Wise Quotes - HEALTHY SPIRITUAL GROWTH

Having the realisation that The Holy Spirit lives in you is one of the best things in a believers life. I was quiet surprise to find out that certain denomination of Christians does not know this truth about the Holy Spirit.

Let me break it down......though the bible doesn't clearly state about The Trinity, it however does make mention of all three entities being present at a particular point in time. These scriptures gives clarification:

Matthew 3:16-17 When He had been baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting upon Him. And suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."

                        **************

John 1:1-3 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.

                       **************

Genesis 1:26 - Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth."

For the sake of those who don't know about The Trinity it's:
God - The Father
God - The Son(Jesus Christ)
God - The Holy Spirit.

All are the same yet All have individual guidance in our lives. None is superior or least than the Other as some may think....They are simply put in that order because of the way They are introduced in the bible.

I hope this explanation is clear, If not kindly get in touch and let's discuss more......now to today's Wise Quote.

Being Spiritually Healthy requires being in tune with The  Spirit of God and heeding to His guidance.

                         **************

John 14:16-17 (AMP*) And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper (Comforter, Advocate, Intercessor—Counselor, Strengthener, Standby), to be with you forever— the Spirit of Truth, whom the world cannot receive [and take to its heart] because it does not see Him or know Him, but you know Him because He (the Holy Spirit) remains with you continually and will be in you.

The above scripture explains the role of The Holy Spirit. He lives in you to connect you to the Will of God. When one is born again, it is said that the old is gone and all things are new. This is where the Holy Spirit takes residence and start to make changes which brings about a spiritual growth. You won't grow spiritually if you close  yourself off from the  guidance of the Holy Spirit. As you become spiritually healthy, you'll become more emotionally healthy.

Why don't you take a moment and ask The Spirit  of God to show  you the purposes He has for your  life today. He's closer than you think. Remain blessed.
