The Holy Spirit Is The Power Of God In Our Lives

"...When He, the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on His own; He will speak only what He hears, and He will tell you what is yet to come." (John 16:13)

The Holy Spirit is God.

When Jesus Christ was on this earth, He told His followers, "...You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be My witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." Earlier He had said to them, "It is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Counselor will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you." The Holy Spirit is the power of God in our lives.

When we sincerely ask Jesus Christ to be our Lord and Savior, the Holy Spirit comes and lives in our lives. You can ask God's power, through the Holy Spirit, to flow through your life. You do not have to try to live the Christian life in your own strength and power. It is like trying to row a boat a long ways; it is much better if the boat has an engine to turn on the engine. God's power is much greater than your own.

So do you want to stop a bad habit? Are you tired of getting angry all the time? Do you want to be kind and loving to someone you have a bad relationship with? Then ask forgiveness for your sins in Jesus' name, and ask God through His Holy Spirit to fill you with His power to live a victorious Christian life. He will give you His power to change your life!

This week, let us pray and ask God to

• Fill us with His Holy Spirit and give us the power to overcome one of our key problems
• Protect our staff and volunteers at Global Media Outreach and help us all to be filled and controlled with His Holy Spirit every day
• Bless your families and neighbors and help them to see the love of Jesus Christ in you

THANK YOU and may God richly bless you in His great love.
