Day 4 - Holy Spirit
You may be a fan of an ordered life, a fan of shows and Instagram reels showing everything in its place as you take a tour of a manicured house or garden. Manicured lives feel safe. Predictable. But they lack something... Adventure. Risk. Excitement.
In our spiritual lives, it can be easy to shy away from the person of the Holy Spirit because we can’t predict where He will lead us. Even as the wind can be a soft, friendly breeze one moment and a roaring hurricane in another, the wind of the Holy Spirit moves in unpredictable ways.
He is not tame.
He is not to be contained.
But, you know the beauty that results? The wild splendor of the whole earth knowing God’s name. When the Holy Spirit moves, we see artists released into glorious creativity (Exodus 31:2-5), the weak given miraculous justice-wreaking strength (Judges 16:28-30), and gifting released into the Church body to edify the Church.
The Spirit does what no man can predict, and yet He is the gift of God, our Helper to see His kingdom come.
As earnest as we can be in seeking Godly vision and submitting to God in prayer, we cannot do anything of worth or power without the Holy Spirit at work in us. Without inviting Him into all that we do, we are simply making clever-sounding plans. But, with Him, when we invite Him in to all that we do, when we give the Spirit room to shape and mould our vision, to show us where we still hold pride or sin in our hearts, to breathe the breath of Heaven into our prayers; we see heaven move in ways we cannot imagine. (Ephesians 3:20-21)
Look at the start of Acts 2. The disciples were waiting in an upper room, not preparing evangelistic tracts or dividing up the city into segments for them to walk along. They were simply waiting for the Holy Spirit. And when His power fell on them, the effect was immediate. The overflow of evangelistic releasing and gifts of tongues saw over 3000 people respond to the gospel message that day. When we partner with the untamable, when we give Him free rein in our lives, we will see greater, more extravagant miracles than we can possibly imagine. If we’re praying for one million – just imagine what the Spirit can do!
Are you ready for that?
Question:
- Is there a situation today that you could look to incorporate the Holy Spirit into? Would you consider praying with someone else for their personal needs?
Action:
- Invite the Holy Spirit to be wherever you are - your living room, train to work, etc. Take a moment to wait on Him, ask Him to be with you and to move through you for other people. Write down what you hear Him say or what He prompts you to do so that you can be intentional in following through on it.
