The Roles of the HOLY SPIRIT

FATHER, as a Christian my life is an impossible life to live without drawing on Your SPIRIT for “The Spirit of God shatters every power in the world, the flesh and the devil, every power of sin and the domination of Satan” (ref#157, June 15th).

“The Spirit…is Christ without the limitations of the flesh and the material world. He can reveal what Christ could not speak. He has resources of power greater than those Christ could use, and he makes possible greater works than his” (ref#161, p18).

“He is the Spirit of God, the Spirit of truth, the Spirit of witness, the Spirit of conviction, the Spirit of power, the Spirit of holiness, the Spirit of light, the Spirit of adoption, the Spirit of help, the Spirit of liberty, the Spirit of wisdom, the Spirit of revelation, the Spirit of promise, the Spirit of love, the Spirit of meekness, the Spirit of sound mind, the Spirit of grace, the Spirit of glory, and the Spirit of prophecy” Samuel Chadwick (ref#161, p18,19).

FATHER, all Christians have the SPIRIT resident in them but I desire to be “full” of Him—desiring He control me to the point that I am “distinct and observable in some way” to others (ref#161, p109). When I feel my heart warmed with joy, and I’m supported in peace, and established in obedience, let me give Him the praise due Him (ref#35, p422).

Prayer Facts:

“You don’t need self-discipline to pray continuously; you just need to be poor in spirit” (ref#62, p65).

Reasons for Waiting for GOD:

Because You keep covenant, loving-kindness, and mercy for those who love You and keep Your commandments (Neh 1:5), I will wait for You.
Because You do not withdraw Your eyes from me (Job 36:7), I will wait for You.

Because You open my ears to instruction and discipline (Job 36:10), I will wait for You.

Because You give songs of rejoicing in the night (Job 35:10), I will wait for You.

Mightier Than the Thunders of Many Waters

“Mightier than the thunders of many waters,

mightier than the waves of the sea,…” (Ps 93:4 ESV).

“Your throne is established from of old;
You are from everlasting” (Ps 93:2 ESV).

“Both riches and honor come from You,
and You rule over all,…
it lies in Your hand to make great
and to strengthen everyone” (1 Chron 29:12 NASU).

“Before the mountains were brought forth,
or ever you had formed the earth and the world,
from everlasting to everlasting you are God” (Ps 90:2 ESV).

“…Yours is the kingdom…and you are exalted…above all” (1 Chron 29:11 ESV).
