Rom 8:14
14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. [KJV]
Question: is it possible to know when one is doing wonders under the influence of a Spirit that is not the Holy Spirit?
ANSWER: When anyone operates a spiritual gift outside the administration of the Holy Spirit, he is bound to operate it under the influence of unclean spirits. if you are operating a spiritual gift, but have never been baptized with the Holy Spirit, you do this in fellowship with a spirit that is not the Holy Spirit but an unclean Spirit if you have never received Christ Jesus as Lord over your life. Christians naturally have fellowship with the Holy spirit in operating His gifts.
The gifts and the callings of God are without repentance(Rom 11:29). Many have received spiritual gifts but have walked outside of Christ’s government. That is why on that day of Judgment, many will come saying "Lord, I healed the sick in your name..." and the Lord will say "I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity" (see Matt 7:23).
One way to know if you are still working for God with your spiritual gifts (and every other physical and spiritual endowment) is to examine your propelling motive. If your motive is true Love for God and for people, you are still on the right track. It is only they that know God that can manifest true love (see 1 Joh 4:7). True love does not expect anything in return (see 1 Cor 13).
Go into today determined to be a person of Love. Always Focus on God's love for you and let this love propel his love that He has shed abroad in your heart.
Prayer:
· Thank the Lord for bringing you to this moment
· Ask Him to empower you to live a life controlled by Love. Amen.
