(The Holy Spirit Is All You Ever Need)
TO THE BIBLE: 1 Corinthians 2:12
“Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God.”
LET’S TALK
Arnold said to Erica, “Ever since hands were laid on me, my life hasn’t been the same. In fact, it’s better! It’s like I’m fuelled with a new passion for life and for God!”
Erica smiled and said, “Well, that sounds like you’ve received the Holy Spirit to live inside you. He’s the Best Friend anyone could have, and He’s the reason you have a new zest for the things of the Lord. Congrats!”
Don’t you just love the Holy Spirit? He knows all things, and He’s also everything to us. He’s all you could ever want. For example, did you know that the Holy Spirit keeps our bodies in check with His divine life? Romans 8:11 describes Him as the “Spirit that quickens our bodies.”
If He lives in you, it makes no difference what sickness or disease you’ve been diagnosed with; there’ll be a change. He’ll effect a cure in you.
If you’re currently in school, He’s the One you need to make you excellent and give you success in your academics. He knows all things and will teach you everything you need to know about life.
In John 16:14, Jesus said of Him, “He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you.” The Holy Spirit will take what belongs to Jesus—His wisdom and knowledge—and unveil them to you.
Jesus is the embodiment of all wisdom and knowledge (Colossians 2:3), but the Holy Spirit will take from all that Jesus has and minister it to your spirit. Think about that! When you know and walk with the Holy Spirit, He’ll make your life beautiful, excellent, and full of glory.
Some “preach” about Him but really don’t know Him in truth. Love Him, dearly. Let it be your heart’s most passionate desire to know Him more and more and have Him revealed in your life.
That’s true Christianity: Christ—His anointing, person, character and righteousness—revealed in you! Open your heart to Him. Yield yourself ultimately to Him in love and fellowship, and He’ll show you new frontiers. He’ll take off the limits and position you for endless victories and lasting Kingdom impact.

Pray:
Dear heavenly Father, I thank you for your eternal love for me, demonstrated in granting me the Holy Spirit to live in me and guide me into all truth. Not only have I received Him into my spirit, but I consistently fellowship with Him in truth and love. Therefore, He imparts me with knowledge, wisdom, and guidance in all my affairs, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
