The Holy Spirit Revealed, Part Three

Religion

The disciples ask Jesus how do we work the works of God.
John 6:28-29 “Then said they unto Him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God”? Jesus answered and said unto them, “this is the work of God, that ye believe on Him whom He hath sent”. Jesus is saying that HE is the work of God.This is the perfect work of God that you believe on His precious Son, Christ Jesus. The Father’s finished work.
Father God’s great work is to reveal His son to you that you might believe, and that you might take part in turning mankind from darkness to light, and from the God of this world, the devil, to his Son and The Kingdom of God.
1Jn 5:19 “We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies in wickedness”. Are your loved ones in the kingdom yet?
Now we know why Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth and the life, no one comes to the Father but by Me.” Jesus is the Father’s only way back to Him!

John 6:38-39 “For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of Him that sent me”.
And this is the Father’s will which hath sent me, that of all which He hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.” That “nothing” includes you, if you are the Father’s child. Oh! What a security blanket.
The Father’s work is that Jesus should save you and keep you, and protect you.
Just as Jesus was perfectly obedient to do what-so-ever was in the Fathers heart: the Father’s will, His works and His ways; what-so-ever was in the Fathers heart, He did. The heart of the Father was brought forth through the life and works and words of Jesus. He was empowered by the Holy Spirit from the Father.
John 17:4 “I have glorified You on the earth. I have finished the work that You gave Me to do.”
We must, as Christians, be empowered by the Spirit of the Father, who is God the Holy Ghost who is down here for us. We cannot work all the works of God without the Holy Spirit of God working through our lives on this earth, no more than Jesus could.
Matt 28:18, “Jesus said, All power in heaven and earth has been given unto Me”. He then turned around and gave the power to us by His Holy Spirit. Think about this. All the work of God on earth is in the hands of you, the Christian.
Luke 11:13, Jesus said.”How much more will the Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask”. That would tell me that Jesus thinks we need more. Are you asking for more? Have you gotten more since you were saved?
Jesus said that His word is spirit and it is life, however, the Holy Spirit puts the fire and the power into it.
For our own benefit, we need to know how to ask the Holy Spirit to do the things for us that Jesus said he would do, and that is exactly what the Holy Spirit wants to do for you.
We must understand how the Holy Spirit works, in order to do whatever it takes to really know Him well enough to receive guidance from Him.
John 16 :13-15 “Howbeit when He, the Spirit of truth, is come, He will guide you into all truth: for He shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever He shall hear, that shall He speak: and He will show you things to come.
“He shall glorify Me for He shall receive of mine, and shall show it unto you.”
“All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that He shall take of mine, and shall show it unto you”.
In those three verses, Jesus said nine times what He,the spirit, will do for you. We must come to understand that Heis God, the Holy Spirit, down here for you and in you, and not just any spirit.
HE IS NOT THE FATHER. HE IS NOT JESUS, but He came down from the Father and down-loads from Him, what is coming your way. For sure, He is The Revealer of all that the Father and Jesus have for you. For prayer or help [email protected]
