Word For Today: He Speaks Through The Word!

He Speaks Through The Word! · Thursday, August 15th · 

Pastor Anita

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 (John 16:13).

If you’re born again, the Spirit of God lives in you, and He guides you by the Word, in the way that you should go. The Word of God is the voice of God, and that’s your surest-guide in life. Getting yourself acquainted with the Word is the way to know the counsel of the Spirit. Jesus said in John 10:27, "My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me."

In John 14:16 (AMP), He made another emphatic statement about the ministry of the Holy Spirit in leading and guiding you in life: "And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Comforter (Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener, and Standby), that He may remain with you forever." The Holy Spirit lives in you and with you; He counsels you from within, in line with God’s Word. No other personality in this life can lead you into success, victory and rest as the Holy Spirit would. He’ll guide you to make accurate decisions, go to the right places at the right time, and do the right things the first time, for God’s glory.

Recognize the person and ministry of the Holy Spirit in your life. Don’t just talk to Him; learn to listen to Him as well; He’s always talking to your spirit. Through the Word, He guides and leads you from glory to glory. He cares about everything you do; He takes interest even in the minutest detail about your life. It’s His pleasure to successfully guide you through all your endeavours from day to day.

Many have made grievous mistakes in their lives for not listening to the voice of the Holy Spirit. It’s not hard at all to follow His leading, because His counsel and guidance are always in sync with the Word. Your life will be the expression of God’s glory, beauty, wisdom, and grace as you yield to Him by following His Word.

Prayer

Dear Father, I thank you for your glory in my life. Thank you for beautifying me with your grace and filling me with your wisdom; I function excellently today, through the power of the Holy Spirit who lives in me and guides me from within, piloting me from glory to glory, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
