The Holy Spirit Helps
Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. (Romans 8:26)
If we want to be effective for the Kingdom of God, we need the help of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit power that raised Jesus from the dead is the very same power we have available to us as His followers. As we strive to be a light for Christ while we are here on earth, the Holy Spirit can help us in several ways:
1. The Holy Spirit Helps Us Align with God’s Word.
When we line up with what God is doing, He will allow each of us to become a partner with Him, to lift Christ up and to testify about Jesus. We need to learn how to align with His Word. We need to make sure our beliefs and our behaviors, what we do and what we believe, line up with the Word of God. The Holy Spirit has work to do in this world.
The Holy Spirit brings awareness and conviction. He tells us what is right and what is wrong. Sin is sin. The greatest sin is choosing not to believe in Jesus, and not to line up with where He is going. You need to understand and embrace that. What does that really mean for us? It means our beliefs and behaviors must line up with the Word of God.
2. The Holy Spirit Helps Us To Be Loyal to Christ.
When you do what God says to do with your money, life, and relationships, nothing is more powerful in your life as a believer. We need to be consistent in our commitment to the Kingdom of God; totally committed with our time, talents and all of our resources. Many people try to justify what they are doing with their money, their life, and their relationships. Being loyal to Christ should be our ultimate goal.
3. The Holy Spirit Helps Us Take a Stand for Christ.
We need to be vocal about our beliefs and take a strong stand for Christ. He has not called us to be socially and culturally acceptable; instead, He has called us to be culturally and socially relevant to speaking the truth about Jesus. If you are truly committed to Christ, you will stand for Him and align your life with Him, above all things. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, there will be power in your life; and you will become salt and light for our culture.
