*John 16:13

Devo Fuel: {Teacher and Guide}

"When He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth." (John 16:13)

The moment you receive Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord, the Holy Spirit takes up residence in your heart. Right now He lives within you! The Bible says, "If anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he in not His" (Rom. 8:9)

The Holy Spirit helps us in lifes struggles, and we must never forget that. But the Holy Spirit also plays two other important roles we must not overlook.
  1. He convicts us of sin. The Bible says, "He will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and judgment: (John 16:8). While this verse focuses on His convicting power among unbelievers, the Holy Spirit also convicts believers when we sin.
  2. As a Teacher the Bible says, "He will guide you into all truth." Just as surely as the Holy Spirit inspired the writers of the Bible, so He will instruct us as we meditate on God's Word.
Are you a willing student of the Holy Spirit?
