TOPIC: ROLE OF THE HOLY GHOST IN THE LIFE OF A BELIEVER
TEXT: John 14:16-17
KEY VERSE: Act 10:38 How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.

We are in the dispensation of the Holy Spirit but many believers are yet to derive full benefit of the presence of the Holy Spirit in the Church. The Holy Spirit was sent by Jesus as helper and guide to the church in this troubled era. Some of the roles of the Holy Spirit in the church are: 

a. To guide believers into all truth (John 16:13). He is called the Spirit of truth who reveals the truth about God, His word, His salvation, His judgment and every truth of righteousness that will prepare the believer for heaven.
b. To teach all things (John. 14:26). He is our teacher. He illuminates and expounds the word of God for our perfect understanding and spiritual maturity.
c. To comfort (John 16:7). To comfort us in time of needs, tribulation and trials while God works out a solution.
d. Brings all things to our remembrance (John 14:26). “All things” means not only spiritual matters but also secular issues.
e. To testify of Jesus (John 15:26). The Spirit works within us to do what is necessary to deepen the awareness of the presence of Jesus in our lives, and love him more.
f. To convict us of sin, righteousness and judgment (John 16:8-11). He is the voice of our conscience that rebukes us whenever we do wrong.
g. He guides us into all truths (John 16:13; Rom 8:14): He leads us by inner witness.
h. He shows us things to come (John 16:13-15). He is the one that gives the revelations of Jesus.
i. He is the Christian seal. Mark of God’s ownership (Eph. 1:13 – 14). 
j. He is our sanctifier (Rom. 15:16; 1 Peter 1:2). An experience subsequent to salvation.
k. He intercedes for us (Romans 8: 16 – 17)
l. He is the Giver of spiritual gifts (1 Corinthians 12:7–11). He distributes spiritual gifts to believers to profit the church.
m. He produces His fruit to enable us develop Christ-like characters (Gal. 5:22 – 23).

Thought for the day: God cannot be served in human strength. Let the Holy Spirit lead and direct.
Song for the day: Spirit do it again … Do it again in my life
Bible reading for the day:
Judges 12-14; Luke 9:37-62

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...

The Testimony Of Jesus Is Spirit Of Prophecy.

God's blessings will continually accompany you for dedicating time to your studies. The Testimony Of Jesus Is Spirit Of Prophecy.  Monday 10th November  Text: Jude 1: 2-5 Key verse: Jude 1: 3 Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints. The faith of Jesus has already been delivered and it is written in the scriptures. Whatever prophecies, revelations or dreams that comes must not be contrary to the standard in the scripture. They must speak the same thing. The testimony of Jesus is spirit of prophecy. Every prophecy or revelation must honour Jesus and must be according to the written word. Even where they are new things, they must not contradict because the Bible is a summary of the things Jesus did. The Bible cannot contain all things. It must be according to what the scripture has already signified, ...
