The passage above is the explanation of all chaos in the world today. Generally with the fall of man in the Garden of Eden, the world lost its original standard. Everything became corrupt and stripped of God’s intended purpose and plan.
Consequently, many things went wrong and will continue to go wrong till the second coming of Jesus Christ. Let us see some major sources of problems in the world.
A man is who he is and what he is by the grace of God. Whatever achievement, fulfillment and attainment in life are the products of God’s grace. Apostle Paul wrote, by the grace of God I am…
He is the head teacher, principal, rector in the university of God’s kingdom. Whatever faculty of life you are in, He can lead you to understand and excel. Jesus introduced Him in the following words, “But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you
Yes, your human helpers are there but, they are not permanent. They can fail you. But, Jesus said, “the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you. I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you.” (John 14:17-18) Hallelujah!!! You can celebrate and thank God for this great gift. Because the Helper is in you
It is very important to understand the person and ministry of the Holy Spirit in every believer. The Holy Spirit comes into every believer to identify us sons of God and to empower us to testify about Jesus Christ and the kingdom.
The Holy Spirit is the third Person of the Godhead. He is the first to be named distinctly in Genesis. We read in Gen 1: 1-2 ,”In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.”
Jesus himself had told his disciples that it was good for him to go away, because only then would he send them another Helper, the Spirit of truth (John 16:7-16). And that’s exactly what happened on the Day of Pentecost, ten days after Jesus’ ascension. The Spirit descended on the church with power, inaugurating a new age in the history of salvation.
Worry is an irrational emotion of fear missed with desperation. The one who worries is uncertain about the future or the outcome of a situation. Most of the time it is because one looks at the wrong source of confidence.
John, the Apostle of Jesus Christ who used to lay his heart on Jesus’ chest wrote this, “Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.” Hallelujah!
There is a confidence when we come before God in prayer as His beloved children; the confidence is that, God hears the prayers made according to His will. Take note, John says, “Now, this is the confidence… “. So, it is a done and sure fact. God is attentive to the prayers of His children. The basis of this statement is explained in the verses before.
We, Children of God need His wisdom in order to please God and positively influence and impact our environment. God is willing and able to supply it to each of us, when you ask, in order to glorify Him.
John the Baptist also spoke about the Holy Spirit. He explained that Jesus Christ will be the one to baptized his followers with the Holy Spirit and power.
Beloved, you are complete in Christ. You may not yet have a husband, a child or a house of your own, but you are complete in the fulness of God in Christ Jesus.
For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to give strong support to those whose heart is looking up toward him. God shows Himself mighty to those who seek him, who look up to Him
A lover of God is a lover of God’s presence and God’s house. Every genuine child of God loves the house of God. David was a typical example. Nothing moved the heart of David like going to the house or presence of God
Seeking God is the primary duty of all men on earth. Out of God and His will, life is frustrating
God designed the human life to always depend on Him. Our spirit part will always need the life and light of God to strive well. As long as we depend on God, He will make our paths straight.
If there is a man whose life and testimony is worth studying, it is the man, Job. A man of unquestionable spirituality and holiness.
The believer now walks in blessings. We are not just blessed. We are the blessing and the righteousness of God.
Until John the Baptist, no one could be born again with the permanent presence of the Holy Spirit in him
I want you this morning to see how merciful this God is. God is not after the destruction of men he created in His imagine. No! He does not take pleasure in the killing of sinners. Rather, because of His great mercy, He gives an opportunity to every one to repent and be saved.
God is not against you. What ever trouble you face, don’t blame God for any unfortunate situation in your live. Wickedness is not of God.
