OUR LORD WHO TEACHES US
All this I have spoken while still with you. But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. - John 14 verse 25 - 26.
This remarkable verse reveals a dynamic that gives us an advantage as believers as we live in the midst of the enemies of God.
Jesus revealed that the Holy Spirit would be sent to us in His name and He, the Holy Spirit, would do two things:
a) He would teach us all things which means He would bring to us information and understanding of things we did not have prior knowledge of.
b) He would remind us of (or bring to mind) things we had already been taught but would normally have trouble recalling.
With this access to knowledge, the Lord enables us to function in His Kingdom as able ministers who are equipped with spiritual knowledge and understanding. We can then operate with discernment and effectiveness in the Kingdom of God.
Bless the Lord our God who teaches us.
Amen.
