PRAISE & WORSHIP
FIRE SCRIPTURE: Luke 4:1-14
1 Then Jesus, being filled with the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit [a]into the wilderness, 2 being [b]tempted for forty days by the devil. And in those days He ate nothing, and afterward, when they had ended, He was hungry.
3 And the devil said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread.”
4 But Jesus answered him, saying, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, [c]but by every word of God.’ ”
5 [d]Then the devil, taking Him up on a high mountain, showed Him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. 6 And the devil said to Him, “All this authority I will give You, and their glory; for this has been delivered to me, and I give it to whomever I wish. 7 Therefore, if You will worship before me, all will be Yours.”
8 And Jesus answered and said to him, [e]“Get behind Me, Satan! [f]For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only you shall serve.’ ”
9 Then he brought Him to Jerusalem, set Him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down from here. 10 For it is written:
‘He shall give His angels charge over you,
To keep you,’
11 and,
‘In their hands they shall bear you up,
Lest you dash your foot against a stone.’ ”
12 And Jesus answered and said to him, “It has been said, ‘You shall not [g]tempt the Lord your God.’ ”
13 Now when the devil had ended every [h]temptation, he departed from Him until an opportune time.
14 Then Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit to Galilee, and news of Him went out through all the surrounding region.

We shall round off this discourse on the roles of the Holy Spirit in the lives of believers today. The Holy Spirit is believers’ standby because He provides them guidance, strength and empowerment in various situations. He serves as believers’ standby in several ways:
(1) He is always available, willing and ready to assist, guide and empower believers in every situation. In the Bible, Jesus, the Apostles, Peter, Paul and David all experienced the Holy Spirit as their standby on different occasions.
(2) He is with believers everywhere they go and is present with them at all times, providing comfort, peace and reassurance. Whenever a believer is at his wits end, troubled or depressed and in need of guidance and direction, he or she should remember that the Holy Spirit is standing by, ready to act immediately He is called upon
(3) He empowers believers to face challenges, overcome obstacles, and live a life of faith and obedience.
In playing His noble roles as believers’ standby, the Holy Spirit does the following: (1) He provides guidance by helping believers make wise decisions and navigate life’s challenges.
