Follow the Spirit Leading

Luke  4:1 And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,

The book of Romans 8:41 states that,.. Those who are led by the spirit of God are sons of God. From Jesus' life, we can understand that through out his ministry, He was led by the spirit of God. If we truly are God's children, His spirit should become our compass through which we navigate our life. 

If Jesus (the God-in-man) was filled with the Holy spirit, we shouldn't underplay the place of God's Spirit in our life journey. Children of God must be filled with and be led by His Spirit. 

Man's blindness can't live meaningfully on his own, hence, the need for God's Spirit's leading. If Jesus allowed the Holy Spirit to lead Him, who are we not to cooperate with Him?

However, His leading night sometimes not go down well with our debased human nature, because  God's thoughts are higher than ours. 

Jesus was led to be tempted, not by his will, but it was necessary for His eventual glorification through the same spirit. 

the leading of the Holy Spirit is not forecasting, it may be against all common sense or natural reasoning.  it is not perfect even when not immediately appealing or understood. 

when we follow the spirit's leading, no matter how seemingly foolish it might be, we end up enjoying the blessings of obedience.  

God bless you.
