One thing I’ve noticed about human nature is that we get committed to something when it directly affects us. For example, when sickness attacks our body, we begin reading healing scriptures. When we have a financial shortage, we read get serious about tithing and reading the Word about finances. If we really want to be Spirit led believers, we should spend time, attention and energy on the importance of understanding the operation of the Spirit of God. We want to be attentive listeners. God wants us to check our heart, and then let Him flow through us. If we seriously want to live the abundant life, it takes discipline and diligence. It takes reprioritizing our life. It takes simplifying our life. It takes saying no to the good, so you can say yes to the best. God’s best is limitless living, beyond all of our natural fears. We could live filled with fear and never accomplish what God has for us, or we could live full of faith and courage. Then we could say yes when God asks us to do what seems hard or maybe even impossible. Why is that so important? If we want to be Mary’s who choose what is right and most important, we have to say no to some things that really don’t matter. To be able to say be it unto me according to your Word takes courage! Living above natural human existence, living in the presence of God, living a life that is led by the spirit of God, takes courage! Let’s live above fear! That is living your best life.
