John 10:27 (NKJV) 27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me<\/span>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

As a believer, our decisions should be based on what we have learned through His word. In doing so, we learn to follow, obey and apply His truth to our everyday living, instead of doing something simply because we want to. His words will echo in our hearts.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

This is all part of following Him and it takes a lifetime to learn. It doesn’t happen over night, so we shouldn’t give up if we are not getting it just right. We don’t just reach a point in our life and say, “there, I know how to handle it all!”. It is an ongoing process.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Most times we are\u00a0fighting our own flesh. We are\u00a0trying\u00a0to\u00a0stop it from doing the wrong things. That’s right, our own flesh.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

We might say, “so and so is doing this\u00a0and getting away with it. Why can’t we just do half of what they are doing?”.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

We cannot look at\u00a0what others are doing and try to “get away with it”. We need to stay focused\u00a0on what we know is right and follow through with that each day.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Keeping this old flesh in line with God’s word is a job in and of itself. But we do have a Helper, the Holy Spirit. And we need His\u00a0strength, wisdom and\u00a0discipline\u00a0to keep us following the right path.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

John 14:26 (NKJV) 26 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<\/span>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

We love that\u00a0He thought of us and\u00a0sent us a Helper. We need\u00a0Him\u00a0more\u00a0than\u00a0we know. Ask the Holy Spirit for help today, that we may be reminded of the words of our Lord.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
