Seek First

“But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” Matthew 6:33

When we allow the Lord Jesus to reign in us, He has the freedom to guide our lives according to His will. Therefore all the areas of our lives are blessed in a very natural way.

Best Father

“If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!” Luke 11:13

Our Heavenly Father has given us His Best: His son Jesus Christ. He, fulfilling His redemptive work on the cross, left for us the Holy Spirit as His substitute to guide, inspire, teach, remind us of His son’s teachings, comfort, strengthen and lead His children to the Promise Land.

Whoever is wise…

"For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God." Romans 8:14

To be filled with the Holy Spirit is not an option, a choice or a good idea. It's a matter of eternal life or death. Whoever is wise will invest all his strength, all his heart, all his understanding, all he is, all his life on this conquest.

Thirsty

"O God, You are my God; early will I seek You; my soul thirsts for You; my flesh longs for You in a dry and thirsty land where there is no water." Psalm 63:1

Life becomes precious and meaningful when we know and experience God's forgiveness. From then on, it's impossible to stay away from His counsel and presence.

Action and Reaction

"Offer to God thanksgiving, and pay your vows to the Most High. Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me." Psalm 50.14,15

The answers from God follow Newton's third law (physics). To every action there is a reaction. That is to say that there is no action without reaction.

Whenever there is a manifestation of faith in the Living God, there is answer. God knows all the needs of the human being, but to meet them, He needs to see your dependence on Him. This is done through faith materialized.

As you can see, faith must be used with intelligence.

My Strength

“The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; My God, my strength, in whom I will trust; My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.” Psalm 18:2

I received God’s armor when I allowed the Holy Spirit to possess me. That’s why, just like David, I can enjoy this certainty given by my Lord.

My Witnesses

“But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” Acts 1.8

Receiving the Holy Spirit HAS NOTHING TO DO with the feelings of the heart. So much so that, upon receiving Him, we become WITNESSES OF THE RESSURECTION of His Son Jesus Christ. Our behavior before the world speaks louder than words. However, when we do speak, we pass SPIRIT AND LIFE, just like our Lord Jesus did.
