Day 9
Is Jesus a guest of our lives or Is He a host?
Many people live a life of defeat. They tried hard but failed. They realize that something is missing in their lives but do not recognize what it is. But I want to let them know what they are missing that is the presence of the Holy Spirit the most important thing that people have lost. And there are some people who believe that God is with them but they still experience failure. The Bible tells us to be filled with the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 5:18). And be controlled by him (Romans 8:9). When we invite Jesus into our lives. His Spirit will surely come into our lives and dwell in us, He wants to be our host. But we invite him in and make him our only guest.
Is Jesus a guest of our lives or is He a host? It is not enough for us to have only God's presence in our lives. He may be inside us, but he may be living inside us just as a guest. Let Him be the host of your life. When we allow God to take full control of our lives and submit ourselves completely to His will, sin and temptation will not be a huge problem for us. God will help us to manage this and drive Satan out of our lives. We must realize that we cannot face sin and temptation on our own. The Bible tells us to flee from sin and temptation (1 Corinthians: 6:18). (1 Thessalonians: 5:22). And when we have the Spirit of God to guide us, He will surely help us to make the right decisions in life. He will fill us with His Holy Spirit and He will be the Head of our lives.
