Jesus is Essential

John 16:14–15: He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you. All things that the Father has are Mine. Therefore I said that He will take of Mine and declare it to you.


Because Jesus is the Logos, the revelation of the Father (or as Paul expressed it, “the image of the invisible God,” all that belongs to the Father is also the Son’s. The Spirit of Truth brought glory to Jesus as He revealed to the apostles things pertaining to the person and work of the Logos (taking from what is Mine and making it known to you). The Spirit worked in the apostles’ minds so that they could perceive, understand, and teach about the Savior. 1

Walking with Jesus

Wait upon the Lord today and He will reveal Himself to you. Read John 16:5-15 slowly. Ask for the Holy Spirit of God to open your eyes and heart to the revelation of Himself. Pray that God will teach you how to walk in the Spirit today.

And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son & of the Holy Spirit. Matthew 28:18–19

The Holy Spirit reveals all that God wants you to know about Him and His will..

Praying

Lord, thank You for giving me purpose, and direction, and assurance.
