Holy Spirit: God’s Power Within Us?!
07/26/23 • 24 min
The Holy Spirit is the person of the Trinity that is the least talked about (or in some cases over-emphasized)! We can be certain that where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom and love and that the Lord God is glorified!
Will you consider the prayer "Lord God, thank you that through Jesus Christ and his salvation, I have been given the Spirit to guide and teach me. Lors, instruct me by your Spirit as I want to learn more about you."
Revelation, knowledge and power are given through the Spirit! When we know the Word of God, we are able to "test the spirits" as it tells us in 1 John4:1 so that we are not misled but stay true to the gospel of love. Jesus, when he was glorified, SEALED those who believe in him with the Holy Spirit. The deposit of the Spirit is within us! Yes, there is mystery - after all God is God and we are not - and we see through a glass darkly, but the cool part is that we are equipped through his power, not our own! What a relief. We show up to ask and receive. The instruction, conviction, comfort and revelation of knowledge of Christ are through the Spirit Jesus left with us to counsel and guide us into truth. (John 14:16-17, John 16:7, John 7:38-39 and more.)

Better Together? Really? Often Feels More Like Risky and Uncomfortable!
To achieve TRUE satisfaction and intimacy, we need to be TOGETHER - first with God and then with others. From the garden, God modeled togetherness with Jesus and the Spirit and created us to be together with one another. It is not good for us to be alone! How can we press into the more? How can we walk in the agape love that is ours in Christ with one another? It's possible as we walk by the Spirit and receive what Jesus has for us as we abide.
