When you give your life to Jesus and leave your former life behind, you step into a new way of thinking. I battled the last few days and my question to the Holy Spirit was simply where do we go from here.
He pointed me to Galatians 5 where Paul writes about the battle between your carnal self and the new life you accepted. He reminded me that if I continue to fall back on my self reliance system, I will fail.
God allowed sin into this world knowing that in an intimate and trusting relationship with Him we can overcome all things. This means we must stop hindering the Holy Spirit to live freely in us thus guiding us on our way.
It is so important that we let go of the past and who we were. At last we have freedom, for Christ has set us free! We must always cherish this truth and firmly refuse to go back into the bondage of our past.
