Holy Spirit Helps As You Build

When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on his own but will tell you what he has heard. He will tell you about the future. John 16:13 (NLT)

Yesterday we talked about how we don’t have a miracle problem, but a wisdom problem.

As an example, let’s say you’re believing God for a promotion in your career. You have faith, but you don’t work as hard as other employees or grow in your skill. When the opportunity comes up, you may not get the position because you didn’t prepare for the promotion.

The truth is, too many Christians are waiting around for God to move. They’ve become complacent. Yet when I talk to believers who are succeeding and enjoying life, I usually find someone who is building.

Building is the best way to fight the good fight of faith. This fight isn’t about fighting the devil or getting a reluctant God to bless you. It’s about standing up with a fight in you to build your marriage, home, and every area of life.

The word Jesus used to describe Holy Spirit was helper. If He’s our helper, that means we need to take the initiative. As you build your life on God’s Word, Holy Spirit as your helper is going to lead you into all truth. In every new season, He’s not surprised by what comes your way. He’ll show you truth about building your marriage, raising kids and handling finances. He’s ready with amazing wisdom and understanding for you! All you have to do is ask Him.
