TREM Daily Devotional 12th May 2021 Wednesday Message By Dr. Mike Okonkwo
Topic: You Have The God Advantage
“Nevertheless I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send Him to you.” John 16:7 KJV
The fact that you are connected to God gives you an advantage above everyone else. No child of God is disadvantaged. Hence, you are not ordinary. It is your responsibility to maximize your advantage. Far too many believers are walking around confused; this shouldn’t be the case because “God hath not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, and of love and of a sound mind” (2 Timothy 1:7 KJV).
Believers should be the happiest people on this planet because Christ has done it all. It is finished. That means it has been concluded and you know what? He didn’t leave us alone. He gave us the Holy Spirit- our God-given advantage. The Holy Spirit lets us know exactly what the mind of Christ is concerning whatever it is we are faced with. 1 Corinthians 2:10-13 tells us that the Holy Spirit informs us about those things which have been freely given to us by God. Beloved, don’t toy with your relationship with the Holy Spirit because you need the Helper. The Helper gives you the edge over everyone else. He is available to tell you how to go about your business, your job, your family, your finances and your Christian life. He is there to help you become the best you can be in all spheres of human endeavor. He was sent into the world to help you, to teach you and to counsel you.
The help of the Holy Spirit is endless, but how many believers are taking advantage of our Helper? How many believers truly take out time to fellowship with the Holy Spirit? Have you asked Him how to go about that contract interview? Have you asked Him to reveal the scriptures to you? I urge you today to take out time to fellowship with the Holy Spirit. Leverage on your advantage and change your world.
