Title: The Spirit of Truth

-
Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.
John 16:13 KJV
Devotion: Jesus lived with the disciples for 31/2 years, He was about to leave them. They were sorrowful and anxious to know more deep things which only the Spirit could reveal this to them. He had clearly told them that He was leaving them and was going back to the Father in heaven and yet, in His loving-compassion, the Lord Jesus reminded them that He would send the Spirit of truth to guide them into all truth "and to disclose to them what is yet to come."
 The spirit of truth aka Holy Spirit (ghost) is part of the Godhead along with God the father and Jesus the son. None of the three is inferior to the other but Jesus and the Spirit are submissive hence the Spirit reveals only what he hears. 
  In this life there are and will be many issues unrevealed as yet ; to us these are mysteries and only the Spirit of God can interpret them to us. The Spirit will listen to God and whatever he hears he will reveal to us. 
 This Holy Spirit must live within us so that when we ask he will guide us appropriately based on what he receives from the Father in heaven. To have Holy Spirit we must have Christ and live like Christ so that the Spirit sent by Christ will locate us.
 Dearly beloved when you get to the station where you don't know what next ask Holy Spirit in prayers, listen to the inner voice. Testimonies await you in Jesus name. Hallelujah.

Title: When your time shall be over, you'll fly away.

-
Psalms 90:10  The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away. Devotional: Late music legend – Peter Tosh sang a song with this title many years ago. It came to mind yesterday while I listened to a beautifully delivered sermon at a burial. I therefore penned this devotional on same title. Do not be deceived, at a point in your life you’ll fly away.   There comes a day when the tapestry of your earthly existence is folded. The moments of struggle, joy, triumph, and trials will all coalesce into a story complete. When that time comes, the soul, unburdened by the weight of the mortal frame, ascends beyond the veil of this world—taking flight toward eternal rest.   You are not bound to the temporal; your essence is celestial. As the Psalmist declared, "The days of our years are threescore years and ten...it is soon cut off, and we ...
