In an open system, energy can be added to a system to cause a decrease in entropy, but this is not necessarily a spontaneous reaction. If entropy (disorder) increases, and the reaction enthalpy is exothermic ( ΔH<0 ) or weakly endothermic ( ΔH>0 & small), the reaction is generally spontaneous.

By definition, a spontaneous change is always accompanied by lowering of free energy.
