Led by the Spirit

Romans 8:14 “For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.”

According to this verse, to walk in sonship is to be one who is led of the Spirit of God. In the Greek the word led (Strongs 71: agó) refers to one who is guided by another. Notice the emphasis in this verse is not to be led by a doctrine, another man or woman, a church structure, rules, but to be led by the Spirit of God. Galatians 5:18 “But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.” For those in Christ Jesus the emphasis has always been and will always be to be led directly by Christ Himself through His Spirit. The Spirit is what leads us into all truth.

The devil will always try to deter God’s people from the simplicity that is in Christ. Being led of the Spirit is the only answer to all the issues we may face. God desires to give us fresh bread for every meal. The manna was new and fresh every day. Certainly our monument moments with the Lord should remain erected, but if God Himself has left the altar of that monument, may we not be found among those sacrificing in disobedience without the ark of His presence in our midst.

To walk in Sonship is to simply be led of the Spirit. God has fresh bread for His people, but in order to receive it we must throw away the old stale bread.
