The indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit is one of the greatest gifts you could ever have as a Christian. This truth is even more profound when we recognize that whatever we do for the Lord is worthless except it’s done through the Holy Spirit. Nothing we do for God really matters, until we recognize and take full advantage of the ministry of the Holy Spirit in our lives.

 

Just think about it: What in the world could you do for God all by yourself and in your own power? Nothing! The Father has more angels than there are people, and these angels are more powerful than humans (Psalm 8:4-5). So, in a sense, He really doesn’t need humans to help Him. However, He created us in His image and after His likeness so it would be possible for us to be filled with His Spirit. That’s a blessing and a privilege angels don’t have.

 

Your service to God becomes acceptable to Him when you render it through the Holy Spirit. Therefore, learn to always honour the Spirit and appreciate His presence in your life. Never take it lightly; His presence is the most important thing to you. Remember, life is nothing without the Holy Spirit. When you get to know Him and fellowship with Him, your life takes on a new meaning.
