The Helper (2)

Dearly Beloved. I trust this finds you well and bubbling in the Lord. We thank God for His precious Holy Spirit whom He has given to be with us and in us. The Holy Spirit helps us to know that our relationship with God is real and that God loves us, wants us, and is with us. The Spirit of God marks us as God’s own. Hallelujah.

 

Scriptural References

“But you are not living the life of the flesh, you are living the life of the Spirit, if the [Holy] Spirit of God [really] dwells within you [directs and controls you]. But if anyone does not possess the [Holy] Spirit of Christ, he is none of His [he does not belong to Christ, is not truly a child of God].” (Romans 8v9, AMPC)

 

“For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. And so we should not be like cringing, fearful slaves, but we should behave like God’s very own children, adopted into the bosom of His family, and calling to Him, “Father, Father.” For His Holy Spirit speaks to us deep in our hearts and tells us that we really are God’s children. And since we are His children, we will share His treasures—for all God gives to His Son Jesus is now ours too. But if we are to share his glory, we must also share His suffering. Yet what we suffer now is nothing compared to the glory He will give us later.” Romans 8v14 – 18 (TLB)

 

Prayer

Father, we are so appreciative of Your Spirit in us and with us. We thank You for He witnesses to us that we belong to You. We refuse to live in fear and act as slaves for we belong to You and are assured of it by Your Spirit. May we continue to grow in our fellowship with You precious Holy Spirit, in Jesus name, amen.
