Before Jesus
went back to heaven he explains the Holy Spirit’s role:
John 14:26 “The Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the
Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of
everything I have said to you.”
John 14:17 “He
is the Holy Spirit, who leads into all truth.”
John 16:15 “the
Spirit will take from what is mine and make it known to you”
In Ephesians
Paul says 1:17 “I ask the glorious Father and God of our Lord Jesus Christ
to give you his Spirit. The Spirit will make you wise and let you understand
what it means to know God.”
The Bible is the
only book where you can talk to the author while reading it! You can ask “Now
what did you mean here?” How does this work?
Look at
Ephesians 1:18-19 “I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know
the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in
the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe.”
Enlighten - “The light came on!” The A ha
moment! YES! I got it!
I understand! That’s
Illumination! You’re spiritual eyes were opened!
May our
spiritual eyes always be open to be enlighten. Amen?
