Words taught by the Spirit

Scripture: 1 Corinthians 2:13 This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words.

Observation: I had a counseling session with a man yesterday that has just came out of drug use and has been clean for 6 months and now going through a divorce. I was able to listen and speak words I couldn’t, but the Holy Spirit intervened and spoke to him through me. I have prayed and the words are never mine and even in this journal the things that are expressed are of the spirit.

Application: To allow the Holy Spirit to keep using me. Be in prayer when I speak and let the spirit take control. Always be in the Word so I have direction on what to do and give God all the glory. Put myself in situations that the Holy Spirit can take charge and freely give in to the spirit’s guidance.

Prayer: Dear God fill me with the Holy Spirit and take charge over this servant. Use me as you will and speak through me to others to encourage, guide and help those you want to touch. I freely give you this life as a living sacrifice.
