The Work of the Spirit


     The Holy Spirit intercedes with us and God. He opens the Word of God to us. He teaches us all things. He prays with us and He prays for us.

“But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you.” John 14:26

     Look at these wonderful verses. The Holy Spirit is with us as we pray, understanding not only our deepest need, but how our needs can be met according to God’s will!

In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with wordless groans. And He who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God. Romans 8:26-27

     Remember these words when you do not know how to pray or what to pray. The Spirit intercedes in our weakness. He searches our heart. He will be our Advocate. How reassuring to know that the Holy Spirit indwells us. Rely on Him.

Father,

We thank You for sending us the Holy Spirit to intercede for us with wordless groans, the One who understands us more deeply than we know ourselves and the One who breathes the very life of God into our lives. We thank You for the One who intercedes.

In Jesus name,

Amen
