I thank the Lord so much for the person of the Holy Spirit who is such a wonderful mentor and coach who always has our best interest at heart in all things. The Holy Spirit has the role of working with us until we achieve the goal of inheriting the promises of God in our lives as we walk in everything Jesus died for us to partake of.
It is such a beautiful thing to be partakers of the Divine nature of God by experiencing His Power working in and through us mere mortals to glorify His Precious Name. 2 Peter.1:3 & 4.
I am so happy that Jesus chose us to be His disciples. He has provided a curriculum for us which enables us to be victorious and triumphant in all things that pertain to our lives and Godliness. Take some time to just worship and thank the Lord for the wonderful and indescribable gift of the Holy Spirit that causes us to triumph and manifest the fragrance of the knowledge of God in every place. 2 Corinthians.2:14-16.
It is so beautiful to note that when the Apostle Paul wrote those words in 2 Corinthians.2:14 he had just missed out on an opportunity to minister the gospel unimpeded by attacks. However had no rest in his soul so was unable to capitalize on the open door opportunity and had to leave.
I recall asking the Lord at the time how can the apostle Paul say that the Lord always leads us out in triumph when he had just missed the opportunity and had no triumph in that venture through ministering to that company of believers.
The Holy Spirit reminded me that He led Paul into the place of triumph but it was Paul who did not walk in the position of triumph, so we cannot say that the Holy Spirit does not lead us into triumph because He always does but we must walk with Him to experience the triumph.
That truth has stuck with me all these years and is a constant reminder that God will not fail me and all I need to do is cooperate with Him by yielding and surrendering to His leading which results in triumph becoming my portion all the days of my life.
We are the workmanship of God created in Christ Jesus for a life of good works prepared beforehand that we should walk in them. This truth is so real that the Apostle Paul mentions in Ephesians.2:10 and we should seek to walk in that reality all the days of our lives as we repent and turn from sin and error whenever we stray from that truth quickly to be restored back to life by the Holy Spirit.
Being what God created us to be is the greatest thing that we can ever experience in life because we get to have His impartation of resurrection life working in us both to will and to do for His Own good pleasure.
When Jesus told the Apostles in John.14:12 that the works I do shall you do also, Paul in this verse in Ephesians shows us how this becomes reality through the working of the Holy Spirit in our daily lives to see those works of miracles, signs and wonders which God made ready and available for each of our lives to perform on His behalf.
Yes God wants to work miracles through you. What a privilege and honor to be counted in that class of glory because of a choice God made to include us as participants in the process of doing miracles.
We need not boast in our strength because it is nothing we do but what He did for us by imparting grace to us by which we perform on His behalf. Just take the time to offer praise and thanksgiving to God for this great privilege as the Apostle Paul mentions in Hebrews.13:15 offering continually the sacrifice of praise that is the fruit of our lips.
The Lord does not want our mouths to complain by moaning and speaking lies to Him and about Him. We must revere Him for all He has done to redeem and save us by giving us a grand present with a much greater future in all of His goodness made ready for us to share in.
So today rest fully in the reality of these words of Divine love already made available to you by allowing the Holy Spirit to reign over your life by bringing you to the expected place of glory in Jesus to which you have been called by God to inherit in Jesus name . Amen.
