"But when the Helper comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify of Me. John 15:26
He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you. John 16:14
Taking a one day break from Acts to recap a point from the message in last night’s worship service…
The Upper Room discourse contains a great deal of instruction about the Holy Spirit. One thing in particular about the Holy Spirit that has struck me while going through this section this time is that the Holy Spirit’s favorite subject is Jesus. The Holy Spirit doesn’t talk about or glorify Himself (though He is every bit as much God as is the Father and the Son!). The Holy Spirit talks about and glorifies Jesus. Why? Because Jesus is our Savior and Lord!
Something else that struck me while going through these chapters is the thought that since the Holy Spirit’s favorite subject is Jesus, and since the Holy Spirit is in us, shouldn’t our favorite topic also be Jesus? Shouldn’t we love to talk about and glorify Jesus?
Oh Lord, as we are filled with the Holy Spirit, may we be energized by Him to love to talk about and glorify our beautiful Savior!
