THE SPIRIT GLORIFIES THE SON

KEY SCRIPTURE: John 16:14 KJV “He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine and shall shew it unto you.”

We continue with the work of the Holy Spirit in us. Our key scripture says the Spirit comes to glorify Jesus. The Spirit does not just help us to glorify the master but joins us. Just as He joins with us to fight various challenges. In actual fact, He works through us to achieve this. Why did He not say, the Spirit has come to glorify the Father? This is so because Jesus is the current revelation of God to save all mankind. Acts 4:12 KJV” Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” From the days of the patriarchs and in Moses times God revealed Himself by a number of names. In these moments of grace, Jehovah or YHWH has revealed Himself as the Saviour of men.

The next work of the Spirit is to show the things that are for the Lord Jesus to us. The Lord did not say He will tell us, but He will show those supernatural things to us. This means a higher level of knowledge. Jesus said to the woman at the well, in John 4:22 KJV Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.” As the Lord said to the woman, many worship God, yet they do not know Him. From the Lord’s own lips, He wants us to see or know the deep things of the Spirit that seem to be hidden from us.

What are some of the things that belong to Jesus that the Spirit would show to the people of God?

Deep insight into the scriptures is one of the things that the Spirit will bring to us.

Understanding the dynamics of ministering to the sick, oppressed, and those who may need help.

There are certain decisions concerning ourselves, our church, and even the nation in which you are, that the Lord would want His people to know. Remember, the Lord had to tell Abraham, what He had planned for Sodom and Gomorrah.

Come to know and manifest the fullness of Jesus Christ. Eph 4:13 KJV Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:

Unfortunately, many children of God are blind to a lot of issues of the Spirit. Why is this so? The following are some of the reasons.

1. Lack of fellowship with the Spirit, in moments of prayer, and the study of God’s word.

2. A lack of desire for the things of the Spirit.

3. Worldliness. You can’t be worldly and receive anything of the Spirit.

4 Those who say whatever comes to their minds cannot have mysteries of the Spirit

THOUGHT: JESUS WANTS YOU HAVE WHATEVER HE IS, COOPERATE WITH THE SPIRIT
