Auto Pilot
Given July 26, 2006
On this bright summer morning during my prayer time, I asked the Holy Spirit to go on "auto pilot" today and control me. The Holy Spirit is always in me and is a pretty powerful person so I figured it'd be good to have Him in control.
The answer I got was, "No, the Boss won't allow that. He wants you in control." And I knew what He meant. The Holy Spirit was given as a helper not a controller; " But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you. John 14:20". The Holy Spirit is there to help me live a victorious life not live it for me.
That's the thing about God, He will not force Himself on anyone. He wants us to make the decision to follow Him THEN He will do all these wonderful things for us. And He sent the Holy Spirit to help us; to remind us of what God said and to teach us how to live a righteous life.
If we'll just listen!
