The Holy Spirit drives out the sin in us and replaces it with the fruits of the spirit- Galations 5:22-23
"22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law."
The
Holy Spirit is what we need and is like the oil in the story of the
virgins waiting for their bridegroom; some had oil, others did not. The
ones without the Holy Spirit- like the oil I believe- did not make it
in time for the wedding. We are sealed with the Holy Spirit; God does
not want us to grieve the Holy Spirit and is not mocked. As soon as we
say we are sorry for a sin and ask for His help to not do it and
earnestly try, we get peace with Him. The more we obey, the more of the
breastplate of righteousness is on- it covers the heart- the more we
obey the more all the armor stays on securely. Casting down evil
imaginations, voices, is submitting to Him so the enemy runs. James 4:7-
Submit to God, resist the devil and the devil flees.
If you have not asked Jesus to be your Lord, please do asap. To love and obey Him is the Funnest and most adventurous when you have the perfect love casting out fear. Love =)
