Acts 1:8 – But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.
The Holy Spirit is the powerful presence of God who lives in us. The moment we asked Jesus to come into our hearts, the Holy Spirit came to dwell in us. Our heart is the place where the Holy Spirit resides.
The Holy Spirit is the power of God that reigns on earth and helps us navigate through the difficulties of life. He helps us in the midst of life’s trials, and the Bible says that the Holy Spirit is our:
- Comforter
- Helper
- Advocate (Lawyer)
- Friend
- He leads and guides us into all truth
- He convicts when we are wrong
The Holy Spirit brings stability to our lives and sustains us, when we are burdened with the cares of the world. His presence carries us through, when burdens become overwhelming; and we are then able to pursue God’s path for our lives.
In the midst of difficult situations, He comforts us, helps us, fights for us, and supports us. He also guides us with the truth of God’s Word and convicts us, when we sin and miss the mark. He is always working for our good.
Just as Jesus honors the Father and does only what He says, the Holy Spirit honors the Son and does only what Jesus tells Him to do. Therefore, since the Holy Spirit governs our lives, we must also do only what He instructs us to do. This will bring us into a deeper relationship with the Godhead and ensures that we succeed in the assignments for our lives.
Ponder and meditate on this:
How can I honor the Holy Spirit with my life?
