminding us that love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control all grow together as the life of Jesus flows through us. With practical encouragement, he calls us to “keep in step with the Spirit,” to nail sinful desires to the cross, and to nurture habits, relationships, and environments that feed the Spirit’s work in our lives, both individually and together as the church.
