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!

The Goodness of God - Daily Devotional

Verse: Psalm 100:5 (NIV) - "For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations." Devotional: Today, let us reflect on the profound truth that God is good. His goodness is not contingent on our circumstances, but it remains constant, unwavering, and eternal. In Psalm 100:5, we are reminded that the Lord's goodness is inseparable from His enduring love, and His faithfulness transcends generations. As you begin your day, consider the goodness of God in the light of your own life. Think about the moments when His goodness has been evident, whether through answered prayers, unexpected blessings, or moments of divine guidance. God's goodness surrounds us, and even in challenges, there is a purpose that unfolds through His love. In times of joy, acknowledge the goodness of God with gratitude. In times of trial, trust in His goodness, knowing that He works all things for the good of those who love Him (Romans 8:28). Take a ...

Is God real? : Teachings

How do you know God exists? Answer: We know that God is real because He has shown Himself to us in three ways: in creation, in His Word, and in His Son, Jesus Christ. The most fundamental proof of God's existence is just what He did. "Because since the creation of the world, the unseen qualities of God. His everlasting power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse" Romans 1:20. "The heavens speak the glory of God, the heavens speak the work of his hands." Psalm 19:1. If I found a wristwatch in the middle of a field, I would not think that it "appeared" from nowhere or that it always existed. According to the design of the watch, I assume there was a designer. But there is much more design and accurate in the world that surrounds us. Our measure of time is not based on a wristwatch, but on the work of God, the steady rotation of the earth. The universe is full of great designs...

Being content with what you have - Daily Devotional

Bible Verse: "I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all this through him who gives me strength." - Philippians 4:11-13 As Christians, we are called to live a life of contentment. Contentment is a state of being satisfied with what we have, and not constantly desiring more or better. It is not about settling for less, but rather being grateful for what we have been blessed with, while also working towards our goals. The Apostle Paul, in his letter to the Philippians, shares with us the secret of being content in any and every situation. He had experienced both times of abundance and times of great need, yet he remained content. How was he able to do this? By relying on the strength that God provides. As we go through life, we will encounter man...
