"Do not quench the Spirit; do not despise prophetic utterances. But examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good; abstain from every form of evil." -I Thessalonians 5:19-22 (NASB)
You may have heard the expression, "Don't rain on their parade!" Sometimes we find it easy to dismiss ideas that we don't agree with or understand. We may not believe things can happen, so we ignore or belittle the ideas. While we cannot believe everything we see or hear, we should be ready to put it to God's test!
I Thessalonians 5:19-22 reminds us that we should not rain on the Spirit's parade. When the Spirit guides us, we should listen to the will of God delivered to us through the Spirit. We should look to see what is good and then hold onto the good and let go of the evil. God has sent the Holy Spirit to guide us, but it is up to us to listen to His wisdom and guidance!
Don't rain on the parade, listen to the Holy Spirit and let the Spirit be your guide in God's plan!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for sending the Holy Spirit to guide me. Help me to know when the Spirit is guiding me and help me to listen to its guidance so I can follow Your will. Through Jesus I pray, amen.
