Matthew 3:11

 “I indeed baptize you with water… but He…shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost.”

Remember to read “My Utmost for His Highest” for Today

 

HE DOES EVERYTHING

 

I mused one day about the Lord, noting the struggles I was in.

Many were created by someone else and most were caused by sin.

 

I mused one day about the Lord, how He came to seek and to save.

I gladly received forgiveness from sin and eternal life He gave.

 

I mused one day about the Lord, then I entered that Holy Place.

“My Child” the Father encouraged me , “You forgot about my Grace.

 

My Grace is sufficient for all of this. Spiritual Power is abundant and free.

All of this bondage from someone else is not My planned Will for thee.

 

Put distance between yourself and this. Choose freedom from sin’s shame.

There is no need to explain or excuse. I offer freedom in My Name.

 

The Holy Ghost has come with My Power. The Holy Ghost is Divine.

Claim My Power available to you. Remember My Child, You are Mine.”

PONDER- IF we truly believe in the power of the Holy Ghost, why do we struggle in our own strength. List your struggles. Beside each, write the date that you truly committed it to the Lord. Note the peace that follows. The Holy Ghost wants to do everything for us. Let Him. Why wait?

 

Dear Lord, Thank you for the power and presence of the Holy Ghost. Forgive me for the times that I tried to do things in my own strength. Thank you for reminding me of Your awesome Power. In Jesus’ Name, AMEN.
