To Explore, Or Receive

...That is the question, when it comes to the correct “response” to the “wind” of the Spirit.

[Jn 3:8]

We are re-learning that: “as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons (daughters) of God”

[Rom 8:14]

Being “led by the Spirit” is to “yield your members” to, or receive, the Spirit's leading versus usurping the Spirit's authority, and trying to second guess His guidance.

[Rom 6:19]

When Jesus (“the word”) became a man (“was made flesh”), it is written of Him that He laid His “reputation,” of being “equal with God,” aside, “and became obedient unto ...the death of the cross.” That is, Jesus chose to receive (or submit to) being “led by the Spirit;” rather than explore His options to have things His way. Thus, obedient submission (to the Spirit) was Jesus' response to  the call to do the Father's will; saying: “a body hast Thou prepared me ...to do Thy will.”

[Jn 1:14; Phil 2:5-8; Heb 10:5,7]

THE (SPIRIT) IS WAITING TO ENTER YOUR HEART

WHY DON'T YOU LET HIM COME IN?

THERE'S NOTHING IN THIS WORLD TO KEEP YOU APART

WHAT IS YOUR ANSWER TO HIM?

TIME AFTER TIME HE HAS WAITED BEFORE

AND NOW HE IS WAITING AGAIN

TO SEE IF YOU'RE WILLING TO OPEN THE DOOR

OH, HOW HE WANTS TO COME IN.
