1 Chronicles 22 & 23, 1 Corinthians 2, Psalm 118: 17-29
1 Corinthians 2: 12-13 (ESV)
“Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the
Spirit who is from God, that we might understand the things freely given us by
God. And we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the
Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths to those who are spiritual.”
Verses 12 through 13 from 1 Corinthians 2 shows Paul letting
the believers in the Church of Corinth know that believers in Christ have
received the Holy Spirit who is from God. The Holy Spirit helps us to
understand the word of God and things given us to freely by God. The Holy
Spirit also helps us to interpret spiritual truths to other believers in
Christ.
The pastor of my church gave a sermon last year and told us we
need to rely on the Holy Spirit to help us in all things, since Christ gave us
the Holy Spirit as a Helper. I’ve been to rely more on the Holy Spirit since that
sermon, and I can testify that the Holy Spirit has helped me to understand my Bible
readings more and how to apply Bible teachings to my life. The Holy Spirit has also
helped me understand more fully how God works in my life, and what God is
trying to teach me in the trials of my life. The Holy Spirit is there to help believers
in Christ, so call upon this helper to help you in your spiritual journey and
walk with Christ.
