DO NOT GRIEVE THE HOLY SPIRIT

THE DAILY FOUNTAIN DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE OF THE CHURCH OF NIGERIA (ANGLICAN COMMUNION)


DATE: THURSDAY, 30TH JUNE, 2022 


TOPIC: DO NOT GRIEVE THE HOLY SPIRIT


TEXT: EPHESIANS 4:30-32 


30.  And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.

31.  Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice.

32.  And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God in Christ forgave you.


MESSAGE: 

The Holy Spirit is the promise made to believers by Christ before His ascension to heaven. This was fulfilled on the day of Pentecost when the disciples were baptized with the Holy Spirit and got empowered for service. In John 14:17, Jesus again spoke about Him saying “...The Spirit of truth whom the world cannot receive because it neither sees Him nor knows Him, but you know Him for He dwells with you and will be in you.” The Holy Spirit lives inside the believer to teach, guide, inform, comfort, reveal hidden matters, convict, empower for service, etc. His role in the life of a child of God is unquantifiable. No child of God can function acceptably without Him. He has emotions and operates in an environment of love, gentleness, peace, patience, compassion and forgiveness. If any life does not provide a conducive environment for Him, He becomes grieved and leaves. This was the case with Samson in Judges 16:20.


Therefore, put off behaviors like anger, stubbornness, unbelief of any part of God’s word, bitterness, rage, immorality, greed, slander, malice and disobedience from your life, because they will definitely grieve Him. When you put these off, you will enjoy His presence and operations in your life.


PRAYER: 

Father, may I never grieve Your Holy Spirit with my body, spirit and soul in Jesus’ name,. Amen.

EXCERPTS FROM: 24/7 WARFARE PRAYERS AND SUPERNATURAL BREAKTHROUGH MANUAL

INTRODUCTION Right from childhood, the number “SEVEN” has always been an intrigue, an interesting puzzle, a fascination, and a great phenomenon to me. I was actually born on the seventh day of the month; perhaps this was one of the reasons why something leaps inside of me whenever I see the number. But as I grew up in the Christian faith I began to see a regular reference to it the scriptures. I was kind of saying, whoa! Holy bliss! Seven occurs 257 times, or 7 × 41 Seventh, the fractional part occurs 98 times or 7× 14 Seven –fold occurs 7 times. Seventy occurs 56 times or 7× 8 “Seventy” in combination with other numbers occurs 35 times or 7× 5. God is pleased to stamp the number “Seven” with the seal of perfection and completeness. God never down played the importance of the number, because it was the number of God. It is a carrier of God’s mysteries. It pleased God that, the Seventh man from Adam – Enoch sh
