Our supernatural Comforter

Read John 16:5-16

Reflection of Tommy:

Many Christians today going through their daily life without giving any thought or awareness of the presence and indwelling of the Holy Spirit in them. Instead of seeking help and guidance from this great and supernatural Comforter God has given to them, they rely entirely on their own strength to deal with things in their lives.

In verse 13, Jesus said He would send the Holy Spirit as a Comforter who would guide us into all truth. When we confess all known sin and then depend on the Holy Spirit to guide us (Gal. 5:16,18), we can be assured to be made known the truth about Christ and the purpose of our lives here on earth. We will also be led by the Spirit to a deeper relationship with God and to walk firmly down the path He has prepared for us.

Dear Father, thank You for sending a Comforter that guides me in all my ways. Thank You for teaching me to seek the Spirit’s direction and patience practice to discern all the rights from wrongs. May the Spirit continue to lead me in serving You and Your people with the right intention and way, glorifying Your Name always. In Jesus’ Name I pray, Amen.
