There is no phrase of more help, at least I think, than this one, "The Spirit is always leading." Imagine what this really means to a believer who is willing to follow. In fact, isn't it simply true that if He is always leading, then the only issue is whether or not a believer is following?
Resently I spoke on how to have peace in relationships. The simple answer I offered was to "follow the leader." The message is available at www.nebible.net . Imagine what peace there is when you are not the leader, but follow one you can really trust!
I believe the Bible teaches us that He can be trusted...and...He is already leading. What would happen in that one area of struggle if you simply let go of the reigns and simply followed? Of course, to follow...listen first.
Galatians 5:16-18
16 I say then: walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. 17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. NKJV
