Holy Spirit, your life instructor

(Luke 12:11,12 KJV) And when they bring you unto the synagogues, and unto magistrates, and powers, take ye no thought how or what thing ye shall answer, or what ye shall say: For the Holy Ghost shall teach you in the same hour what ye ought to say.


A child of God should never be confounded in life. Why? He has the best teacher in the whole world. This teacher known as the Holy Spirit has more information than any other person does in this planet. He deals in wisdom that is beyond the understanding of this generation.

Jesus told His disciples not to be afraid when they find themselves in difficult situation. That is the reason why they were so bold in the presence of the elites and political leaders of their days. They defended the gospel with all courage and boldness. In spite of their lack of formal education, they spoke boldly before all men.

What the people did not realize was that they were under the tutelage of the best professor. After the day of Pentecost, they were enrolled in the School of the Spirit of God. It made all the difference in their lives. Ordinary fishermen were turned to great preachers and defenders of the gospel.

The good news is that you belong to this dispensation. The same Holy Spirit can instruct and lead you in life. Yield yourself totally to Him and you will have more understanding about life issues than the greatest philosopher of your time.


DAILY SCRIPTURE READING: Luke 12:1-15.




MY DAILY CONFESSION
I am a new creation in Christ Jesus. I am the temple of the Holy Spirit. I keep God's temple holy and God is always pleased with me.

The Spirit of Him that raised Jesus Christ from the dead dwells in me. I am quickened from within. My body and soul are full of God's life as a result of the working of the Spirit on my inside.

Greater is He that lives within me than the one that lives in the world. I can do all things through the Spirit of God that strengthens me.

I have an anointing from the Holy One and I know all things. The Spirit of God that lives on my inside teaches me all things about life.

I have been adopted as a Son into the kingdom and I am always led by the Spirit of God. His divine power has given me all things that pertain to life and godliness.

I am never confused in life because the Spirit of God leads and guides me. God has not given the spirit of fear but that of love, sound mind, and power.
