THE HOLY SPIRIT
It’s not where I worship that counts. It’s not where I like, love, honour, respect and obey God that counts, but how well I worship, how well I like, love, honour, respect and obey God. My worship, my liking, my love, my honour, my respect and my obedience to and for God is spiritual and real and genuine. God is Spirit, God is a Spiritual Being and I have his help to worship, to like, love, honour, respect and obey Him, as I should. The Father wants this kind of worship, this kind of liking, love, honour, respect and obedience from me.
John 4:21-24
I ask for the Holy Spirit and our Heavenly Father gives Him to me.
Luke 11:13
I like and love Jesus. I obey Jesus and I do as directed by Jesus. Jesus asked the Father and He gave me another Comforter, the Advocate, Lawyer, Intercessor, Counsellor, Protector, Helper, Strengthener and Supporter and He will never leave me. He is the Holy Spirit, the Spirit who leads into all truth, fact and reality. He lives with me now and is in me. Jesus has come to me. I obey Jesus and I do as directed by Jesus and I like and love Jesus. Because I like and love Jesus, Jesus’ Father likes and loves me and Jesus likes and loves me and reveals and discloses Himself to me.
John 14:15-21
Jesus only reveals and discloses Himself to those people who like and love Him, obey Him and do as He directs. The Father likes and loves me too and the Father and Jesus have come to me and live and continue in being with me. Anyone who doesn’t obey Jesus, who doesn’t do as Jesus directs, doesn’t like and love Jesus.
John 14:23-24
The Father sends the Comforter to represent Jesus. By the Comforter, Jesus means the Holy Spirit. He teaches me much, as well as reminding me of everything Jesus Himself has told us.
John 14:26
Jesus has sent me the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, the source of all truth, fact and reality. He has come to me from the Father and He tells me all about Jesus.
John 15:26
The Holy Spirit, who is truth, fact and reality, comes and guides me into all truth, fact and reality. He doesn’t present his own ideas, but passes onto me what he has heard. He tells me about the future. He praises and applauds Jesus and brings Jesus great honour, by showing me Jesus’ glory and splendour. All the Father’s glory and splendour belong to Jesus. This is what Jesus meant when He said that the Holy Spirit would show me His glory and splendour.
John 16:13-15
Jesus has told me all about the Father. I know that everything Jesus has is a gift from the Father. Jesus has passed onto me the commands; instructions and directions the Father gave Him. I accepted them and know of a certainty that Jesus came down to earth from the Father and I believe that the Father sent Jesus.
John 17:6-8
The Father has already tended me by pruning me back for greater strength and usefulness by means of the commands, instructions and directions Jesus gave me. I take care to live and continue in being in Jesus and to let Jesus live and continue in being in me. A branch can’t produce fruit when severed from the vine. I can’t be fruitful apart from Jesus.
John 15:3-4
I live and continue in being in Jesus and Jesus lives and continues in being in me and I shall produce a large crop of fruit. For apart from Jesus, I can’t do a thing.
John 15:5
Holy Father, as Jesus prayed, keep us in your own care, all those people you gave to Jesus, so that we will be united, just as you are with Jesus, with no one, none missing.
John 17:11
Jesus gives me a gift that is peace of mind and heart, peace, harmony and friendship in the centre of my feelings, impulses, inclinations, affections and desires. The peace isn’t fragile like the peace the world gives. I am not troubled or afraid.
John 14:27
I have peace of heart and mind. Here on earth I will have many trials and sorrows; but I take courage, for Jesus has overcome the world. Jesus has overcome and overpowered the present evil and ungodly disorder and disarrangement of things. Jesus has deprived and dispossessed it of its power to harm. Jesus has conquered it for us.
John 16:33
