God made us spirit, soul, and body. God is Spirit, and we are spirit beings. However, through the Fall, our spirit was cut off from communion with God. We became like animals, wandering around lost and without a purpose. God ordained for Jesus to come and restore us to a right relationship with Him. This Jesus did through His death and resurrection. Now He has made it possible for all to be in fellowship with the Father through Him. Jesus said He is the way to the Father. Those who choose to follow Him have this promise of eternal life. Eternal death came through the Fall. Eternal life comes through Jesus.

In the spirit, we can now operate by the Holy Spirit who resides in us. He was sent as our Helper, Comforter, and Guide (John 14:26 NKJ, AMPC). He will help us in our walk in the spirit. We need to be filled with the Spirit to walk in Him. In the Spirit we are born again, but we need to be filled with the Spirit to walk in the Spirit. God has made all this possible for us. All we need to do is surrender to Him. He will do what He promised. We have on record testimonies of those who have gone before us, testifying that this is true. They faced a lot of persecution and opposition and even death, yet they triumphed through the Spirit. Some who faced death were transported straight to heaven. Miracles, signs, and wonders followed them, and many were saved through their testimony.

Today, we too can walk in the Spirit. All we need to do is choose to walk in Him. He said He abides in us. He is a resident in us. We can therefore walk as Jesus walked by listening to His voice in us. We don’t have to run here and there because God is in us. We can go directly to Him, and He will make His ways known to us. We can choose to walk according to other voices that we hear or the voice of the Spirit. To listen to the voice of the Spirit gives joy and peace. He will lead us beside still waters and restore our souls. Through Him, we get healed and transformed till we become like Jesus. Choose today to walk in the Spirit and be blessed.
