The Spirit Confirms Your Salvation - Part 3
Romans 8:13 - "For if you live by its (your sinful nature's) dictates, you will die. But if through the power of the Spirit you put to death the deeds of your sinful nature, you will live." The Spirit gives you freedom. Now you're free -- to follow God's way, to follow the Spirit, to obey, to experience new desires and the power to follow them. I've often told people, "I run around with all the women I want to run around with. I get drunk all I want to get drunk." Jesus has changed my want-to! The Spirit changes our desires. My desires are becoming -- more and more each day -- the desires God has for me. His desires are becoming my desires. It's one of the characteristics of your life that will let you know you're a Christian -- your desires begin to change.
