JUNE 29 – SPIRIT

06/29               1 John 4:13-17 

And God has given us his Spirit as proof that we live in him and he in us. 14Furthermore, we have seen with our own eyes and now testify that the Father sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. 15All who declare that Jesus is the Son of God have God living in them, and they live in God. 16 We know how much God loves us, and we have put our trust in his love. God is love, and all who live in love live in God, and God lives in them.  17 And as we live in God, our love grows more perfect. So we will not be afraid on the day of judgment, but we can face him with confidence because we live like Jesus here in this world. 

SPIRIT

The Spirit of God (the Holy Spirit) indwells us as God’s children.  He will guide us if we will bend the knee to God.  We declare with our mouth our allegiance to the Lord and with our belief we permit the Holy Spirit to guide us when we walk in the right way.  Our love grows under the direction of the Holy Spirit.  We become more like Jesus day by day.
