Coffee Time with Jesus

  • The Holy Spirit: The Gift of the Holy Spirit
    Repent, and let every one of you
    be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ
    for the remission of sins,
    and you shall receive
    the gift of the Holy Spirit.
    Acts 2:38
     
    The Holy Spirit is a Gift to you. Jesus said, “I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper” (John 14:16). The Holy Spirit was given to enter into the heart of every Christian. Rather than giving you just forgiveness or eternal life or access into Heaven, the Father gave you a Person of the Godhead. The Gift is the Holy Spirit. When this Gift enters your heart, He brings the spiritual riches of Heaven into your life. You have the Gift; now unwrap the present and take Him out of the box. When you receive an earthly gift from a friend, you either try it on or see how it works. Do the same with your Gift of the Holy Spirit. Welcome Him to see how He works.
     
    Holy Spirit, I don’t seek spiritual things; I seek You. I don’t seek spiritual power or blessings. I need You in my life. I receive You as a free Gift.
     
    The Holy Spirit is the Helper whom Jesus promised (John 15:26). He helps the Father carry out His will on Earth. He helps Jesus by delivering eternal life to all who believe in Him. He is the Gift to help every believer. Will you open this Gift and try Him out?
     
    Holy Spirit, come into my heart and help me live for You. I don’t have spiritual power. So come, my Gift; I receive You freely. Amen.
     
    Go Deeper: Acts 2:38-42
     
    The Holy Spirit is the Father’s Gift to you.
