AMPLIFIED 2015 | Romans 8:26 ¶ In the same way the Spirit [comes to us and] helps us in our weakness. We do not know what prayer to offer or how to offer it as we should, but the Spirit Himself [knows our need and at the right time] intercedes on our behalf with sighs and groanings too deep for words. |

Bible Note: Disciple1968, We're actually indwelt by the Holy Spirit according to 1 Cor. 2:12 "Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may know the things freely given to us by God,". Notice the "have received"- a past completed action! Also, Ephesians 1:13 says "In Him, you also, after listening to the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation—having also believed, you were sealed in Him with the Holy Spirit of promise," It is important to note that believers today are indwelt with the Holy Spirit. It does not come and go. Now, we can "grieve the Holy Spirit, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption" (Eph. 4:30). However, believers are commanded to "be filled with the Spirit" on a continual basis per Eph. 5:18. Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
