solite3:
It is impossible to live the Christian life without the Holy Spirit.
Hence Jesus promised his disciples the Holy Spirit.




Galatians 5:16
This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.

Galatians 5:18
But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.

Galatians 5:25
If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.


when you are bornagain, you have a new life, a new nature Christ is born in you, you literally have eternal life ( God's type of life) but you have enemies who challenge your position which are,
1. Mr flesh

2. the devil.

as long as we are in this world we are in battle with those two foes, therefore if you are to overcome these enemies you need to walk in the Spirit. in other to walk in the Spirit, you have to be Spiritually minded.

you have to walk in the reality of what Christ has done on the cross not a defeated life.
walking in the Spirit is all about knowing your position in Christ and acting in line with that position.

for example as a bornagain, the Bible says you cannot sin what does this mean? it mean as a bornagain you are not a sinner( fornicator, liar, dishonest man etc), when you begin to live in this reality then you are walking in the Spirit.

stop living under condemnation! that is what the devil wants!
I remember when I first learnt how to ride bicycle, I was so afraid of falling that I tried to balance myself but I realized the secret of riding a bicycle is to keep riding and the law of dynamics will balance things out.

OK Let's consider another example, when Jesus walked on water. Peter saw him and ask Jesus to command him to come Jesus told him come, he began to walk on water, his attention was on Jesus, guess what happened, a wind came.
who sent the wind? ans: satan
what happened?ans: he lost focus on Jesus and fear came (Mr flesh)
the result ? he began to sink (condemnation)

Jesus immediately stretched forth his hands and caught peter. This is a great encouragement knowing that nothing can take us from his hands.

the Christian life is like riding a bicycle, when you stop walking in the spirit then you start falling!
how do one stop walking in the Spirit? answer
1.when you stop focusing on Jesus and instead focus on correcting your imperfections by yourself instead of God doing it for you, you are gone.

John 15:5
I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.




2. when you start believing the lie that without correcting your past action or yourself God cannot forgive you. pure lie
God forgive you freely in Christ.

Ephesians 4:32
And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

1 John 2:12
I write unto you, little children, because your sins are forgiven you for his name's sake.

some people do preach that without doing restitution God cannot forgive sins, that is not correct.
if one confesses his/her sins he will forgive him without ever remembering it.

3. when you are unaware of your spiritual position in Christ you will live like a sinner. Remember the prodigal Son, he lived like a slaved not that he stopped being a Son of his father but he forgot whom he was because of his rebellion ( he thought he could be independent from his father) and but when he remembered who he was he then knew his foolishness and decided to go back home ( true repentance).

when you are unaware of your spiritual nature, the enemy will deal with you.

as you grow in grace, the nature of Christ in you will be stronger and the knowledge of your spiritual position also increase.


Ephesians 2:21
In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:

Ephesians 4:15
But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:

1 Peter 2:2
As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:

2 Peter 3:18
But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen.


1 John 2:13
I write unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I write unto you, young men, because ye have overcome the wicked one. I write unto you, little children, because ye have known the Father.


finally, to walk in the Spirit means to walk in the reality of the new life you have in christ, you also grow in this knowledge by knowing more about God and his plan for you.

1 John 2:14
I have written unto you, fathers, because ye have known him that is from the beginning. I have written unto you, young men, because ye are strong, and the word of God abideth in you, and ye have overcome the wicked one.

I pray for any believer who is facing challenges in his life that he receive freedom and begin to enjoy his Christian walk in Jesus name.

Beautiful message...

ha ha jig, you certinally are way out of my league on bad language
the truth of being a people pleaser etc. hurts you jig, the truth does that

look at your words, do you see the spirit of satan in you yet jig
it's not the Holy Spirit in you, that's for sure

is that what you mean by putting me in my place big time
by using bad language, you must be deluded

Mat 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Mat 7:16 Ye shall know them by their fruits.

jig you are known by your fruits(bad language in this case) to be of your father god satan

Whatever.... You are irrelevant to me just like your opinion... I don't care... Since the Lord Jesus have declared me righteous, who are you to say otherwise?
Manner.less religious wac.ko....Go find your mates son. This is just a warning to you to stay clear of me in this forum... I don't care for you and i don't care for your types ( religious hypocrites)... White psy.cho.... I am through with you... You are now dismissed...

people pleasers, back slappers,
not pleasing God but pleasing people, and even accepting lies

Col 3:23 And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men;









^^^ brothers in lies, brothers in satan

OneJ:
jiggazz was "very rude to them".Tit for tat.
Yet, jiggazz does not sin. What a saint ! Oh blood of Zacharia !!!!!!!
Who is fooling who ?

plz read my post again... Did i say i do not sin? No.... What i said is though there is sin in me ( the flesh) but there is no sin on me in God's eyes.... This is because of the once and for all finished work of Christ on the Cross and never to be repeated again.

So please read very well before writing baseless comments.. I am not a hypocrite cos i don't pretend, check my signature. I don't condemn people cos i am not better, what made the difference is that God drew me to Christ and i became His...

And yes i can be very rude... I put people in their place. If you are abusive or rude to me, i give it back to you 1000 times.... I don't do religion cos that's not my thing. My relationship with Christ is personal to me alone and no one can tell me how to relate with God. Peace.

baby8ace:

9jabo1:

MsGood:
I discovered Joseph Prince in 2015 and listening to has really changed my perspective of Christianity. I wish our Preachers teach more like him, we'd have more independent, loving and peaceful Christians.
P.S: You can get his messages on YouTube or visit his website www.josephprince.com

Yes oo... You are blessed sis...

xseed:
I LOVE THIS

You are blessed

EzeIgboNwaChukwu:
you're a heretic twisting the scriptures to satisfy your lustful desires.
REPENT!

Wow!! They have come again... Who be dis one?

bloodofthelamb:
Thanks bro jiggaz and solite. I put it all to rest.

As for being conscious of sin, by his grace I can't. Those who are concious of sin forsake God's gift of righteousness. Thanks again bro jiggaz for your defence.

Alright my bro... You are always welcome...

solite3:
false righteousness has blinded many eyes today, it is a shame that supposed Christians has taken to the view of the world concerning righteousness.

Am telling you my bro... It's really a shame.
