Life With The Holy Spirit

"And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Comforter (Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener, and Standby), that He may remain with you forever."
John 14:16 AMP

We used to sing that the Spirit of the Lord in our hearts is something more than gold! The truth is that nothing on earth can be compared to having the Holy Spirit within us; there's nothing and no one more precious, more costly and more beautiful!

People often wonder what it would be like for Jesus to be on earth physically, we often wish we were alive in His day; but that's not necessary, because the Holy Spirit is here, not only with us, but in us, and He's just like Jesus! Permit me to say, that Jesus was "nothing" without the Holy Spirit! Until the Spirit of God descended upon Him He did nothing on His own. John 3:34 says that God did not give Him the Spirit by measure.

If Jesus needed the Holy Spirit, then we need Him much more! The good news is that He has already been given, all we have to do is to receive Him. And after receiving Him, we must learn to fellowship with Him intimately. Look at what He is: a Comforter, Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener, and Standby! Life with the Holy Spirit is heaven on earth! Hallelujah!
