Grace and peace to you and yours in our Lord.
Before the Master left this earth, He assured His disciples (including us) that He would not leave us on our own without help. "And I will pray the Father, and He shall give you another Comforter, that He may abide with you forever; Even the Spirit of truth... for He dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you." (John 14:16-18)
The Holy Spirit came on the Day of Pentecost recorded in Acts 2, and He's been here available to every believer since then. Still many Christians are going through their life depending only on their own very-limited knowledge and understanding for guidance and making life choices. The scripture says, "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths." (Proverbs 3:5,6)
We are not supposed to live this life by ourselves. The Lord saw we needed help, and He gave His Spirit to indwell us and help us every moment of every day of our lives. Notice how He repeats the words that His Spirit "will shew you" in these verses: "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. He shall glorify me: for He shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you. All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that He shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you." (John 16:13-15)
Every day and night, His Spirit is endeavoring to reveal and show us the truth, show us what is right, show us the good ways of God, and reveal each part of His perfect plan for our lives--the very things we need at the time we need them. While many never check with Him or even ignore what He's showing them, you and I are going to look to Him and receive His help. Amen?
A recent message the Lord gave us about this is "He Will Show You." (Click the Featured Message box on the website.) As you listen to it, focus your attention on the Holy Spirit inside you, and you'll immediately become more aware of His Presence. Practice this as a lifestyle, and His leadings and showing you things will become more distinct and more clear to you than they've ever been. To follow Him fully is to be fully blessed, fully protected, fully graced and anointed, and fully provided for and prospered. Continual communion with the Holy Spirit inside us is our amazing inheritance in Him.
Thank you for believing in us and being such a vital part of this ministry. We thank God for you often.
Ministers together with you,
