What is the mission of The Holy Spirit?
It is to give us a revelation of Jesus Christ and to make The Word of GOD Life unto us as it was when spoken by The Son, as new, as fresh, as effective as if The Lord Himself was speaking. We have within our hands, within our hearts, within our minds, this blessed reservoir of promises that is able to do so many marvelous things.
Luke recorded by The Holy Spirit in Acts chapter 10:
38 “Jesus of Nazareth was anointed by God with the Holy Spirit and with great power. He did wonderful things for others and Divinely healed all who were under the tyranny of the devil, for God had anointed Him.
Many have been suffering because they have had a limited revelation of Jesus, of the fullness of Life there is in Him.
Jesus spoke to us in John chapter 14:
6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
12 “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.
13 And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14 If you ask anything in My Name, I will do it.
Most Christians will never move beyond spiritual mediocrity. Most believers will never experience the fullness of what GOD has made available through the Baptism of The Holy Spirit. Why? Because they are content to possess THE SPIRIT without being possessed by THE SPIRIT.
They want just enough of GOD to feel saved, but not enough of GOD to be dangerous to the enemy. They want just enough anointing to be comfortable, but not enough to be uncomfortable.
They want the benefits of The Kingdom without the burden of The Kingdom.
GOD is looking for men and women who will say, “Take all of me, possess me completely, bind me in YOUR SPIRIT, lead me where YOU want me to go, use me however YOU want to use me.” HE is looking for people who will lose their lives to find them, people who will die to self so that Christ can live through them.
The moment you stop seeking fresh encounters with GOD, the moment you stop pursuing deeper levels of surrender, the moment you settle for yesterday’s anointing, you have lost the vision.
Without the vision, you will go back to being an ordinary Christian living an ordinary life, with ordinary results… but GOD is calling you to something extraordinary. HE is calling you to be possessed by THE SPIRIT, HE is calling you to be bound in THE SPIRIT. HE is calling you to be driven, led, and controlled by THE HOLY SPIRIT until people look at your life and say, “That is not natural, that is supernatural, that is GOD!”
Let us pray the prayer Paul recorded by The Holy Spirit in Ephesians chapter 1:
17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to us the Spirit of Wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him,
18 the eyes of our understanding being enlightened; that we may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, 19 and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power
Amen!
