The Church: The Gift Given
Wednesday, December 4, 2024
Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. -- John 16:13
The Holy Spirit has come! Jesus has been raised and seated and has sent the Holy Spirit. Before Jesus left, He spent four whole chapters in the gospel of John telling His disciples to get ready because He was going to send another Comforter! He was going to send the power source of God to be with them and live in them, that it was better if He left; that they could do greater works by the new power in them. They could now go directly to the Father with their petitions; they could ask and receive. Also the Holy Spirit would lead them and guide them out of false believing and wrong doctrine into all truth! The Holy Spirit is called the Spirit of Truth. He is on a mission to lead you into the place of total liberty–-spirit, soul, and body. If He can get you to know the truth, you can live totally free. You must learn to hear His voice and follow His promptings in order to not be led by your head but by the Spirit of God. You must desire and seek His guidance in your daily life. Too many go when they want to go, then end up in a mess and call out to God for help. But you can avoid wrong decisions, wrong turns in life, by learning to follow the Holy Ghost. He is your guide, your teacher, and your friend in this supernatural life. Do not ignore the greatest gift that you will ever receive-–the person of the Holy Ghost!
The Spirit of God: The Enabler
Tuesday, December 3, 2024
Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you,... — Acts 2:22
Jesus, fully God, lived as a man anointed with the Holy Ghost and power. He was approved of God. God showed His approval of Jesus’ life by performing miracles, wonders, and signs through Him. This is God’s method of operation: placing His Holy Ghost, His supernatural power, on a man, to do supernatural works. Jesus did the works, but He did them because of the supernatural equipment on His life-–the anointing. It was God and man working together to get mankind free and to further God’s kingdom of freedom and deliverance. Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty (2 Cor. 3:17)! The Spirit of the Lord is omnipresent–-He is everywhere; yet we do not see liberty everywhere. This is because only where the Spirit is allowed to be Lord, is where there is liberty. Every time the Spirit of God is given access, the anointing of God will remove burdens and destroy yokes. The Holy Spirit must be given the right to have His way in the church, in your ministry, and in your daily life. You, too, are a man or woman who can be approved of God with miracles, signs, and wonders because of the anointing upon you. Become a co-laborer with God and watch His power and Spirit manifest in your life! God will do it by you.
