Rhapsody of Realities 16 January 2026: The Holy Spirit: The Power of Our Message
SCRIPTURE: (Acts 1:8) But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me….
In our previous study, we reviewed the reality of the Gospel, but did you know that the Holy Spirit is the power behind the Gospel? Without Him, our words would be empty and lifeless.
But with Him, our message comes alive with divine energy and proof. He’s the one who confirms the reality of Christ in us and through us. The Holy Spirit makes the difference between mere religion and a living relationship with God.
When you received Him, you received the ability to function like the Lord Jesus. You became a carrier of God’s power, capable of producing supernatural results. No one can live for, or serve God without the Holy Spirit. He’s your Comforter, Counsellor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener, and Standby. He’s in you and with you forever (John 14:16 AMPC).
He’s your divine partner. He’s more real than any person around you. The more you fellowship with Him, the more His wisdom and power manifest in your life. Trust and depend on Him daily to guide your thoughts, inspire your actions, prayers, and energise your words.
With the Holy Spirit, you can never be ordinary or disadvantaged. He’s the One who makes you a bold and effective preacher and minister of reconciliation; read our opening scripture again.
He empowers you to live victoriously and manifest the glory of God. He’s the Father of glory, and the Father that lives in you. He’s the power of our message.
CONFESSION
Blessed Holy Spirit, I thank you for your indwelling presence and power in my life. You’re my comforter, teacher, and guide. As I yield to your ministry in my life, I live in victory, excellence and dominion; with you, I can do all things; I win only and always, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
