THE NEED TO BE INSPIRED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT

Image source

In life there are times when we need extra support to be able to go higher. I remember the story of a man who is very clear in his mind of his purpose but lacked the backing of his family members. In other instances the problem is of a different sort altogether. There are those who do not know what to do. I have come across several believers who confessed that they do not know what to do next. Whenever people are in this state it is a pointer to one missing thing-inspiration!
No one who is truly inspired ever comes to a situation in which further progress is impossible.
How then can one be inspired?

We can get inspiration by tagging with inspired people. There are certain people that seem to be the life of the party.
They always bubble with enthusiasm.Such people can be quire infectious in a positive way.
Beyond this is the place of the spirit of God. The word inspiration in our text has the same root meaning as wind or spirit. When the spirit of God blows upon a man's spirit, there is bound to be a holy spark! When the wind of God blows upon you understanding is produced. You can understand your present circumstances, where you need to go or be, and how to get there.

Before closing this piece it is important to say that the wind or the spirit of God that produces inspiration and understanding does not work in isolation. It works in concert with the word of God. Actually, the Bible says the word of God itself has been gathered by the breath of God. When next you feel low in inspiration, try to focus a little extra energy on studying and meditating of the word of God. You will spring with fresh ideas.
From our topic today, Getting inspiration from God can also mean God giving us genius ideas to get through any thing life throws at us!.
