The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: — Romans 8:16

When you got born again, God took the dice out of your hand and put the Holy Ghost in your heart.  He is in there to lead you and guide you in the right choices.  Many people choose to be led by their head and end up in a mess.  The Spirit of God will witness with your spirit on a decision, not with your head.  You will have the peace that passes all understanding in your heart, even though your head may be arguing with your decision.  Trust the inner witness and not the natural evidence, and the Holy Ghost will take you where you need to go.

…And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the spirit is truth.  For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost:  and these three are one. — I John 5:6b, 7

A son of God is not a gambler, but a person who is led by the Spirit of God.  A son is a person who has trained his spirit to hear the voice of the Holy Spirit.  He has become acquainted with the Word of God so that his decisions are always in line with God’s will.  God’s words are God’s thoughts put on paper.  When His thoughts become your thoughts, His ways will become your ways.  The Word will become a lamp unto your feet and a light unto your path--in every decision.

But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost, keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. — Jude 20

It is possible to trust in the natural and not take advantage of the “Decision-Maker” within.  You must keep your spirit in a ready and expecting position to constantly hear from God.  Praying in the Spirit will keep you sensitive to the voice of God.  You can be built up spiritually to make a correct decision every time and live in God’s perfect will.  Don’t guess, don’t gamble, learn to hear the Holy Spirit clearly in every decision in your life.

...for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.  — Genesis 2:17b

God gave a warning to Adam and Eve not to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for they would surely die if they did.  Even though the warning was given, Adam and Eve disobeyed and ate.  Just as God had told them, in that day they died.  We know they did not die physically, because they lived many more years; so we must conclude they died that day spiritually.  Spiritual death, or separation from God, came into their nature, and they were forced to live out of the soul realm.  Spiritual death, which is the seed to sickness, disease, guilt, condemnation, and the curse, had come upon mankind.  God did not get mad at Adam and spiritually kill him.  God did not get mad at Adam and judge him by killing him spiritually.  Adam chose spiritual death, and he received what he chose.  Adam became a new creation, a new spiritual being which never existed before–-instead of faith, he had fear; instead of fellowship with God, he hid from God; instead of blessing, he received the curse.  Everything God had made was good; it was created for man because of God’s love for man.  God never intended man to be guilty, condemned, fearful, sick, and depressed.  Man chose his position in life through disobedience to the warning of God.  God is a good God.
