Spirit of.....

What do you have a sprit of....? You could have a spirit of jealousey, bitterness, and unforgiveness. These are the common ones these are the easy ones to point out .... Everyone at some point struggles with these spirits...

But how about the things that you dont think are bad? Like the spirit of guilt... How can guilt be a bad thing, isn't guilt when you feel bad for someone because you care for them? Not exactly, guilt is tricky, the devil is tricky... He can he make you feel bad for something that isn't your fault, he can keep you trapped in something that you dont want stay in becasue of guilt... Guilt can bring depression which leads to an unhealthy mind which leads to an unhealthy body which leads to other things...

Dont get it twisted though, guilt is correct when you do something you werent suppose to do and the outcome makes you feel guilty or if you could of done something but was too selfish to do... these are the right reasons of guilt BUT if you truly did do what you could of done and in good faith then you have nothing to feel guilty about...

This all comes down to guarding your heart and having the wisdom to distinguish between what is real and the fake... If someones kows they can pull the guilt trip on you to get what they want then they are taking advantage of you... Guard your heart...

The devil will use whatever you are most strong at and twist it around, for this case it would be... A caring spirit into a guilty spirit....
