EVERYDAY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT (5)



November 5, The Holy Spirit's voice and guidance should never be absent or lacking in the believer's life and ministry. Negligence had turned many into unfruitfulness and falsehood!

The Holy Spirit in the Bible – REVELATION
1:11 “I was in the Spirit on the Lords day, and I heard behind me a loud voice, as of a trumpet.”Surely, the revelation of John was by the Holy Spirit. No one hears from God without His Spirit.

 2:7 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches…”
(See also 2:7; 11, 17, 29, 3:6, 13, 22) The occurrences of the same warning by John show how significant it is to the church at all times. Note the rewards of those who overcome because of their heed over what the Holy Spirit is saying in some of the verses.

4:2 “Immediately I was in the Spirit; and behold, a throne set in heaven, and one sat on the throne.” Yes it is only when we are in the Spirit that we can see Christ on His throne and truly adores His majesty.

14:13 “… blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on! Yes says the Spirit that they may rest from their labors, and their works follow them.” “Yes”, says the Holy Ghost. He announces the blessings and the rest of the faithful one who died in the Lord. When you will be biding farewell to the world, will you hear the sound or the declaration of the Holy Spirit about your faithfulness in the Lord? Yes, make sure it is so in Jesus' name. Amen!

17:3 “So he carried me away in the Spirit into the wilderness. And I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast which was full of names of blasphemy...” The angel can minister to us by the Holy Spirit and by the same Spirit we can see plans of the wicked and expose them to the glory of God in Jesus' Name.

21:10 “And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great mountain, and showed me the great city the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from Gog.”Another angelic transport by the Holy Spirit. The revelation of the Holy city from God. The kingdom of heaven can only be seen and entered by the Holy Spirit. (Jn. 3:3, 5). Let us not get unnecessarily busy for the kingdoms or the Fathers business without the Holy Spirit full participation; it is obviously a waste of time and futile exercise!

 22:17 “And the Spirit and the bride say, 'Come! And let him who hears says, 'Come! And ' let him who thirst come. Whoever desires let him take the water of life freely.”
The last verse about the Holy Spirit in the entire Bible has this last message, the Holy Spirit and the bride (church) are now together making a passionate invitation to the listening ears of the end time and the thirsty for the water of life.
