Rom 8:14,16
Q & A:
- What hinders you from being led by the Holy Spirit? Explain the three-parts being especially in differentiating the spirit and what the soul is consisted of. How can the soul and the spirit be divided apart in order for us to discern what is from the soul and the spirit? (1 Thes 5:23; Heb 4:12; Jam 2:26; 2 Cor 5:1; Rom 12:2)
- How does knowing that the spirit man (inner man, the heart) has the ability to see, hear and feel help you to understand about sensing the Holy Spirit prompting or warning. Explain what the scripture “out of his heart (innermost being or belly) will flow rivers of living water” means to you. (2 Cor 4:16; Gen 2:7; John 7:38-39)
- Discuss what the inward witness of the Holy Spirit is by illustrating your recognition of the inward knowing, inward conviction or inward prompting in your life. Discuss and share from your experience how you would know that you are tuning to God’s voice through the Holy Spirit and not the mind. (Rom 8:14, 16; John 10:27)
