Our Helper
No one can say that Jesus is Lord except by the Holy Spirit.
1 Corinthians 12:3 Scripture reading: John 14:16–31
The Holy Spirit has a royal plan, a heavenly plan. He came to unveil the King, to show the character of God, to unveil the precious blood.
We read of some who heard the Word but did not benefit from it, because faith was lacking in them (Rom. 9:6–8). We must have a living faith in God’s Word, a faith that is quickened by the Spirit.
A man may be saved and still have a human spirit. In many people who hear about the baptism of the Holy Spirit, the human spirit immediately arises against the Holy Spirit. The human spirit is not subject to the law of God, nor can it be. (See Romans 8:7.) The disciples at one time wanted to call down fire from heaven, and Jesus said to them, “You do not know what manner of spirit you are of” (Luke 9:55). The human spirit is not subject to the law of God. The Holy Spirit came forth for one purpose: to reveal Jesus to us. Jesus “made Himself of no reputation” (Phil. 2:7), and He was obedient unto death (v. 8), that God should forever hold Him up as a token of submissive yieldedness. Amen
