LOVE WORTH FINDING 31st MARCH 2025 MONDAY DEVOTIONAL MESSAGE BY ADRIAN ROGERS
TOPIC: Living in Victory
“But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law.” – Galatians 5:18-23
Ponder This
When I was a younger preacher, I thought if I could be pure enough, holy enough, and clean enough, then the Holy Spirit would fill me. But I had it 180 degrees backward. I could never be clean and pure until I was filled with the Holy Spirit. Sometimes we have the idea that being filled with the Holy Spirit is an attainment—it isn’t. It is receiving a gift from God, just like when you were saved.
You need to be filled with the Holy Spirit of God because you don’t have what it takes. That doesn’t mean you can cling to your sin and expect God to fill you, but it does mean the only way you will ever be victorious over sin is to be filled with the Holy Spirit of God.
The Holy Spirit of God is the transforming fire of God. Fire transforms whatever it is burning into its own likeness. It turns whatever it’s burning into fire itself. When you are with the Lord Jesus, filled with the Holy Spirit, you are being transformed from glory into glory. And because the Holy Spirit of God is the transforming power of God, He not only consumes, but He also transforms.
- What are some things the Holy Spirit has changed in your heart?
- What is an area of your life in which you do not reflect Christ? How are you seeking to surrender that area to the Holy Spirit’s transformation?
Practice This
Ask friends in the faith for testimonies of how they have been transformed by the Spirit.
