THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH, PART 2
First we had to be born again by accepting the sacrifice that Jesus made for all of mankind.2 Corinthians 5:17
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
He then instructed us to be filled with power from on high.
Luke 24:49
And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of
Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.
Then we are to increase in the good will and loving-kindness of God. Growing in grace.
Knowing there is security, safety and prosperity in the “salvation” purchased through the blood of our Lord Jesus Christ. Fearing nothing from God and content. This is what it means to walk in the grace of God and be led by the Spirit of Truth.
The passage below shows how the Spirit of God accomplishes so much in the earth today.
He does not speak of Himself. He testifies of Jesus.
John 16:7-16
7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send
him unto you.
8 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:
9 Of sin, because they believe not on me;
10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;
11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.
12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.
13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth:
for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.
14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
15 All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of
mine, and shall shew it unto you.
16 A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go to the Father.
IN CLOSING
Proverbs 20:5
Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water; but a man of understanding will draw it out.
Pray, fellowship with the Father and meditate in His word. Draw it out. God said His word was a more sure word of prophecy and that He magnified His word above His name. Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus. Study to show yourself approved a workman that needeth not to be ashamed.
There is a "SET ORDER" to applications of life and ministry.
GOD HAS A BLUEPRINT FOR YOUR LIFE AND MINISTRY.
HE IS NOT WITHHOLDING IT FROM YOU.
Embrace the season you are in now. Our mark is the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Faithfulness and Obedience are the keys to success. Lean on the Spirit of God. He will "guide" you into "all" truth.
2 Corinthians 13:14
14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the "communion"
of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen.
Paul wanted us to know that God is faithful and that the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost was with us.
Thank God for the Holy Ghost, the "One" Who was sent from the Father, the "Spirit of Truth."
Until next time, KEEP THE FAITH !!!!!!!
