HOW THE HOLY SPIRIT SAVES YOU FROM STRESS

Earlier in the day as I walked from the living room into the bedroom, I noticed a small eraser on the floor. I had a prompt in my spirit to pick it up and keep it. I told myself “I will pick it up later.” I never did. 

Later in the evening, Danielle made a mistake in her homework and we needed an eraser. We began to look for it and we could not find it. We looked for others and found none. I realised that the Holy Spirit’s instruction earlier in the day was to save me from stress later in the day. Eventually, Irewamiri found the eraser somewhere else and gave it to us. 

Every instruction from the Holy Spirit is to save you time and energy. It will surely save you from stress. The Holy Spirit is our guide and teacher. You will surely land in trouble when you try to do things your way. 

If you are a Child of God, you must know that you are not ordained to direct your steps.  You must ensure that you do not take the prompts of the Holy Spirit for granted. 

When you begin to allow your flesh to govern your life, you will see corruption and limitations showing up. The Holy Spirit will surely save you from troubles. 

You must keep the communion of the Holy Spirit a constant feature of your life. Talk with him all day. Engage the Spirit of the Lord. Ask questions and you will get answers.

There are times I am looking for something and after searching for a while, I remember that I should have asked the Holy Spirit. The very moment I say, “Holy Spirit, I need your help”, there is a light that comes to my heart as to where it can be found. It has happened several times. Now, I would rather ask the Holy Spirit for help first. 

Likewise, you can ask the Holy Spirit for strength to pray. He helps us in the place of prayer. You will discover that you have strength. You are not dozing as you pray. You can ask Him for help in the study of the Word of God. He is the Author. The scriptures will come alive. You can ask him for help with your marriage, parenting, ministry or business.

Let me close with the prayer of Paul: 

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen. 

(2 Corinthians 13:14 KJV)
