“But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me…” (Acts 1:8 KJV).
The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of power. When He came to live in you, He brought the dynamic ability to cause changes. That power is not dormant; it’s stirred through prayer, faith, and bold confessions of the Word. He’s also the Spirit of revelation. He unveils mysteries and brings divine insight to your spirit. He’s the advantage within you.
Through Him, you understand things others can’t grasp. It’s part of the blessings and benefits of praying in the Spirit. When you spend time praying in the Spirit, the wisdom of God rises within you, and answers flood your spirit. Your spirit is enlightened with innovations and solutions.
Every time you face a challenge, remember that the Holy Spirit is the advantage within you. You’re never helpless or defeated because His power is active in you. Depend on Him for direction, solutions and strength. As you yield to Him and fellowship with Him, His glory manifests in and around you. He’ll talk with you, walk with you, and reveal God’s heart to you always.
Through fellowship, He communicates divine ideas and guidance to you. He makes the Word come alive in you and keeps your spirit aflame with passion for the Lord. You’ll never walk in confusion or fear because His presence provides direction and assurance. God never intended for you to struggle through life alone; He gave you His Spirit so that you might live in continual victory.
Additionally, the Holy Spirit is the Father at work in you. Through His ministry, you can do the impossible and work the miraculous. Make time each day to commune with Him; speak to Him from your heart, and listen for His voice in your spirit. Acknowledge Him in all that you do, and you’ll always walk in victory.
PRAYER/CONFESSION
"Dear Father, I thank you for the fellowship and partnership of the Holy Spirit in my life. I cherish His divine presence and person in me; He’s my guide, my comforter and my ultimate advantage. Even now, your glory, wisdom, power and love are manifest in my life because I walk in the Spirit and I’m led by the Spirit, in Jesus’ Name. Amen."
