Our Secret Hero!
"Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses.
For we do not know what we should pray for as
we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession
for
us with groanings which cannot be uttered."
Romans 8: 26
Although we delight in helping others out of
our strength, it takes a giant swallow of our
pride to accept help and avoid feelings of
brokenness and dependence.
We would rather struggle for months on end
before admitting we need help. This tendency
stunts our growth because it rejects the
help
and power God has provided.
The Holy Spirit is the invisible hero dwelling
in us. God knows our
weakness and provides
Holy Spirit to guide, strengthen, and sustain
us. The Spirit comes to our rescue time and
again.
We are loved, and our weakness is never
mocked. When God calls us, we can
rest
assured that the Holy Spirit will equip us
through His insight and power.
The evidence is clear in both
the life of Christ and the lives
of His followers.
"The first thing that accounts for God’s using
D. L. Moody so mightily was that he was a
fully surrendered man. Every ounce of
that
two-hundred-and-eighty-pound body of his
belonged to God; everything he was and
everything he had, belonged wholly to God."
R. A. Torrey
