Galatians 5:16-23 teaches that at any moment we are either walking by the Holy Spirit or according to the sin nature. Walking by the Spirit, enjoying fellowship with God, walking in the light are virtually synonymous. During these times, the Holy Spirit is working in us to illuminate our minds to the truth of Scripture and to challenge us to apply what we learn. But when we sin, we begin to live based on the sin nature. Our works do not count for eternity. The only way to recover is to confess (admit, acknowledge) our sin to God the Father and we are instantly forgiven, cleansed, and recover our spiritual walk (1 John 1:9). Please make sure you are walking by the Spirit before you begin your Bible study, so it will be spiritually profitable.

Do you ever use the Bible as a how-to book by trying to find quick solutions to your problems in it? Listen to this lesson to learn that what you need to do is study the Bible and learn everything you can about God. Learn what the phrase “the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ” means and about the Granville Sharp Rule that explains it. See how praise refers to naming actual events and things that God has accomplished rather than merely saying the words. Decide to study God’s Word on a regular basis so you are prepared for all the difficult circumstances that may come your way.
