As you mature as a follower of Christ you will
learn how to trust your gut instinct – your intuition. Some in the Church resist this kind of
thinking because it lacks an outward image of spirituality.
There are two kinds of intuition. There is a
natural intuition that can only draw on human logic and common sense. This intuition cannot accomplish the work of
God’s Kingdom because if it could we would not need the Spirit. The other kind of intuition is the intuition
of God’s Spirit. This intuition is hard to explain. It is simply something your new Spirit-inspired
nature knows to be right.
When the Spirit of God entered your life the
old nature took a back seat to the greater nature of your new identity in
Christ. Because your spiritual default
has been reset as a new creation the desires of the old nature and its
accompanying sin is not your first response. Your default has been reset to
live righteously.
Today, trust those small inner impressions of
the Spirit that some will dismiss because that lack religious drama. Some of the greatest miracles will take place
because you followed the lead of something in your gut that sounded like God.
