Pastor Jeremy shares Wednesday in Glendive.

It is our responsibility as believers to “adjust the dial” or

“put ourselves in a position to be led by the Spirit of

God”

● What we’re made of...we have to set ourselves up

for success in each area.

Spirit

● Gal 6:7 Do not be deceived, God is not mocked;

for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. 8

For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap

corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of

the Spirit reap everlasting life. 9 And let us not

grow weary while doing good, for in due season

we shall reap if we do not lose heart. 10 Therefore,

as we have opportunity, let us do good to all,

especially to those who are of the household of

faith.

○ If we want to be led by our spirit, we are

going to need to sow to the spirit.

○ Even when it gets boring, old, or we don’t see

the results we want to see.

○ We will reap what we sow!

● Several ways to “sow to our spirit”

○ Read the Word of God

○ Pray - Jude 20

○ Develop the fruit - Gal 5:22 But the fruit of

the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering,

kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23

gentleness, self-control.

○ Attend church

○ Listen to the “inward witness”

■ A divine sense...independent of your

soulish realm.

■ “Spiritual radar”

■ Checks, uneasiness, promptings,

excitement from the inside

■ Mark 2:8 But immediately, when Jesus

perceived in His spirit that they

reasoned thus within themselves, He

said to them, “Why do you reason

about these things in your hearts?

Soul

● James 1:22 Therefore lay aside all filthiness and

overflow of wickedness, and receive with

meekness the implanted word, which is able to

save your souls.

● Rom 12:2 And do not be conformed to this world,

but be transformed by the renewing of your mind,

that you may prove what is that good and

acceptable and perfect will of God.

● We must make our mind, will, & emotions line up

with the Word of God.

● What you think about, ponder, meditate on will

affect the degree you are led by the Spirit.

○ Rom 8:5 For those who live according to the

flesh set their minds on the things of the

flesh, but those who live according to the

Spirit, the things of the Spirit. 6 For to be

carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually

minded is life and peace.

○ You can’t control the thoughts that come, but

you can control what you think about.

Flesh

● Rom 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by

the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a

living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is

your reasonable service.

● Gal 5:16 I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you

shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. 17 For the flesh

lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the

flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so

that you do not do the things that you wish.

● 1 Cor 9:24 Do you not know that those who run in

a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run in

such a way that you may obtain it. 25 And

everyone who competes for the prize is temperate

in all things. Now they do it to obtain a perishable

crown, but we for an imperishable crown. 26

Therefore I run thus: not with uncertainty. Thus I

fight: not as one who beats the air. 27 But I

discipline my body and bring it into subjection,

lest, when I have preached to others, I myself

should become disqualified.

○ Your body needs rest, nutrition, & exercise
