Today’s Scripture: John 15:26, NKJV- “But when the Helper comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify of Me.”
I was reminded once again in the early morning darkness of the gift of the Spirit from our Heavenly Father. Imagining Jesus on His knees before the Father in the coolness of the morning air with the chorus of nature in the background, I was there to receive what God gave Jesus.
I was not there to settle my thoughts in the quietness I was there to receive what the Father gives. I had to quiet my mind and trust in the receiving; trusting that God Himself was writing His will upon my heart, my mind and my spirit.
In the way only our Heavenly Father can do I came across this scripture this morning after this time with Him. His Word confirms that the Spirit of truth proceeds FROM the Father and not from what I lift to Him.
Jesus went out to receive this Spirit, shouldn’t we?
Today’s Prayer: Heavenly Father, thank You for the example of Jesus. Thank You for sending us the Spirit of truth. Write upon my heart the word You will for me to receive today. I praise You Father for the word You have given us and I ask Your blessings as we welcome the presence of Your Spirit of truth. Amen.
