—Galatians 3:6-14
by: Steve Osborn.
From where does this empowerment to honor and serve God come? From none other than the Holy Spirit living in us. How do we get the Holy Spirit? I hate to sound like a broken record, but Paul tells us here that the answer is, once again, by faith. This can be frustrating for us “do-it-yourselfers.” We want a formula—step by step instructions. But that is where Christianity differs from other religions. No amount of “doing” will get you where you want to be. Everything comes by faith. We trust and God does what only He can do. In this case, He fills us with His own Spirit by which we can live lives that honor Him.
