Monday Writing...8/6/18..."Freedom in The Spirit"

Good Morning,

The theme for today's writing is the role of the Holy Spirit in our lives. He lives within us and gives us guidance about what we should do and should not do to be in sync with what He thinks is good choices for us. Bre wrote, "This is so beautiful. We have unveiled faces, we are free in His Spirit and we are being transformed by The Holy Spirit. Its not us, but by The Spirit that we are being transformed. Isn’t that exciting? I can’t wait to see how I am used by God by submitting to and obeying The Spirit."  

Looking forward to the surprises the Holy Spirit will give me.

"Freedom in The Spirit"

Written by
 Bre Miller

I am the kind of person who will say whatever pops into her head and there have been times where it was very clear that The Holy Spirit stopped me.

There have also been many times that I have felt led to do something and there is no way I could have done it without him!

“Therefore, 

since we have such a hope, we are very bold.

We are not like Moses, who would put a veil over his face 

to prevent the Israelites from seeing the end 

of what was passing away. “

2 Corinthians 3:12-13

We are very bold! We have freedom to be bold, we have freedom to not be afraid to tell others about Him. We have freedom in Christ to go out into the world and be the light! I think boldness also means standing firm in our faith and not giving into the world we live in.

“But their minds were made dull, for to this day the same veil remains when the old covenant is read. It has not been removed, because only in Christ is it taken away.  Even to this day when Moses is read, a veil covers their hearts.

But whenever anyone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. 

Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. “

The veil is taken away! That sounds like freedom to me. Amen! 

 “And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, 

are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, 

which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.”

This is so beautiful. We have unveiled faces, we are free in His Spirit and we are being transformed by The Holy Spirit. Its not us, but by The Spirit that we are being transformed. Isn’t that exciting? I can’t wait to see how I am used by God by submitting to and obeying The Spirit.                                                                                                            2 Corinthians 3

Amen?                                                                                                                                            Amen!!
