The Spirit’s Movement

John 3:8 ESV
“The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit.”

We cannot see the wind. We can only see its effect on the material that gets blown about by it. We cannot actually hear wind either unless it is acting on an object in its way such as trees. As with the wind, the normal way to see the movement of the Holy Spirit of God is by His effect on those with whom He comes in contact with.

The Spirit’s movement can cause physical manifestations, healing, deliverance, and life transformation, and sanctification. The Holy Spirit is in charge of where He goes and what he does, but of course that is the Father’s way.

“So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.” We are called to rely on, walk in, and be obedient to the Holy Spirit. Those of us who are “born of the Spirit” find ourselves doing His will and not our own. We walk and do everything with Him in mind, for every decision, every action, every word we speak.

Prayer:
Father, even though I am a free moral agent, and I have my own will, I am not my own, I belong to You, I am Yours. It’s my desire to live for You!
