Turn your attention to the letters to the churches from Jesus in the Book of Revelation. Jesus prophetically spoke through John of the conditions that could cripple the church.

In the *7 messages to the churches* , Jesus gave correction and commendation.

1. The Church of Epehsus: You’re Loyal but Loveless.

2. The Church of Smyrna: You’re Afflicted but Affluent.

3. The Church of Pergamos: You’re Faithful but Terribly Flawed Two Doctrines

4. The Church of Thyatira: You’re Committed but Utterly Compromised Jezebellic Spirit

5. The Church of Sardis: You’re Dynamic but Dying. No More Life in God

6. The Church of Philadelphia: You’re Small but Significant. A Faithful Church.

7. The Church of Laodiceans: You are Crowded but Christ-less. Lukewarm

For all these situations of correction, Jesus gives a solution. There is a way out of these spiritual predicaments.

When we have a ear for what the Spirit wants to say, then we will become an overcomer.

The Holy Spirit is a very heart felt expression and experience of God the Father and Son.

When the fullness of the Holy Spirit comes, our lives becomes full. It is within our reach to be led by the Spirit of God.

“For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.””
‭‭Romans‬ ‭8:14-15‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Purpose of Message:
That we can continue to live the life of an overcomer when we are in the fullness of the Holy Spirit.

“Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me. To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne. “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” ’ ””
‭‭Revelation‬ ‭3:20-22‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

We are the last day Church. The 7 messages apply to us hearing them. The last day church needs to be filled with the Holy Spirit. We then need to move to the next level and be led by the Holy Spirit. This eventually leads to being empowered by the Holy Spirit. We then go further by being able to hear the voice of the Holy Spirit.

How can we be led by the Spirit of God?

3 Baby Steps in being led by the Spirit of God:

1. Invite the Holy Spirit into all your decisions and doings. He is more than willing to participate in our lives (Proverbs 3: 5-6) Read the Word of God and praying as well as praying in the Spirit (Psalms 119: 18, Jeremiah 33:3, Romans 8: 26-28)

2. Put on a mode of expectation. Be sensitive to His Spirit. We were made to see and hear Him and be led by the Spirit) (Proverbs 20:12)

3. Do not quench the Spirit ( 1 Thessalonians 5:19)

When we are led by the Spirit of God, we will live the life of an overcomer.

Being led by the Spirit of God is a gateway to your spiritual maturity (Romans 8:14), prophetic destiny (1 Corinthians 2:9) and Godly character (Galatian 5:22-23).
