Activation: Four Steps to Flow In The Spirit (RAYA)

Turn on some worship music and create space to encounter God. Each person should have something to write with. Allow individual time with the Lord and come back together to share what the Lord is asking you to act on. 

1. Repent.  Ask God, "How have I been wrong or in sin?" 

2. Attune. Ask, "Holy Spirit, what are you saying?" 

3. Yield. I yield my own will, my own person, to be used by God. "I yield to you, Lord. Your will and your way." 

4. Act. You got this! Walk in obedience and step out of comfortability or doubt. This is a safe place to fail. "I trust you, Lord! My faith is in you alone, not my own ability."
