John 14: 16 – 18 (KJV)
And I will pray the Father, and He shall give you
another Comforter, that he may abide with you forever; Even the Spirit of
truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth
him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. I will not
leave you comfortless: I will come to you.
WALKING
IN THE COMFORT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
Acts 9: 26 – 31 (KJV)
And when Saul was come to Jerusalem, he assayed to
join himself to the disciples: but they were afraid of him, and believed not
that he was a disciple. But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the apostles,
and declared unto them how he had seen the Lord in the way, and that he had
spoken to him, and how he had preached boldly at Damascus in the name of Jesus.
And he was with them coming in and going out at Jerusalem. And he spake boldly
in the name of the Lord Jesus, and disputed against the Grecians: but they went
about to slay him. Which when the brethren knew, they brought him down to
Caesarea, and sent him forth to Tarsus. Then had the churches rest throughout
all Judaea and Galilee and Samaria, and were edified; and walking in the fear
of the Lord, and in the comfort of the Holy Ghost, were multiplied.
The Holy Spirit in my walk with God:
·
Takes a
central position (2 Corinthians 13:14)
·
Serves as
the seal of God's promise (Ephesians 1:13)
·
Seals my
redemption (Ephesians 4:30)
·
Affirms
both the humanity and the divinity of Jesus after The Cross (1John 5:7-8)
·
Works out
His Comfort in me and in others (2 Corinthians 1:3-5)
In
retaining my comfort and still be able to comfort others, I MUST:
1. Live up to “The Truth” revealed
in the word of God – living one day at a time through God's word, knowing the
Comfort of His word (Psalm 42:11...)
Prayer:
Lord
please do not let me lose sight of Your Word: Keep me near “The Life” and “The
Light” of Your word.
2. Pursue deliberate commitment to
The Cross – an effortless way into divine comfort. (2 Corinthians 1:5-7)
Prayer:
Lord
please grant me a fresh revelation of the Person, the Power, the Presence and
the Plea of The Cross in my life. Baptise me into the comfort of The Cross of
Jesus.
3. Walk in the reality of my stand
in Christ – despite challenges and difficulties. (Philippians 3:7-10)
Prayer:
Lord
please let me always be found in Christ. Handle anything that is blocking my
sight of Jesus, and enlarge my heart for the truth of The Gospel.
4. Act quickly on the ignorance of
the comfort in Christ Jesus – being ignorant of this comfort hinders the flow
of the unique satisfaction from my life to Jesus. (Matthew 11:28-30)
Prayer:
·
Lord
please restore all that I have lost due to the ignorance of my comfort in
Jesus.
·
Open all
the doors that this ignorance has shut in my life.
·
Holy
Spirit – The Comforter, please make my life comfortable, teach me all I need to
know, and guide me in the way to Eternal Life.
