THE HOLY SPIRIT’S WORK IN THE WORLD

KEY SCRIPTURE: John 16:8 KJV “And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:”

As much as the Holy Spirit has come to stand by the Christian and work alongside what the church does, the main target and ultimate focus of His work among the church is to save the world and make men ready for heaven. Dear child of God, do not get so much concerned about yourself and the work of the Holy Spirit in you but understand that He has come to work through you to win the world. Acts 1:8 KJV” But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.”

Our key scripture tells us what the Holy Spirit does in the lives of men. This normally happens when Christians play their role of going into the world and sharing the word with it. It is the word in the hearts of men that gives the Holy Spirit tools to work with. Our key scripture tells us what the Spirit does. John 16:8 KJV” And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:”

The Holy Spirit reproves the world of sin. The word reprove means to convict. The secular world tries to convince men that there is nothing called sin. It teaches one must fully express himself or herself, in any way that he or she pleases, so long as he does not injure his neighbour. This concept is what is breeding all kinds of illicit sexual practices and these transgender persuasions that are taking over. In spite of all these teachings when the word of God is preached the Holy Spirit convicts men of sin. There are instances that the prayers of certain servants of God have stirred up strong convictions of sin in the heart of men.

The scripture said men get convicted because they did not believe in Jesus. Believing in Jesus is the only means that brings forgiveness to sin.

THOUGHT: MEN WILL ALWAYS BE CONVICTED WHEN THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS THE WORD IN MEN’S HEART
