We need the Holy Ghost

 


Why We Need the Holy Ghost of God

The Holy Ghost, also known as the Holy Spirit, is a divine gift from God that plays a crucial role in the life of every believer. He is our guide, our helper, and the power that enables us to live a victorious Christian life. Without the Holy Ghost, we would struggle to walk in the ways of God and fulfill His purpose for us. Let’s explore why we need the Holy Ghost and what the Bible says about Him.

1. The Holy Ghost is Our Helper

Before Jesus ascended to heaven, He promised to send the Holy Spirit to be with us:

“But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.” – John 14:26 (KJV)

The Holy Ghost is our divine teacher, helping us understand God’s Word and reminding us of His truth.

2. The Holy Ghost Gives Us Power

One of the most powerful reasons we need the Holy Ghost is that He empowers us to live a strong and victorious Christian life. Jesus said:

“But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.” – Acts 1:8 (KJV)

The Holy Ghost equips us with strength to resist temptation, boldness to spread the gospel, and the ability to perform miracles in Jesus’ name.

3. The Holy Ghost Guides Us in Truth

We live in a world full of deception, but the Holy Spirit leads us into truth. Jesus declared:

“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 show you things to come.” – John 16:13 (KJV)

Through the Holy Ghost, we receive wisdom and discernment to recognize what is right and what is wrong.

4. The Holy Ghost Convicts Us of Sin

Without the Holy Spirit, we would not recognize sin in our lives or feel the need to repent. Jesus explained:

“And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment.” – John 16:8 (KJV)

The Holy Ghost convicts our hearts, leading us to repentance and helping us stay on the path of righteousness.

5. The Holy Ghost Produces Godly Fruit in Us

The Holy Spirit works within us to transform our character. The Bible says:

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.” – Galatians 5:22-23 (KJV)

Through the Holy Ghost, we develop these godly traits, becoming more like Christ in our daily lives.

6. The Holy Ghost Helps Us Pray

Sometimes, we don’t know how to pray or what to say, but the Holy Spirit intercedes for us. The apostle Paul wrote:

“Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.” – Romans 8:26 (KJV)

With the Holy Ghost, our prayers are made more powerful and effective.

Conclusion: We Need the Holy Ghost Every Day

The Holy Ghost is an essential part of our Christian journey. He gives us power, wisdom, and guidance while transforming us to be more like Jesus. Without Him, we would be weak and lost, but with Him, we walk in victory, peace, and truth.

If you have not yet received the Holy Ghost, ask God in faith. He is willing to fill you with His Spirit, and your life will never be the same again.

“If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?” – Luke 11:13 (KJV)

May we all seek the Holy Ghost daily and allow Him to lead us in every aspect of our lives. Amen!

A Vision in the Sky: The Sky Spoke Again: God Is Coming Soon (Part Two)

Image
In the early hours of today, I had a dream that left me shaken, thrilled, and deeply moved — one I feel compelled to share with the world. In the dream, I found myself at the gym with my brother and a group of friends. It was early morning, just as the sun was rising. After finishing our session, we all walked outside to head home. The sky was painted in that golden-orange hue that comes just before the full light of day. It felt peaceful… until something extraordinary happened. As I looked up, I saw a number — a sequence that looked like a date — scrolling upward across the sky. Its movement was clear, not rushed like my previous dream. Shocked, I pointed and shouted, "Everybody look! Are you seeing this?" To my amazement, every single person — about 25 of us — looked up and saw the same thing. We were shocked, amazed, ecstatic, excited, and yet frightened all at once. It wasn’t a hallucination. It wasn’t a private vision. It was real — and we all saw it. Then ca...

Children obey your parents

  Why Children Need to Listen to Their Parents – What the Bible Says Children are a gift from God, and He has given parents the responsibility to guide, teach, and protect them. Listening to parents is not just about obedience; it is about learning wisdom, understanding right from wrong, and growing into a godly and responsible person. The Bible has a lot to say about why children should listen to their parents and the blessings that come with obedience. Biblical Teachings on Listening to Parents 1. It Is a Command from God The Bible makes it clear that children should obey their parents. One of the Ten Commandments states: “Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the Lord your God is giving you.” – Exodus 20:12 (NIV) Obedience is not just a rule but a command that brings blessings and longevity. 2. Obedience Brings Blessings The apostle Paul reinforces this command in Ephesians 6:1-3: “Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. ‘Ho...

With God, Nothing Is Impossible: Unlocking Divine Possibilities

Image
In a world filled with limitations, failures, and impossibilities, it's easy to feel overwhelmed by what we cannot do. We often face closed doors, dead ends, and battles that seem too big to conquer. But in the middle of it all, there's a timeless truth that brings hope, faith, and courage: “For with God nothing shall be impossible” (Luke 1:37, KJV). This powerful scripture was spoken by the angel Gabriel to Mary when he announced that she would miraculously conceive Jesus, even though she was a virgin. It was a divine reminder that human limitations do not restrict God. What seems impossible in the natural realm becomes possible in the hands of the supernatural. Understanding the Context Luke 1:37 was spoken in the midst of two miraculous stories: Elizabeth, who was barren and well past childbearing age, was pregnant with John the Baptist. Mary, a young virgin, was chosen to give birth to the Son of God. Both situations defied logic, biology, and common sense—but G...
