When we follow God, HE makes us above only and not beneath. It is by the Holy Spirit leading us in the decisions of this life that we know what to do. The Holy Spirit guides us into all truth and teaches us all things concerning the issues that are blocking our path as we set out to accomplish goals. The Holy Spirit even shows us things to come, as needed. (John 14:26 & John 16:13)
Deuteronomy 28 ... 13 And the Lord shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be above only, and thou shalt not be beneath; if that thou hearken unto the commandments of the Lord thy God, which I command thee this day, to observe and to do them:
14 And thou shalt not go aside from any of the words which I command thee this day, to the right hand, or to the left, to go after other gods to serve them.
God began teaching me these things about being led by the Spirit of God as soon as I was born again in 1975.
I know nothing more important than these godly concepts.

John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

John 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

Being led by the Holy Spirit of God is the most important thing I know about living the Christian life on this present earth.
Being led by the Holy Spirit of God is the most important thing I know about living the Christian life on this present earth.
When we are being led by the Spirit of God in those things we do on this earth, we are following God and not other human or ourselves.
This is critical for us.

Deuteronomy 28:9 The Lord shall establish thee an holy people unto Himself, as HE hath sworn unto thee, if thou shalt keep the commandments of the Lord thy God, and walk in His ways.
The Holy Spirit in us reminds us of words of God to show us what we are to do as we live on this earth.

I Corinthians 2
11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.
12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
