In the next few days, we will be taking a series on the fruit of the Spirit. This is very important to us as children that it dictates and gives direction to our lives.

There are nine fruits of the spirit as recorded in the fifth chapter of Paul’s letter to the Galatian church

But when the Holy Spirit controls our lives he will produce this kind of fruit in us: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control; and here there is no conflict with Jewish laws. – Gal 5:22-23 [TLB]

Here, Paul, the Apostle is telling us what will become of our lives when we allow the Holy Spirit control our lives.

My question to you this morning is this;

Is your life controlled by the Holy Spirit? Do you live according to the dictates of the flesh? Are you spirit-led all the time?

Do not think this topic is for adults alone. The earlier you start yielding to and being controlled by the Holy Spirit, even from a tender age, the better.

Gal 5:22-24 [GNT] But the Spirit produces love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 humility, and self-control. There is no law against such things as these.

From tomorrow, we will take these fruits one after the other and see how we can get the best from them.

God bless you as you yield. Amen

Prayer:
Lord, teach me how to be spirit-controlled.

Action point:
Be a person of order

Declaration:
I am a person of order, just like my God
