Today’s Scripture: John 14:17 ESV: even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and will be in you.
There is so much comfort knowing that we are at home with the Spirit of God. I often feel this after I have been away from my prayer closet for a few days it sure feels nice to be back home. I don’t need a closet I just need to turn to the Spirit.
Here in John 14 Jesus tells us we were not left as orphans and “If anyone loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.”
The Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father sent in Jesus’ name teaches us all things and reminds us of God’s promise to dwell with us. Dwelling with the Spirit of truth provides all the comforts of our heavenly home.
Will you ask the Holy Spirit to teach you how to dwell with him? He will teach us.
Today’s Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You for Your Son Jesus and for Your Spirit of truth that lives with me. I praise and thank You for desiring to live with me. In You I am at home. I am asking now for Your Spirit of truth to teach me the truth of dwelling in You and You in me. Amen
