WHO IS THE HOLY SPIRIT?: Daily Devotional

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 (John 14:16 AMPC).

The Holy Spirit is not smoke or a cloud, nor is He a light. He's not a thing! The Holy Spirit is the third person of the Godhead. This is because He is the last of the Trinity known to us! In Genesis 1:1, God was introduced to us as “Elohim” (Hebrew).

"Elohim" is the Hebrew plural for God.

We are told in the second verse that "the Spirit of God hovered upon the face of the deep." Although the Holy Spirit is the first to be revealed from "Elohim", he is the last known to us because of what Jesus said to his disciples in John 14:16-17: "And I will pray the Father, and he will give you another comforter who will be with you forever; Even the spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive because it does not see him and does not know him, but you do know him; for he dwells with you and will be in you.” The Holy Spirit is just like Jesus. It receives no power from God.

Verily He is the POWER of God! He is the spirit of truth emanating from the Father. He is not inferior to the Father, nor is He inferior to Jesus. If you went to heaven, you would not find the Holy Spirit outside of the Father, for He is in the Father.

His presence is everywhere on earth!

Wherever you go as a child of God, the Holy Spirit accompanies you and His presence is contagious in all that is connected with you. He has no other name; “Holy Spirit” or “Holy Spirit” is a description of his person, his character.

Jesus said: “But the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name …” (John 14:26). This simply implies that the Holy Spirit, while not having a proper name, responds to the name of Jesus. Oh, there are so many things to show about this amazing personality!

He is the Beauty of Heaven: our Comforter, Counselor, Helper, Advocate, Advocate, Strengthener and Supporter. Hallelujah!

LET JESUS SAVE YOU : Daily Devotional

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. - Psalm 46:1 Do you think that you are working hard but the results are not coming out? You may feel like you are at a dead end in your career. Or maybe everything you've tried to save your marriage isn't working. Perhaps your hard work has to do with raising children. No matter how much effort you put into your child, your relationship is getting colder every day. My friend, now is not the time to give up, but to listen to your wonderful Savior, Jesus. Listen to him. Instead of relying on your experience and knowledge, rely on Him. you are not alone. Our Lord Jesus told Peter to cast “nets” (plural in Luke 5:4). The request made no sense to Peter because he and his fishermen worked all night and caught nothing. Nevertheless, Peter said in the singular, “You say, I will let down my nets” (Luke 5:5). Naturally, the net began to break and Peter had to call his friends for h...

Trust His Timing - Daily Devotional

Bible Verse: Ecclesiastes 3:1 (NIV) - "There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens." Devotional: In our fast-paced world, it's easy to feel impatient and anxious when things don't happen as quickly as we desire. We often want things to unfold according to our own timelines, but God's ways are higher than ours, and His timing is perfect. As Christians, we are called to trust His timing, knowing that He has a purpose and plan for every season of our lives. In Ecclesiastes 3:1, King Solomon reminds us that there is a time for everything and a season for every activity under the heavens. Just as the changing seasons are a part of God's creation, so are the different seasons in our lives. Each season serves a purpose, whether it be a time of growth, waiting, or healing. During times of waiting, it's natural to feel discouraged or uncertain. But God's Word reassures us that those who wait upon the Lord will renew their...
