Spirit at work: Devotions for time of Grace part 1
God’s utterance
No one has ever seen the Holy Spirit, or any spirit for that matter. Spirits can see us; we can’t see them, unless they use their powers to assume human form. Much of the work of God the Holy Spirit is hidden from our eyes. But that doesn’t mean he’s been absent from the earth. On the contrary--the Spirit of the Lord has been carrying out his holy agenda throughout human history.
It is the Spirit’s grand mission to connect people with their Savior through Word and sacrament. Everything good in our lives ultimately comes from God’s Word, and the Spirit uses his prophets to convey the very utterances of God himself. King David, anointed of the Lord, was aware of being a channel for information from heaven: “These are the last words of David: ‘The oracle of David son of Jesse, the oracle of the man exalted by the Most High, the man anointed by the God of Jacob, Israel’s singer of songs: The Spirit of the LORD spoke through me; his word was on my tongue" (2 Samuel 23:1,2).
Without the Spirit’s utterance you would be completely on your own to try to find truth in the world’s swirl of competing philosophies. You would never know anything for sure. But when you read the Bible, you can have complete confidence in its power, its truth, and its applicability to your life, for you are experiencing the Holy Spirit’s information and power directly.
You can know.
Bible Scriptures: Prayer and petitions
1: Now these be the last words of David. David the son of Jesse said, and the man who was raised up on high, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet psalmist of Israel, said, 2: The Spirit of the Lord spake by me, and his word was in my tongue. 3: The God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spake to me, He that ruleth over men must be just, ruling in the fear of God. 4: And he shall be as the light of the morning, when the sun riseth, even a morning without clouds; as the tender grass springing out of the earth by clear shining after rain. 5: Although my house be not so with God; yet he hath made with me an everlasting covenant, ordered in all things, and sure: for this is all my salvation, and all my desire, although he make it not to grow. 6: But the sons of Belial shall be all of them as thorns thrust away, because they cannot be taken with hands: 7: But the man that shall touch them must be fenced with iron and the staff of a spear; and they shall be utterly burned with fire in the same place. 2 Samuel 23:1-7 KJV http://bible.com/1/2sa.23.1-7.KJV

Our Prayer and petition for the day is that Our Heavenly Father Jehovah would allow us to speak more with as well as every minute of the day with The Holy Ghost. We plead for Forgiveness of our Iniquities committed known and unknown. God also make those Sins repulsive to us that every time we commit Sin we would instantly seek Holy Correction. Grace is available but only through Jesus. Holy Ghost Loose upon us Longsuffering, Patience, Temperance with Joyfulness. It is in the name above all names of Jesus Christ we ask with Authority and by the power of The Holy Spirit we shall receive such blessings.
