Follow the fruits and not signs<\/strong><br \/>Be aware that the devil sometimes appears to be an angel of light (2 Cor. 11:14). That is why Jesus DID NOT say, \u201cBy their SIGNS you will know them\u201d. He said, \u201cBy their FRUITS&#8230;\u201d. \u201cFruits\u201d is more of a leader than signs. The fact that people are rushing to a place where miracles are happening does not mean the truth is there.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Don\u2019t promote signs above the Word; don\u2019t promote miracles above the Word. Don\u2019t even promote the \u201cHoly Ghost\u201d above the Word.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>5. Fruit of the Spirit<\/strong><br \/>If the fruit of a person\u2019s life does not conform to the fruit and character of the Holy Spirit as shown in the scriptures, don\u2019t agree to be led by the spirit of such a person. It is not the spirit of God. The fruit of the spirit of God produces a character of righteousness. Galatians 5:22 lists other pieces of evidence of the spirit of God &#8211; love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, and temperance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6. Know the Holy Spirit<\/strong><br \/>Walk with the Holy Spirit so well that you can sense wrong spirits. By praying, depend on the Holy Spirit to reveal the identity of every other spirit to you.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"quote-simple\">\n<p><strong>PRAYER: I receive the spirit of sensitivity and accuracy to judge and know whether any spirit I come across is from God and to follow the right spirit in Jesus\u2019 name.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\t\t<div class=\"tie-padding  has-padding-left has-padding-right\" style=\"padding-left:5%; padding-right:5%; padding-top:0; padding-bottom:0;\">\n\n\t\t\t<p><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-preformatted\"><strong>LA BIBLE EN UN AN :<\/strong>\nGenesis 28:1-29:35, Matthew 9:18-38, Psalm 11:1-7, Proverbs 3:11-12\n\n(<em>Please note that you can follow this month's devotional on YouVersions's The Bible App using the link: <\/em>http:\/\/bible.us\/r\/B9b)\n\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\n\n\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\nwww.lifeoasisinternationalchurch.org\nwww.soundcloud.com\/reverendareogun\nwww.dciradio.org\nhttps:\/\/bit.ly\/SpiritMeatDailyDevotionalWhatsApp\nYouTube Channel- Sola Areogun Ministries\n+2348037252124\n#SpiritMeat\n#ReverendAreogun\n\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\n\n<em><strong>Droits d&#039;auteur \u00a9\ufe0f 202<\/strong>3 Le grand public est par la pr\u00e9sente inform\u00e9 que le droit d&#039;auteur exclusif<\/em>\n<em>subsiste dans cette \u0153uvre et donc toute tentative de reproduction,<\/em>\n<em>copier, distribuer au public \u00e0 des fins commerciales, publier tout<\/em>\n<em>traduction de l&#039;\u0153uvre, r\u00e9aliser un film relatif \u00e0 l&#039;\u0153uvre,<\/em>\n<em>faire une adaptation de l&#039;\u0153uvre, soit dans son int\u00e9gralit\u00e9, soit en grande partie<\/em>\n<em>une partie de l&#039;\u0153uvre, soit dans sa forme originale, soit sous toute autre forme<\/em>\n<em>d\u00e9riv\u00e9 de mani\u00e8re reconnaissable de l&#039;original constitue une atteinte \u00e0 la<\/em>\n<em>droit de l&#039;auteur et sujet \u00e0 litige sauf et sauf<\/em>\n<em>l&#039;auteur a officiellement et clairement autoris\u00e9 ladite personne<\/em>\n<em>ou les personnes ou l&#039;auteur sont clairement mentionn\u00e9s dans l&#039;\u0153uvre.<\/em><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>oday, we will continue to review how to test spirits to know whether they are from God before you submit to their leading: 3.
