Follow The HOLY SPIRIT

Most times in the bible we notice that JESUS healed on the Sabbath against the laws of Moses or rather against religion of the day. On the surface you would think that Jesus was wrong, but JESUS is GOD what better way to follow GOD law than through the master himself. I like on one occasion where JESUS told his critics that Go read again what in means “I desire mercy not sacrifice.” Also in Hebrews 10:8 It says “Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not desire nor were you pleased with them” Although the law required them to be made. The spirit through which the laws were given was no longer in play in other words the Pharisees added on a lot of burdens that they themselves could not bear. JESUS was practically saying to them one better than the written laws is here. The great I am, the true image of the father right in your face and you are missing the days of your visitation. Rather than allow GOD himself to reveal to them how to apply the laws. JESUS was trying to say you are missing a key ingredient here LOVE. Where is the love? Those you love, you show mercy. Through out life man has somehow conceived this notion that to get to GOD one has to treat the body harshly or very strict with the laws more into external rules. Yet GOD is clear with what he wants Mic 6:8: He hath showed you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you, to act justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your GOD? Yet I have noticed even in my own church leadership telling people to fast almost half the year not knowing why we are fasting. Those that just follow fasted till they were tired and it just fizzled away. Me on the other hand I do not fast unless the HOLY SPIRIT leads me to. It is not what the rules say but what the spirit of the LORD is saying at that particular time in line with the word of course. This year they announced 21 days fast at my church but me and my wife agreed unless GOD tells us to fast, we are not going to fast. Then half way in the month we went to visit a pastor friend. While discussing some issues he tells us the SPIRIT of the LORD says we should take an Esta fast. There and then we both felt in our spirits that we should do that. As we always do we went home and prayed over it the HOLY SPIRIT confirmed that was what He wanted us to do. You see if I had gone with the multitudes I would have missed GOD. I see a lot of churches say Tithes are for your local church and all that and some say not just the local church but tithes are for where ever you are fed the word of GOD. The latter being televangelist of course chipping in on the tithes to boost income. But tell you what eeh! If you are lead by the spirit shouldn’t you listen to what the SPIRIT of the LORD says. Personally I pray over what ever GOD gives me after all it belongs to GOD. Who in the world knows best how his money should be spent than the LORD himself. Go on try it, don’t be wearied down with religion let the HOLY SPIRIT lead, you will be amazed. One Sunday in church as we were worshiping I had tithe money with me. The HOLY SPIRIT told me go give that guy a certain amount and that one and that one. After all that I had no more money then I remembered a friend whom I had in mind to give something. I new the HOLY SPIRIT wanted me to give him something but I said in my heart LORD if only I had such amount. Immediately a guy came from nowhere and gave me exactly what I had in mind of giving that other guy right there and then in church. Mind you I am not saying; do not give to your church, no not at all. All I am saying is seek GOD first.
