EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (2)


November 2 reminds of the function of the Holy Spirit in us to be of uncompromising love to God Almighty and towards one another...
  James 4:5 “…the Spirit who dwells in us yearns jealousy?”
Of a truth the Spirit of God dwelling in the believer stirs up faith and commitment to love God Almighty in Christ Jesus! And this kind of love towards God and our fellow brothers should be guarded jealously in Jesus Name!
The Holy Spirit in the Bible – PETER
1 Peter 1:2 “… elect according to the fore knowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit…”
1 Peter 1:11 “… the Spirit of Christ who was in them was indicating when He testified before hand the suffering of Christ and the glory that would follow.”
Everything about Jesus and our total redemptive offering was by the Holy Spirit. What else can be done in this world and heaven without Him?
1 Peter 1:12 “To them it was revealed that, not to themselves, but to us they were ministering the things which now have been reported to you through those who preached the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven things which angels desire to look into.”
What glorious advantage for the believer to be engaged in God’s work by the Holy Ghost; a heavenly assignment the angels desired!
1 Peter 1:22 “Since you have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit in sincere love the brethren, love one another fervently with a pure heart…”
(Read verse 23). True obedience is always fulfilled the Holy Spirit’s given truth!
1 Peter 3:18 “…being put to death in the flesh but made alive by the Spirit,”
Surely, the Spirit quickened Christ from the grave, the same is quickening our dying bodies to a fire brand ministry of soul winning and making disciples of all nations!
1 Peter 4:14 “If you are reproached for the name of Christ, blessed are you, for the Spirit of glory and of God rest upon you. On their part He is blasphemed, but on your part He is glorified.”
Yes, By the Holy Spirit’s blessings, we are a blessing to our generation and great honor to God Almighty, in Christ’s Name!
2 Peter 1:21 “For prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.”
It is by the Holy Spirit that we can bear true witness.
