Comfort and Power

Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth: You know how hard goodbyes can be. Imagine how Jesus’ disciples felt when they knew that He was getting ready to leave this earth. Their friend wasn’t just going to another place; He was going to the other side of eternity. They knew that people were going to hate them and reject them for their faith, and they thought they were going to have to face it all alone.

But Jesus told them, “It’s to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you.” Then He said, “I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, to be with you forever, even the Spirit of truth.”

Jesus was talking about the Holy Spirit. And when He came, the disciples were filled with comfort and power. The Holy Spirit is still with Jesus’ disciples. That’s why we don’t have to face any circumstance alone.

So why not ask the Holy Spirit to help you with whatever situation you may be facing today?
