James 4:5 - "Surely, you don't think scripture is wrong when it says: the Spirit which He sent to live in us wants us for Himself alone?"

Observation:

The Holy Spirit within me conflicts with fleshly desire, urging me into service for Him. It still requires my submission and my action.

Being led the the Holy Spirit is an ongoing God encounter. A religious spirit is a demonic presence that works to get us to substitute being led by our intellect instead of the Spirit of God.

Ephesians 2:10 - "For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God has before ordained that we should walk in them."

Genesis 1:2 - "And the Spirit of God was moving over the surface of the waters."

THE HOLY SPIRIT IS EVER MOVING, WORKING, AND BRINGING FORTH THE PURPOSES OF GOD. THE NATURE OF THE CHRISTIAN LIFE IS TO BE MOVING AND GOING SOMEWHERE.

1 Corinthians 1:5 - "That in every thing you are enriched by Him, in all utterance, and in all knowledge."

Every time we confess God's word Jesus' enrichment ministry adds another grain of faith, another bit of anointing, to our faith and to our words.
