How do you recognize if something is from God? Lucky for us, the scriptures make it very clear.
If something contains the fruit of the Holy Spirit—love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control—it is from God.
Just like you would look to see if there was good healthy fruit growing from the seeds you planted in a garden, we are to check for spiritual fruit growing in our lives. Next time you wonder if something is ordained by God, look for the fruit of the Spirit.
