The Holy Spirit’s Home

Everyday His Home in Us

Life is hard.  The earth experience is hard.  It is not our home.  Hard stuff for us all is stuff like forgiving those who never apologize or a health report that is terminal. Yet we can live free because the moment we receive Christ we are filled with the Holy Spirit with the potential to live a life of victory over fear, and struggles like forgiving others. This potential is released by faith as we surrender control of over our lives.  Look at 2 Timothy 1:14….the Holy Spirit makes His home in us and will lead by peace and wisdom as He speaks to our hearts. 

In the Old Testament (in Ezekiel), God’s promised the day would come when He would give people a new heart and put His Sprit within them.  Under the old covenant, the Holy Spirit only came upon people for special purposes, but He did not live inside them as He does when we know Him personally.  Amazing. I’m in for His control in my life, are you…everyday?
