Well we examined several truths of the Holy Spirit. Now we are going to move to some promises of the Holy Spirit that will prove to you that Holy Spirit is a part of your life or not! The key here is do you have the faith to use the Holy Spirit and His promises.
When reading these please take your time and think. Ask your self if each one is being used to it's full capacity in your life. If you realize it is not, spend some time in prayer asking God to help you in this area of your life!
The first promise we are going to look at is this: The Spirit helps us speak when we are in precarious situations and need to bear witness.
Mark 13:11
11 But when they arrest you and deliver you up, do not worry beforehand, or premeditate what you will speak. But whatever is given you in that hour, speak that; for it is not you who speak, but the Holy Spirit.
Luke 12:12
12 For the Holy Spirit will teach you in that very hour what you ought to say.”
These verses are awesome. I can honestly say I have seen these work in my life. There have been several times when I have been witnessing to someone and the Holy Spirit has pulled out scripture and when I have been stuck not knowing what to say....BAM out of nowhere the words come up! Has that ever happened to you? The problem with some of us and I am guilty of this myself from time to time is we are too scared to even try to witness! Guess what??? God's Word is telling us we have nothing to fear because the Holy Spirit will help us! They only way you are going to find out though is to try it and see!
Go back and read the two verses again. Grab onto those promises. Try them out and see how good the Holy Spirit is! Also don't miss in the Mark verse that even if we ever face persecution for our faith do not be afraid for the Holy Spirit will Speak for us...now think on that for a while!!!
Have a great week!
