A couple of weeks ago my Pastor and his wife, and my wife and I attended the Marriage Retreat that was held by the Church of God of Prophecy, Tennessee District, in Pigeon Forge. We were blessed to be able to attend this meeting, and God touched us mightily. To me it had a Revival meeting atmosphere (Bro. Mike Willingham was truly anointed by God), hearts were changed, lives were touched, and visions were made known. God led us to the scripture of Romans 8:14 "because those who are Led by the Spirit of God are Sons of God." And we took this to heart, and began teaching about being Led by the Spirit, to Lead by example in the Youth group. You know Leading by Example is very hard in our day of age, but remember we can't do it on our own, but we must have his Spirit to lead us, and direct our lives daily. We must strive daily with the following:
(a) To have the Fruits of the Spirit (which is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control…” Galatians 5:22
(b) Being Led by the Spirit we will find help in our daily problems and in our praying. Philippians 4:13
(c) You will be empowered by God and do his will. Acts 1:8. Not our will but his will.
(d) Will become part of God’s plan to build up his Church. Eph. 4:12
And in last few weeks we have been really experiencing a move of God in our church, lives are being changed to Christ. And to GOD BE THE GLORY.
