Leader - Have you ever worried about whether or not you really are a Christian? A Christian is anyone who has the Spirit of God living in him or her. If you have sincerely trusted Christ for your salvation and acknowledged him as Lord, then the Holy Spirit has come into your life, and you are a Christian. You won't know that the Holy Spirit has come if you are waiting for a certain feeling;
you will know he has come because Jesus promised he would. When the Holy Spirit is working within you, you will believe that Jesus Christ is God's Son and that eternal life comes through him ; you will begin to act as Christ directs ; you will find help in your daily problems and in your praying ; you will be empowered to serve God and do his will ; and you will become part of God's plan to build up his church .

People - But you are not controlled by your sinful nature. You are controlled by the Spirit if you have the Spirit of God living in you.

Leader - Paul contrasts getting drunk with wine, which produces a temporary "high," to being filled with the Spirit, which produces lasting joy. Getting drunk with wine is associated with the old way of life and its selfish desires. In Christ, we have a better joy, higher and longer lasting, to cure our depression, monotony, or tension. We should not be concerned with how much of the Holy Spirit we have, but how much of us the Holy Spirit has. Submit yourself daily to his leading and draw constantly on his power.

People - Don’t be drunk with wine, because that will ruin your life. Instead, be filled with the Holy Spirit

Leader - If your desire is to have the qualities listed in Gal 5:22,23, then you know that the Holy Spirit is leading you. At the same time, be careful not to confuse your subjective feelings with the Spirit's leading. Being led by the Holy Spirit involves the desire to hear, the readiness to obey God's Word, and the sensitivity to discern between your feelings and his promptings. Live each day controlled and guided by the Holy Spirit. Then the words of Christ will be in your mind, the love of Christ will be behind your actions, and the power of Christ will help you control your selfish desires.

People - So I say, let the Holy Spirit guide your lives. Then you won’t be doing what your sinful nature craves.

ALL - Since we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit’s leading in every part of our lives.

Spirit of the living God,
Fall afresh on me.
Spirit of the living God,
Fall afresh on me.

Fall afresh on me.

Lord, I will lift mine eyes to the hills
Knowing my help is coming from You
Your peace, You give me in time of the storm
You are the source of my strength
You are the strength of my life
I lift my hands in total praise to you
You are the source of my strength
You are the strength of my life
I lift my hands in total praise to you
Amen
