IN STEP WITH THE SPIRIT

Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit.

Jesus said He would not leave us alone but would give us a Helper to be with
us forever (

would be our Counselor (

Two sisters in southern China came to Christ in a house church meeting.
Twenty months later a friend from Hong Kong visited them and asked what they
had been doing since their conversion. "Starting home meetings," was their
timid response.

"How many home meetings?" "Only thirty," was their halting reply.

"How many attend your meetings?" was the next nonchalant question. "Well, at
the smallest one about two hundred and eighty!"

Now the questioner was totally involved and quickly continued, "How many
attend your largest meeting?" "Not even 5000, only about four thousand nine
hundred!"

The Hong Kong Christian was flabbergasted. And in his excitement quickly
asked, "How do you ladies-both new Christians-know what to do?"

They simply replied, "We pray. And after we pray, the Holy Spirit tells us
what to do!"

It is also obvious that these two ladies were then obedient to the Holy
Spirit's direction. The goal of all Christians should be to live so
completely under the control of the Holy Spirit that it can be said we are
walking in the Spirit (

d497> Galatians 5:25). As Paul reminded the Galatian Christians, they began
their Christian lives by a miracle work of God, new birth in Jesus, and they
could only expect to continue it by God's power. This fact is even more
evident in a hostile environment.

RESPONSE: The Holy Spirit wants to be my guide and counselor today. I will
be obedient to His leading.

PRAYER: Lord, help me to walk this day in the power of Your Holy Spirit. May
I also keep in step!
