Experiencing R.E.S.T. in the Holy Spirit, is a beautiful thing, and this Rock-solid Eternal Spirituality Today is precisely what God wants for each of us. As our scripture in John 16:13 reveals, the Holy Spirit gives us guidance. Wow! this is really good news because we aren’t wandering aimlessly around Planet Earth all alone.
IT’S IN ALL TRUTH
The Holy Spirit’s guidance isn’t limited to just one bit of truth, but it is in ALL truth, which only God can provide. Think about it this way: What is it that you do to live a life of purpose? Are you an Auto Mechanic? Well, during times when you have one of those difficult issues to figure out, seek the Spirit’s help. You might be very surpised how easily this gets worked out. Maybe you are the one who is relied on to make sure logistics are figured out for your organization. You have gifts, and you have talents. I submit you are far better when the Holy Spirit provides you in all your guidance. What if you are a missionary? You are in a specific country and a culture foreign to you own. You have done all you can to be sensitive to the culture, but you can be far better if you allow the Holy Spirit to guide you. What if you are a Counselor? You have all your degrees, board certifications, and you have a whole lot of experience. Guess what? God, in Jesus name, through The Holy Spirit can guide you with wisdom that you cannot get from a book or a technique. Name your talent, gift, or job, and this still applies to you in helping you acheive an exellent outccome for God’s glory.
A Little Bit of My Own Story:
As a Mental Health Chaplain, God enabled me to develop “Soul Talk.” This was used in a small group setting, from a Christ Follower’s perspective, with people from multiple faith groups, and I could use it one on one as well. This was given me by the Holy Spirit, and scores of lives were changed through information based on the ancient wisdom of the Bible as revealed by the Holy Spirit.
Wonder Filled Eternal Revelation:
It doesn’t matter who we are or what we do. if we experience God’s R.E.S.T., we will not operate in half truths or questionable truth, nor be limited to our own finiteness, but will excell as God’s Divine wisdom is imparted; therefore, the Heavenly guidance is trustworthy. And the source is wonder filled: What the Holy Spirit shares comes directly from what He hears, from The Father, through Jesus, The Son of God, as He imparts eternal revelations to us and through us.
Our Challenge
So, wherever we are or whoever we are, let us allow God’s Holy Spirit, who initially came at Pentecost, to provide us with our own personal Pentecost! Abide in Jesus, and allow the Heavenly Father do His pruning in our lives, (John 15:1-17) to make us more fruitful, and gifted persons, whom God takes by the hand to guide us daily into God’s Supernatural R.E.S.T.
