WHAT ARE WE DOING DURING THIS TIME?
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever… (Hebrews 13:8 NKJV)
How do we strengthen our relationship with the Holy Spirit?
1. Reduce the time spent watching the news. Don’t wake up watching news, don’t turn on the TV when you wake up. If you only listen to the news you will be filled with doom and disgrace, you need to come to the Holy Spirit and if you come to Him you will hear different things.
2. Reinforce the time you speak with the Holy Spirit.Decrease the time for the news and increase the time with the Holy Spirit and you will hear different things; through prayer, the Bible and writing what God speaks to you. Write your devotional, don’t just be waiting for your leader’s devotional.
3. Remember what God has done before. God has already helped you before. Remembering it gives us confidence that God will do it again.
Tell the Holy Spirit that you want an intimate relationship with Him and remember everything He has done for you, He will remind you that He has saved you before, and that He will keep you once again, He will remind you of when he opened the sea so that his people would pass by dry. He will remind you that Daniel and his friends did not get burned in the fiery furnace, He will remind you that when Daniel was thrown to the lions, they did nothing to him, he will remind you that in times of crisis it was when we made our temple, he will remind you that It is in this temple where you have seen miracles, he will remind you when he took care of you in your journey to this country, and that he freed you from all evil, and just as he has done before, he will do it again in your life. The Holy Spirit will take care of you, protect you and keep you, will keep you in peace and secure, because:
Think about it:
Do you spend more time listening to news than praying?
Are you taking time to listen to the Holy Spirit?
What has God done in your life? What miracles have you experienced?
