       He have to allow him to work in us. Turn quickly over to Acts chapter 8: “Now an angel of the Lord said to Philip, “Rise and go toward the south to the road that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza.” This is a desert place. And he rose and went. And there was an Ethiopian, a eunuch, a court official of Candace, queen of the Ethiopians, who was in charge of all her treasure. He had come to Jerusalem to worship and was returning, seated in his chariot, and he was reading the prophet Isaiah. And the Spirit said to Philip, “Go over and join this chariot.” So Philip ran to him” (Acts 8:26-30, ESV). Now, this is definitely an interesting passage. An angel of the Lord directed Philip to go in a certain direction (which of course, angels do direct us, but this is a whole ‘nother discussion for another time), but what I want us to see here, even though it may seem basic, is the fact that the Holy Spirit ‘led’ Philip by speaking a word from God to him. I believe God can, and still does, do this with us as believers. He will often speak things to us in our minds.
