VERSE:
We know that we live in him and he in us, because he has given
us of his Spirit.
-- 1 John 4:13
http://www.SearchGodsWord.org/desk/?query=1+John+4:13
THOUGHT:
Our sign of authenticity showing we are truly God's children is
the Holy Spirit who lives in us. The Spirit helps bring forth the
character of God in our lives (Gal. 5:22). The Spirit helps us when
we pray (Rom. 8:26-27). The Spirit empowers us to overcome sin
(Rom. 8:13) and gives us strength to do things we would never
imagine were possible (Eph. 3:14-21). The Spirit comforts us in our
brokenness and makes God's presence real in our lives (John
14:15-26). The Spirit is the truest sign that we are God's children
(Rom. 8:9, 14-16). Thank God for the blessed Holy Spirit!
PRAYER:
Father, I praise you for your holiness, majesty, and power. I
thank you for your loving grace. I am humbled by your sacrificial
love that has saved me. But today, dear Father, I thank you most of
all for your Holy Spirit, who lives in me, who empowers me, who
cleanses me, who comforts me, and who makes your fatherhood
accessible and real to me. Thank you, in the name of Jesus, from
the bottom of my heart! Amen.
