THE SPIRIT IN YOU

-

Acts 1:8

But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you. And you will be my witnesses, telling people about me everywhere—in Jerusalem, throughout Judea, in Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”


When we were saved, God anointed us with His Holy Spirit and empowered us. Christ came to show us how this works.


Acts 10:38

"how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him.


1John 2:27

But the anointing which you have received from Him abides in you, and you do not need that anyone teach you; but as the same anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you will abide in Him.


The reason for the anointing is to serve, to do good. God directs us to make a good impact. We fulfill His purpose and we enjoy the privilege of sonship.


Remember:


Romans 8:14

For all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God.


Every believer receives the measure of the Spirit to be relevant to the body of Christ and to reach out to the world.


2Corinthians 5:20a

Therefore we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us:


In essence, we are anointed so that wherever we are it is right to say God is there!


Genesis 41:38

And Pharaoh said to his servants, "Can we find such a one as this, a man in whom is the Spirit of God?"


Romans 8:19

For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God.


If we reflect back into the days gone by this year, can we say we have worked in the Spirit, have we made the most of the Spirit?


Let us remember that our being born of God is unto all good works. If we are instructed and we keep on ignoring, it will get to the point we rarely get any instruction.


1Thessalonians 5:19

Do not quench the Spirit.


As we go about our activities this remaining part of the year, may we represent the Most High in word, in conduct and in deeds.


O help us Good Lord.


PRAYER

Loving Father, You have given me Your Spirit, fill me with Your Holy Spirit. May I obey You in all things that I may edify Your church and be used to save the world. Glory to Your name Lord forevermore. 


He calls us blessed.


Love

MAINTAIN A GODLY MARRIAGE

-
Judges 13:2-3,6,10 In those days a man named Manoah from the tribe of Dan lived in the town of Zorah. His wife was unable to become pregnant, and they had no children. The angel of the Lord appeared to Manoah’s wife and said, “Even though you have been unable to have children, you will soon become pregnant and give birth to a son. The woman ran and told her husband, “A man of God appeared to me! He looked like one of God’s angels, terrifying to see. I didn’t ask where he was from, and he didn’t tell me his name. So she quickly ran and told her husband, “The man who appeared to me the other day is here again!” We live in times when the institution of marriage is being destroyed from in and out of the church. Divorce rate is high and many are in a marriage but are not happy therein. What is the problem? God has been taken out of the equation. How? Jesus said: Matthew 19:8 Jesus replied, “Moses permitted divorce only as a concession to your hard hearts, but it was not what God had origina

Remember: God is in control.

As we go through the 11th month of this year of accomplishment, let us be reminded. When it seems to hurt so much, or it all looks quiet and alone, when it appears not to work out. Please don't give up, God is still in control Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. My dear it is not about how you feel, and not about what it seems, it is about what He Has promised and He who promised is sure to keep His Word. Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:12 " Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you." God is in control and His plans for you are good. He has already done it. Romans 4:21 " and being fully convinced that what He had promised He was also able to perform." Have a

IF HE SAID IT, HE WILL DO IT

Joshua 21: 43-45 So the Lord gave to Israel all the land he had sworn to give their ancestors, and they took possession of it and settled there. And the Lord gave them rest on every side, just as he had solemnly promised their ancestors. None of their enemies could stand against them, for the Lord helped them conquer all their enemies. Not a single one of all the good promises the Lord had given to the family of Israel was left unfulfilled; everything he had spoken came true. If the Lord promised it be rest assured that He will bring it to pass. The One He gave the promise to believed it whole heatedly and proved it by His obedience. The same with his son and further on to his grandson. Hebrews 11:8-9 It was by faith that Abraham obeyed when God called him to leave home and go to another land that God would give him as his inheritance. He went without knowing where he was going. And even when he reached the land God promised him, he lived there by faith—for he was like a foreig
