Bible Verse of The Day – 9-8-22

Luke 4:1 (NKJV) 1 Then Jesus, being filled with the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness…

Jesus was led into the wilderness. There He fasted for 40 days and 40 nights. In Luke 4:2, it says, afterwards He was hungry.

The devil came to Him right after and said, “if You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread”.

What a temptation! After not eating for 40 days, bread would taste mighty good, wouldn’t it?

But Jesus was onto him, through the help of the Holy Spirit. And His reply was that of the Son of God, a Man filled with the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Matthew 4:4 (NKJV) 4 But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.

The devil came to Him two other times and tempted Him while in the wilderness. And each time Jesus rebuked his offer, and replying with the Word of God.

Praise You, Lord, for Your focus and strength to stay on track.

If Jesus, the Son of the Mighty God, needed the Holy Spirit to fill Him and work through Him, we most definitely need Him moving and helping us daily.

We all need to stop trying to be the hero on this journey of life as a believer. We don’t help God. He helps us.

We aren’t doing anything for Him in and of ourselves. His word says that without His help, we can do nothing.

John 15:5 (NKJV) 5 “I am the vine; you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.

This may be a hard thing for some people to swallow. But so many have it backwards; we need God in order to win battles, to move mountains and to lead people to Christ. He sent us a Helper because He knew we would need Him.

The devil will tempt us daily, hourly, minute by minute. We must be strong enough to resist Him and do just that.

James 4:7 (NKJV) 7 Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

Be filled with our Helper, the Holy Spirit, just as Jesus was filled.

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-4-18

Matthew 16:15-16 (NKJV) 15 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” 16 Simon Peter answered and said, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”

He was the Christ, the Son of the living God! He lived among man and He was perfect. He was pure. He was righteous and miraculous in His life here!

The work that was done through Jesus Christ was done solely by the power of the Holy Spirit.

John 1:32 (NKJV) 32 And John bore witness, saying, “I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and He remained upon Him.

The Holy Spirit remained upon Jesus throughout His work here on this earth.

It is impossible for any man or woman to minister, in the way God has intended for us, without the anointing of the Holy Spirit. And it is impossible to live the life God has intended for us individually without the Holy Spirit moving through us.

John 14:26 (NKJV) 26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.

We need our Helper. We need to be taught, prompted and reminded constantly throughout our day of the things we need to hear, do and say.

Some of us have been trying so hard to get things right. Our hearts are willing, but we keep failing because we lack what it will take to get it done. It takes the Holy Spirit.

Today, ask Him to come and help us in our decisions, in our trials, in our raising and training up of our children, in our ministry and in our everyday walk.

Bible Verse of The Day – 4-15-16

Matthew 9:12 (NKJV) 12 When Jesus heard that, He said to them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick.

Following the example of Jesus, we too need to help those that need Him.

We need to help those that are spiritually dead. They are without Christ, empty, lost and without help. They are trying to make it, trying to succeed, and trying hard to pull it together on their own.

It’s important that we allow God to help us know how to reach those that are ready and willing. That we may move in such a way that it is life-changing and it touches them in the deepest part of their heart.

How does one reach that deep part of the heart of man? Through the help and guidance of God Himself. Just as He anointed His Son, Jesus, it’s important that we too have help.

Luke 4:18 (NKJV) 18 “The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, Because He has anointed Me To preach the gospel to the poor;

Jesus did the things He did through the power and the anointing of God’s Spirit. God’s anointing moved on Jesus and miracles happened, along with healing, deliverances, etc.

God sent us a Helper so that we too can be led according to His will, His timing, His accuracy, and with His strength. Our Helper is the Holy Spirit.

The church is not going to see miracles, deliverance, healing, or breakthroughs, etc. if we don’t have the Holy Spirit helping us.

Bride of Christ, children of the most High, we encourage you today, if you have not asked The Holy Spirit to come and fill you and be your Helper, today is your day.

Jesus was anointed to do the things He did. The disciples were filled with the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:1-4) and we need this Helper in our lives if we want to see a difference in ourselves and in those that we reach out to. Amen.

John 14:26 (NKJV) 26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.
