There are so many scriptures found in God’s Word pertaining to His promises of the Holy Spirit and of the Holy Spirit’s working in our lives. Below are just a few that describe what the Holy Spirit means to us as Christians as we continue to walk in faith in our daily walk with Him.

John 14:26: “But the Counselor, 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.” Jesus promised His disciples that He would send a comforter to help them in their continuing ministry after He ascended into Heaven and that promise was definitely fulfilled.”

I Corinthians 2:13: “This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words.” Sometimes we do not know what or how to speak but because of the wisdom of the Holy Spirit in our lives, He will speak the truth through us.

Galatians 5:22-23: “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law.” The Holy Spirit helps us to grow in all of the virtues as described here in Galatians.

I Corinthians 6:19-20: “Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore, honor God with your body.” This passage clearly states that our bodies are the temples of the Holy Spirit which we have received from God and that we are to honor God with our bodies. Let us examine ourselves and what we do with the body that God has entrusted us with.

Luke 11:13: “If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!” Our Father is faithful and wants to give us good things. We just have to ask Him.

Ezekiel 36:26-27: “I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put my Spirit in you and move you to follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws.” When we follow God, He promises to “create in us a clean heart” and “to renew a right spirit within us” so that we willingly follow His teachings.

May you be blessed as you read the scriptures and take to heart all that the Holy Spirit can and will do in your heart and lives today.

Blessings,
