The Holy Spirit: Generous Spirit
Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and uphold me by Your generous spirit. Psalm 51:12
The Holy Spirit is the Generous Spirit of God. He gives freely to you, because it’s His nature to give. He gives eternal life, because Jesus died so that you can live forever. He gives abundantly, because Jesus promised, "I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly" (John 10:10). He gives richly, because the riches of Heaven are His to give to you. He gives generously, because you have need of the generous blessings from Heaven. What do you want Him to give you today?
Holy Spirit, I am human flesh. I have earthly needs, but I also have spiritual needs. I have multiple problems, so I need Your power and guidance. Give me your generous blessings today.
The Holy Spirit is the Generous Spirit. Some think that the Holy Spirit is a warehouse filled with blessings for Christians. But that is a wrong picture, because a warehouse can give out and become empty, but the Holy Spirit can never become empty or run out of blessings. Rather, the Holy Spirit is the Source of blessing. He is the Generous Spirit who gives eternally, because He is the unlimited Source of God’s supply. He is the Generous Spirit who gives Himself freely to all believers. What more do you need than the Holy Spirit?
Holy Spirit, I need You more than the blessings I seek. I need You more than anything else. Fill my life with Your presence. Be generous; give me everything I can contain. Amen.
The Holy Spirit is the blessing you need.
