JOYCE MEYER DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR JUNE 29, 2022 (IT’S BETTER THESE WAY)
TOPIC : IT’S BETTER THESE WAY
Today’s Scripture: However, I am telling you nothing but the truth when I say it is profitable (good, expedient, advantageous) for you that I go away. Because if I do not go away, the Comforter..will not come to you.but if I go away, I will send Him to you.
– John 16:7 (AMPC)
MESSAGE
The presence of the Holy Spirit in our lives
is wonderful beyond what we can imagine.
He is our Comforter and that means He will
help and comfort us anytime we are hurt
as we journey through life. I like to think of
the Holy Spirit being as near to me as my
breath.
The Holy Spirit leads and guides us into the
plan of God for our lives. Learning to follow
His leadership is definitely a journey. We are
accustomed to living by our own thoughts,
feelings, and desires, but as Christians we
need to learn to be led by the Holy Spirit.
Jesus came in the body of a man and
understands all that we go through in life.
It gives me great comfort to remember that
Jesus understands me! He is patient and will continue working with us as long as we
are willing to continue learning.
Why could Jesus say that it would be
better if He went away and sent the Holy
Spirit? What could possibly be better than
having Jesus in person on the earth? Jesus
Could only be one place at a time, but the
Holy Spirit can be everywhere, working
in everyone all at the same time.
It is amazing! He never leaves us, not even for one moment. He knows everything about us and is working to heal all that is broken or wounded in us, and to put everything in its proper working order.
Every day we get better and better in every way through the awesome power and wisdom of the Holy Spirit.
Prayer Starter: Lord, I rejoice knowing
that Your way is the best way, and that you
are with me at all times, working in me
and through me until everything is good
Working order.
