Fruit That Will Last

The Holy Spirit is Our Helper

We cannot do anything without Jesus (John 15:5). When Jesus went back to heaven, He sent the Holy Spirit as our guide and comforter. Jesus said the Holy Spirit would “teach us all things, and He will remind us of everything Jesus said to us” (John 14:25-26). 

 

As children of God, we have been given the Spirit of Jesus in our hearts, where we can cry “Our Father” (Galatians 4:6-7)! But, the most beautiful thing is that the Spirit we received talks to our spirit, saying that “we are children of God” (Romans 8:14-17).

 

Jesus taught that trusting and obeying His word shows that we love Him, and because we love Him, God the Father will love us also. Jesus promises those who love Him that He and the Father will come and make their home with each of us (John 14:22-23). This is most wonderful to have God, the Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ living in us.

 

Look at how this wonderful union is mentioned in Ephesians 3:14-19. We are told that we are a part of a heavenly and earthly family. Each family member is strengthened by the Holy Spirit in our inner being so that Jesus Christ may live in our hearts by faith. Once that is done, we will begin to understand, with the other saints, the magnificent love of Christ and to be filled with the fullness of God, our Father.

 

The Spirit of Jesus continues to teach us to apply the Word of God in our daily lives and to spread His word to others (Matthew 28:16-20). Building this website helps us to impact the lives of others through bible literacy, music, gardening, and technology.
