   The third role of the Holy Spirit is to give us the Spirit of wisdom. To understand the above-mentioned role, let us read the relevant scriptures pertaining to this role of the Holy Spirit. Ephesians 1:17 “…give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation…” 1 Corinthians 1:24 “…Christ…and the wisdom of God.” Ephesians 6:17“…the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.” What is wisdom? Wisdom is nothing but applying the written word into our day-to-day lives so that the living Word (Jesus) will manifest in our lives. In other words, the character of Jesus is to be seen in our lives. The Bible tells us that everything in this world is created by the wisdom of God. When we look at Genesis, Chapter One, it is clearly understood that everything is created by the spoken word of God. So, what is wisdom in this context? It is the spoken word of God. Thus, when we receive wisdom from the Lord, we can rule and reign in every situation of our lives with wisdom. The Bible g...

  The word, ‘Grace’ comes from the Greek root ‘Charis’ which means — ‘God in Christ’ (our representative) blesses humanity and makes them unlimited, unmerited, unending, mercy, gifts, health, wealth, acceptance, forgiveness, joy, etc. Let us study some more verses to fully grasp the meaning of grace. Romans 5:18–19 “Consequently, just as the result of on e  trespass was condemnation for all men, so also the result of one act of righteousness was justification that brings life for all men. For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous.” When we study the above scriptures, we come across two people. The first person being Adam, through whose disobedience the entire mankind was plunged in the hands of the devil and consequently into death and darkness, which is bad news! But the good news is the last Adam i.e., “Christ” whose obedience immersed and filled the entire huma...

  Romans 10:9 “That if you confess with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” The word ‘saved’ in Greek is ‘Sozo’ which means salvation and its other meanings are:  (a) forgiveness of sin,  (b) healing or health,  © peace,  (d) prosperity,  (e) eternal life and  (f) blessing.  So, the one word ‘Sozo’ not only means forgiveness of sins but it also includes healing, health, peace, prosperity, eternal life, and blessings. But when one talks of Salvation only as forgiveness of sins, then it is too shallow because it is just like a father who has a hundred crores in his bank account, and although the son is entitled for the entire amount but spends only a few lakhs for the rest of his life and struggles for list of the things. Here, it is not the father’s fault, rather it’s the ignorance on the part of the son to not fully utilize what the father has in store for him. Exactly in the...

  OMNISCIENT (All-Knowing): The Father is All-Knowing If we study the Bible we understand the Father’s characteristic as omniscient, i.e. All-Knowing. Does that mean that the Son and the Holy Spirit are not omniscient? Absolutely not! Applying the above analogy of joint account of three persons i.e. husband, wife, and the child, we understand just as the Father is omniscient, so are the Son and the Holy Spirit, as they are all one, that is, having a joint account as John 17:10 tells us, “All I (the Son) have is yours (the Father) , and all you (the Father) have is mine (the Son). And glory has come to me (the Son) through them (one account-being).” So whatever the Son has, the Holy Spirit has and the Father also has the same. This is a clear example of sharing one account of three people. So, every characteristic that the Father has also belongs to the Son and the Holy Spirit. As John 16:15 tells us, “All that belongs to the Father is mine (the Son). That is why I said the...

  Even long before the creation fell into sin and fell short of the glory of God — the Triune God had a plan to shape and make our lives in Christ. The Bible says in 1 Peter1:19–20 “but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect. He was chosen before the creation of the world, but was revealed in these last times for your sake.” Here we can understand one thing about our God, that He has a solution even before a problem appears. On the contrary, human being looks for the solution after being into the problem. Keeping this in mind let us study the word Jeremiah 18:1–4 “This is the word that came to Jeremiah from the LORD: “Go down to the potter’s house, and there I will give you my message.” So I went down to the potter’s house, and I saw him working at the wheel. But the pot he was shaping from the clay was marred in his hands; so the potter formed it into another pot, shaping it as seemed best to him.” Here, the potter is God the Father who is working at t...

 Self Control is one of the fruits of the Holy Spirit as Galatians 5:22 reveal us. Every believer must have the Spirit that produces self-control. King Solomon tells us in Proverbs 25:28, “Like a city whose walls are broken down is a man who lacks self-control.” A man who has self-control is like a city that is sealed, has protection and security under the power of the authority; whereas a man without self-control lacks not only protection and security but is vulnerable to outside danger. So, from where do we believers receive our model of being in self-control? We learn this from Jesus on the cross who did not lose His self-control before the self-esteemed and self-righteous Jews religious leaders. They hurled an insult at Him saying if He has the power to come down from the cross and then they would believe Him. Even when they challenged the power of Jesus, He did not succumb to their pressure because of His self-control. He was in total control of the situation, not giving up u...

THE ALL-POWERFUL GOD OMNIPOTENT (All-Powerful): The Son is All-Powerful The Son’s quality and characteristic is one of power and authority.  Matthew 28:18  states , “Then Jesus came to them and said , “ All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.”  The Son is Omnipotent. We read the same in  Daniel 7:13–14 “In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a son of man, coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached the Ancient of Days and was led into his presence. He was given authority, glory and sovereign power; all peoples, nations and men of every language worshiped him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not pass away, and his kingdom is one that will never be destroyed.” Does that mean that the Father and the Holy Spirit are not omnipotent? It is not like that. For more clarity now let us get back to our principle of ‘One account.’ (Everything that one has is owned by each and everyone (through one account) in God...

  Partake and Proclaim 1 Corinthians 11:26 also says, ‘You proclaim the Lord’s death.’ Now my question is to whom do we proclaim the Lord’s death? We don’t proclaim the Lord’s death to the world; we proclaim the Lord’s resurrection to the world. We declare Lord’s death to ourselves, to the parts of our body and say we are dead to sin because when a person is dead then that person can never sin. We all are dead to sin and alive to God in Christ. Partake Worthily! 1 Corinthians 11:27 “Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord.”1 Corinthians 11:28 “A man ought to examine himself before he eats of the bread and drinks of the cup.” When we partake of the table according to 1 Corinthians 11:27,28 then two words are of utmost importance which are ‘unworthy’ and ‘examine.’ The word ‘unworthy’ in Greek is ‘anaxious’ which also means ‘unsuitable’ or ‘not correspondi...

Isaiah 60:1 “Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD rises upon you.” The word ‘arise’ in Hebrew is ‘qum’ which means ‘to be ‘established’. Now the question arises, what is to be established? We are to be established in the glory, which is the very foundation of our life. So, we ought to not only to be established in the glory but also move in this glory which is ever increasing. In other words, we are supposed to move from one level of glory to another level of glory. Isaiah 60:2 “See, darkness covers the earth and thick darkness is over the peoples, but the LORD rises upon you and his glory appears over you.” The Lord rises upon you means we become the channel through which He begins to manifest Himself. That is why it is said in Ephesians 1:12–13 that we are the praise of His glory and His literal glory appears over us. Isaiah 60:3 “Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your dawn.” The verse explains the power, capability, and abi...

  God has given the ultimate fullness of life to every believer known as Zoe which is God kind of life. Let us first understand what ‘Zoe’ means. Although in the New Testament, it is translated as ‘life’ in English whereas, in the Greek language, there are two words for life, one is ‘bios’ and the other one is ‘Zoe’. 2 Timothy 2:4 says, “No one engaged in warfare entangles himself with the affairs of this life, that he may please him who enlisted him as a soldier.” This English word ‘life’ refers to the Greek word ‘bios’ which is the life of the physical body’ or ‘natural life’. John 1:4 says, “in him was life, and that life was the light of men.” Here, the Greek word ‘zoe’ refers to ‘uncreated’, ‘eternal life of God’, or ‘the divine life uniquely possessed by God.’ Even before the creation of the world, the perfect plan of God was to impart Zoe life i.e. God's kind of life to mankind. In Zoe life, there is no Sickness and no Death. To read more, refer to the Book “Living In Glory ...

  The Scripture clearly tells us in Matthew 6:12, 14–15 that when we forgive people God will also forgive our sins rather it adds that as we forgive, God will forgive us in the same measure. Where do we learn to forgive? We learn to forgive from the Triune God in action on the cross. When the Son of the Highest God, Himself prays to His Father for the people who crucified Him saying for they knew not what they were doing. So, when we follow the Triune God we can also forgive our debtors because His grace comes upon us to forgive.

  The Triune God is expressed in the image of oneness and so we ought to have unity in the church. As the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are one in unity, we can have unity in our relationships, and because of the way the Father relates to his Son in unity, we can also relate to one another in the same way. A person who divides churches or family had not understood the oneness of the Triune God. The unity is the foundation of the Triune God because the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are united and the same can be achieved in the body of Christ. Testimony: Sometime back I was supposed to preach in a church where the spirit of the division was at work. I received specific instructions from God to preach on the unity of the church. By the grace of God bestowed upon me to deliver the sermon on the subject, as a result, the church finally got united and blessed and filled with the glory of God.

  The first role of the Holy Spirit to testify, glorify and reveal Jesus Let us read some of the scriptures to understand this role of the Holy Spirit. John 15:26 “…he (Holy Spirit) will testify about me (Jesus).” John 16:14 “He (Holy Spirit) will bring glory to me (Jesus)…” Ephesians 1:17 “…may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation (i.e., about Jesus)…” Ephesians 3:4–5 “In reading this, then, you will be able to understand my insight into the mystery of Christ, which was not made known to men in other generations as it has now been revealed by the Spirit to God’s holy apostles and prophets.” The most important role of the Holy Spirit is to testify and glorify Jesus. Acts 2:4 says “All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit…” In Acts 2:14, “Then Peter stood up with the Eleven, raised his voice and addressed the crowd:…” and Acts 2:36, “Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ.” Now, if we carefully read ...
