The Holy Spirit in the Bible – 1CHRONICLES
12:18 “Then the Spirit came upon Amasai, chief of the captains, and he said: We are yours, O David; we are on your side, o son of Jesse!” Loyalty and submission are the Spirit's attributes in the believer’s life. We must exhibit same in our Christian character. With the Holy Spirit, there is no place for betrayal!
1 Chronicles 28:12 “…and the plans for all that he (David) had by the Spirit, of the house of the Lord, of all the chambers all around, of the treasures of the house of God, and all the treasuries of the dedicated things…” The Holy Spirit gave the plans to David for everything about the temple which Solomon his son would build. That was a physical structure and arrangement. What plans have the present day believer received from the Holy Spirit about the spiritual temple which we are!
2 Chronicles 20:14 “then the Spirit of the Lord came upon Jahaziel the son of Zachariah … in the midst of the assembly”.
This was also for a specific message to the king of Judah, Jehoshaphat, “Do not be afraid nor dismay because of the great multitude, for the battle is not yours, but Gods.”(Vs.15)
What encouragement, only by the Holy Spirit can such powerful pronouncement be made. Holy Spirit, our Helper, do your work in our lives in like manner, in the name of Jesus. Amen!
2 Chronicles 24:20 “Then the Spirit of God came upon Zachariah the son of Jehoiada, the priest who stood above the people, and said to them … Because you have forsaken the Lord, He also has forsaken you.” It is only by the Spirit prompting that the man of God can speak with such boldness to condemn the waywardness of a people. Let no human right activist and politicians take your place as the prophet of God!
