June 2, 2020 Devotional – INTIMACY WITH GOD THROUGH THE HOLY SPIRIT with David Olatona
Main Text: John 14:1-18
Watchword
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all. 2 Corinthians 13:14
The characteristic of God is His love. The characteristic of the Lord Jesus is His grace, and the characteristic of the Holy Spirit is His fellowship. The work of the Holy Spirit is to bring the love of God and the grace of the Lord Jesus into you by the way of fellowship. (Romans 5:5).
The Holy Spirit conveys to you what God and the Lord Jesus have accomplished. The love of God is in the grace of the Lord Jesus, and the grace of the Lord Jesus is in the fellowship of the Holy Spirit. When we received the fellowship of the Holy Spirit we receive the grace of the Lord Jesus, and all those who have received the grace of the Lord Jesus have a taste of the love of God. (Ephesians 3:16-19)
To commune with the Holy Spirit is to get to know Him intimately. This type of relationship is important, because He is the administrator of the new covenant of grace under which we live. In this covenant, we need to believe in Jesus and His finished work; the Holy Spirit guides us and helps us to do that.
Confession
I have the Spirit of God in me and I connect to HIS Spirit which bears witness with my spirit.
Prayer
Let the eyes of my heart be enlightened to know how to fellowship with God through HIS Holy Spirit
