MAY 3
WE WILL COME
John 14:23
Jesus answered him, “If a man loves me, he will keep my word. My Father will love him, and we will come to him, and make our home with him. (WEB)
Every believer is the dwelling place of the Godhead—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. In today's Scripture passage, Jesus tells His disciples that when the Spirit is poured out on them, He will come, and His Father will come, and THEY will make their home in us.
In addition to being the dwelling place of Father and Son, 1 Corinthians 3:16 tells us that we are the dwelling place of the Spirit of God... Don’t you know that you are a temple of God and that God’s Spirit lives in you? (WEB)
This means that the Triune God dwells inside every believer. However, grasping this truth is often difficult because it is beyond our natural understanding. That is why we need the help of the Holy Spirit to make it known to us.
In Romans 8:16, the Apostle Paul writes that the Spirit of God bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God. It takes the Spirit of God, which lives within us, to make real the truth that God Himself has chosen to find a resting place in our hearts.
My prayer today is that this would become more real to us than it has ever been. Almighty God (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) has chosen to make His home in us! May we all be quickened with a deeper revelation today of the implications of having the Kingdom of God living within us—now!
Ephesians 2:18
For through him we both have our access in one Spirit to the Father. (WEB)
