Bible Note: Some thoughts... What if the Holy Spirit actually showed up? Doesn't work that way...this is not a "show"...He doesn't make "appearances". As someone mentioned earlier He is present at every service. Isaiah 57:15 For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones. We come together for prayer and worship (church). Seeds are planted. Then we are scattered. Isaiah 61:9b (KJV) ...all that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed that the Lord hath blessed. Matthew 5 3 Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 4 Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. 5 Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. 6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. 7 Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy. 8 Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. 9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God. 10 Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 11 Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. 12 Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you. Most of us spend 6 hours or less inside the doors of a church each week. The measure of the working of the Holy Spirit in our lives should not be based on that but rather on the lives we live during the week. The Holy Spirit does not come to make us more spiritual...He comes to make us holy. Holy equals wholly, complete....holiness is kinda like a jigsaw puzzle...when every piece is where it is supposed to be then we are able to see what the Creator intended us to be...WARNING: Each puzzle is unique...pieces that fit one life may not fit another. John 14:26 (KJV) But the Comforter (Counselor...NIV), which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, He shall teach you all things, and bring all things to remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. Without exception new truth is rooted in basic truths...prayer, obedience, love, faith, etc. New truth is seeds grown to maturity and now bearing fruit. (John 14:26...kinda of) Prayer is a relationship. Prayer is intimacy. Prayer is interactive. Prayer is our greatest privilege. Prayer is our greatest need. Prayer is the key to revival. 2 Chronicles 7:14 and Matthew 7:7 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves...Ask, and ye shall receive (men often hate to admit they are lost or do not know the way, hate to ask for direction)... and pray... and seek my face...seek and ye shall find and turn from their wicked ways (omit wicked...His way not my way...get back on the High Way..Isaiah 35:8) knock, and it shall be opened unto you...then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. The evidence of the Holy Spirit? Everywhere!!! Among the hurt...the forgotten...the sick...the wounded...the humble...the poor...wherever there is a need He is there...and those who listen are there (Isaiah 50:4) |
