Spirit of Truth: The Holy Spirit working in You

As a born-again follower of Christ, Christians get an amazing gift to help them get through this life on earth--the Spirit of truth. How does the Holy Spirit work in our lives? Let's take a look at these wonderful bible passages that shed light on how the Holy Spirit works in our lives:


The Holy Spirit Teaches and Guides You


"But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you." -John 14:26


"However, when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will show you things to come." -John 16:13


"For the Holy Ghost shall teach you in the same hour what you ought to say." -Luke 12:12




The Holy Spirit Testifies about Christ 


"When the Advocate comes, whom I will send to you from the Father—the Spirit of truth who goes out from the Father—he will testify about me." -John 15:26




The Holy Spirit Convicts You and Others of Sin


"When he comes, he will prove the world to be in the wrong about sin and righteousness and judgment." -John 16:8




The Holy Spirit Intercedes for Us


"And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God." -Romans 8:27


"In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans." -Romans 8:26




Those with the Holy Spirit are children of God


"For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God." -Romans 8:14




The Holy Spirit Gives us the Mind of Christ!


"For who knows a person’s thoughts except their own spirit within them? In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God... Who has known the mind of the Lord so as to instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ." -1 Corinthians 2:11,16




The Holy Spirit Lives in You!


"And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever—the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you." -John 14:16,17



Last but not least: The Holy Spirit gives You POWER!


"But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." -Acts 1:8




Amen! God bless you all.
