Holy Spirit’s Power

Getting Over Depression Journal

Scripture: Acts 1: [8] But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”

Observation: When I received Jesus as my Lord and savior I received the Holy Spirit. My thoughts, speech and actions changed, it seemed immediately. At times it seems I’ve been suppressing the Holy Spirit in my life. My laziness, pride and greed stop me from fulfilling what the Holy Spirit wants of me. My one job is to be a witness for Jesus sharing the gospel and what He has done for me, which only can be done with the help of the Holy Spirit.

Application: I need to make a better effort to allow the Holy Spirit to work in my life. To set goals on what I should be doing to share the gospel for my Lord and to be the man God calls me to be for Him.

Prayer: Dear Lord fill me with the Holy Spirit and take charge. Use me as you will and open my eyes to your glory, fulfilling the purpose you have created me for.
