John 14:21 "Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love them and show myself to them.”
How does He show himself to us? Through the Holy Spirit.
So if you’re a follower of Jesus, you are always in the presence of the Holy Spirit. And the more you surrender your life to His control, the more you will sense His love and power.

Think of this as a voluntary choice to surrender your life to the Holy Spirit's control—in other words, to be sensitive to His leadership and guidance, obedient to His promptings, and dependent upon His strength.
The evidence of the Spirit's control is revealed in a person's character. Those who have yielded their lives to Christ's leadership are continually being transformed into His likeness.
The degree of surrender determines the level of transformation.
The degree of surrender opens the door to the level of what type of experience you will have.

Most of the time the power of the Holy Spirit is released in your life in quiet, unassuming ways, nudges and gentle whispers. Christlikeness is not produced by imitation, but by inhabitation!

I hope you will join us at Encounter for Anchor 11 tomorrow night, "Trust in the power of the Holy Spirit to lead and guide me."

Be Blessed and Encouraged
