Jesus is alive and well and He is praying for us, interceding for us, advocating for us. The Holy Spirit works in much the same way. The Spirit of Jesus lives inside of believers and helps us through our days. He will teach us through the Bible, He will guide us with words and actions throughout our days. As these precious verses tell us, He intercedes for us in prayer. Are you in doubt about how and what to pray? Let these words comfort you.
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 through 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
How comforting to know that when and if we are at a loss for words, the Spirit intercedes for us. Jesus knows our hearts and He will bring our needs to the Father in the best way that will work according to His will. Understand? No, I don’t either. All of this is beyond our human thoughts and understanding. But God knows it all, every hair on our heads, every word about to leave our lips, every need to be worked out for His glory. Let your soul rest today. Jesus and His Spirit are working it all out.
Thank You dear Lord Jesus for praying for us, for allowing Your very Spirit to live within us, for teaching us, even as we continue to falter. Pray for our faith to remain fixed on You.
Amen
