But the Helper, the Holy Spirit,
whom the Father will send in My name,
He will teach you all things,
and bring to your remembrance
all things that I said to you.
The Holy Spirit is a person. He is not like smoke, fog, a cloud or any other false idea that people have of Him. He is the Third Person of the Godhead. Use the pronoun "He" when you pray to Him, because He is a person. The Holy Spirit is a person who has the ability to think infinitely; therefore, He knows all about you. The Holy Spirit is a person who has the infinite capacities of emotion; therefore, He feels deeply for you. The Holy Spirit is a person with the divine power of will; therefore, He can choose to do wonderful things for you when you obey the commands of Scripture. What would you like for the Holy Spirit to do for you today?
Holy Spirit, I realize You know all about me, so forgive my shortcomings and errors. I feel Your love for me; help me love You in return. I want You to strengthen my will to live a godly life.
The Holy Spirit is the Third Person of the Trinity. He can be denied (2 Timothy 3:5), lied to (Acts 5:3), resisted (Genesis 6:3) and blasphemed (Matthew 12:31). Because He is a person, you can obey Him (Hebrews 3:7-11), desire Him (John 7:37-38) and follow Him (Galatians 5:16, 25). Call on Him today to help you glorify the Father.
Holy Spirit, I need Your help today. Come show me how to live in a more godly way. Come fill me with power to overcome temptation. Enter my life to make me holy like You, and make me spiritual like Your nature. Fill me today. Amen.
