Sunday, August 18, 2024Key Verse
“All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.” John 16:15
Text — John 16:12-16
Message
God is good and loving. He desires a sweet and friendly relationship with us just like He had with Abraham. The Holy Spirit was sent to us after the departure of Jesus. It is our duty to build up relationship with Him. The Holy Spirit is a gentle Spirit and does not come when He is not invited, does not strive so much with man. This is why we must be so intentional in building up a relationship with Him.
Knowing the Holy Spirit takes time and this is the reason we should always give Him time. The Holy Spirit can communicate to us like we do to our friend and can reveal so many things to us that we need to know but do not know. The Holy Spirit is a true friend that never betrays and He is there to guide us on our path to Heaven. The best friend to have is the Holy Spirit because He is the one Who will comfort us and guide us into all truths. You must desire Him today and pray fervently to be filled with the power of the Holy Ghost.
