Recently, during a meeting, Dad made a striking statment. He said, “Many times we, as believers, are not taking full advantage of the Holy Spirit and why He came.” It is so true! The Bible says that the Holy Ghost is our comforter, helper, teacher, promise, and . It tells us He will speak to us, flow out of us, and minister to us. Have you ever heard (or said), “I wish the Holy Spirit did those things for me,” or “That never happens for me. I never hear the Holy Spirit. I WISH He would help me”? Well, that is exactly why we aren’t taking full advantage. We judge His ministry by our experiences instead of believing on the Word. You see, the ministry of the Holy Spirit must be received (like EVERYTHING in the Kingdom of God) by faith!
I encourage you to begin to declare God’s Word concerning the ministry of the Holy Spirit to you.
Declare:
The Holy Ghost is my helper and comforter- John 16:7
He’s the Spirit of Truth and guides me into all truth- John 16:13
He is my teacher- John 14:26
He gives me the right words to say Mark 13:11
He empowers me to be a witness- Acts 1:8
Receive His many gifts by faith:
Righteousness Peace and Joy- Romans 14:17
Love- Romans 5:5
Wisdom and revelation- 1 Corinthians 2:10
I hope you are as encouraged by these Scriptures as I am:-) I call you blessed!
