The Holy Spirit Is Your “Helper”
“The Helper…will teach you all things.” Jn 14:26 NKJV Jesus said, “The Helper, the Holy Spirit…will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.” So the Holy Spirit has these two functions: (1) He teaches you how to walk with God. (2) He reminds you to do it each day. As redeemed children of God, we constantly need to be taught how to walk with Him, and to be reminded of the blessings that await us when we do and the trouble we get into

I want to start with a prayer: Father, I'm so glad that you never gave up on us. And you love us. And you're working in our lives. And you have a plan for our lives that far exceeds perhaps even our wildest dreams. And that plan ultimately is good for your glory. So we pray now that as we open your Word, that you speak to us. Amen! One of those days, Jesus went to a mountainside to pray, and He spent the night praying to God. When morning came, He called His disciple to Him a
