“AND NO ONE CAN KNOW GOD’S THOUGHTS EXCEPT GOD’S OWN SPIRIT. AND WE HAVE RECEIVED GOD’S SPIRIT (NOT THE WORLD’S SPIRIT). SO, WE CAN KNOW THE WONDERFUL THINGS GOD HAS FREELY GIVEN US.” 1 CORINTHIANS 2: 11 & 12
Our God in heaven has given the Holy Spirit as a free gift to live within us and guide us in our daily lives. When we receive the Holy Spirit, we can then understand and know the wonderful things our Lord has freely given us. Why? Because the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of our God, and only God’s own Spirit can know his thoughts. That same spirit now lives inside us. His Spirit has been described a “small still voice.” To hear his voice, we must be quiet and listen closely. If we are totally involved in our daily lives and never take the time to be quiet, then we will never be able hear his voice. When Jesus was taken up to heaven to sit at the right hand of God, Our God then sent his third person, manifested in the presence of the Holy Spirt, to help us and to guide us. When we are going through tough times it is wise to sit back, be quiet and listen to that small still voice. It will help us and guide us. His thoughts and directions for our lives will match perfectly to what he says in his Holy Word. Don’t try to go through this world alone, but instead, use the free gift our God has given us, his precious Holy Spirit! PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL SITUATIONS!
