In John 16:13(NLT), Jesus Christ said, “When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on his own but will tell you what he has heard. He will tell you about the future.” God desires to have a close and intimate relationship with us. Sometimes, we think of Him as being very far away, but this isn’t the case at all. God wanted to be so close to us that He gave us the gift of His Spirit. This is the Holy Spirit, and he lives inside us.
The indwelling Holy Spirit helps us to live a successful life as a believer and follower of the Lord Jesus Christ. Throughout the years, we have grown very dependent on others in leadership positions, so much so that many of us have stop leaning on God and instead lean on the person. This is not what God wants. He wants us to learn about Him and lean on Him for everything. No one should come between us and Him. Trusting in the Lord with our whole hearts is how our relationship with Him deepens and grows.
Jesus Christ instructed us in Matthew 6:31-33(NLT), “31 So don’t worry about these things, saying, ‘What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?’ 32 These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers, but your heavenly Father already knows all your needs. 33 Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.” We must seek God first, and through His Holy Spirit, He will guide and teach us so that our lives are pleasing to Him and fulfilling to us as well. It must be our greatest ambition to learn to walk and live with Holy Spirit power.
