The fruits of My spirit are gentleness, goodness, meekness, faith, temperance. And if you are full of My Spirit, then no matter how much you are jostled, you will only spill out more of My Spirit.
Right now your spirit is dry, your cupboard is empty, you feel tired and defeated and discouraged and you feel like quitting. This is because you haven’t been coming to the well of My Word. You haven’t been drinking the living water that will cause you to never thirst. You feel tired because you aren’t resting in Me and trusting Me to do the work through you. You are leaning on the arm of your flesh and you aren’t leaning on Me.
But when you come to Me with a broken heart, a repentant heart, a humble heart then My spirit flows into you and brings peace and strength to your soul. You need to abide more in Me, and remember that if you don’t stay connected to Me, if you turn your eyes away from Me and from My Word then you will become prey to the attacks of the devil.
I’ve called you to be a fighter in the spirit, to go on the attack when you get beset by doubts and discouragement. Hold on to your shield of faith – faith in Me, faith in My promises to you, faith in My infinite love for you and faith in the calling that I have called you with. And then you must wield the sword of the spirit – which is My Word – and you will be able to defeat these fiery attacks that come from the Father of lies.
