do you remember the promise that Jesus made before he went up to heaven he told us that he would send the Holy Spirit to be with us in John 14 verse 16 he said and I will pray the father and he will give you another helper that he may abide with you forever Jesus promised us a Helper and today I want to encourage you to take hold of this promise and welcome the Holy Spirit into your life Welcome him into every part of your day each day presents an opportunity to walk with the spirit allowing
him to lead guide and shape your life according to God's perfect plan interestingly have you ever thought about how you usually start your day apart from those who starts their day with prayer it may be very different for some of us or some you may stumble out of bed blurry-eyed reaching for the alarm to Grant you just a few more precious minutes of sleep you may fumble around in the room a bit brewing coffee maybe catching a few minutes of the Morning News preparing for the day ahead while for others the way you start your
day may be quite different you may gradually turn your arms sliding out from under the covers you make a careful deliberate movement your hand is searching for The Familiar cool hard surface of your phone resting on the nightstand as you bring it closer your thumb swipes the screen and you begin to check for any messages or updates the quiet hum of the morning is interrupted only by the occasional chime or Buzz of notifications and so your day begins but in these moments we may Overlook something of vital importance we may neglect an opportunity a gift
that could fundamentally change how we experience our day that gift is the Holy Spirit you can invite the Holy Spirit to be your constant companion knowing that he is faithful to be with you and to work in and through you for God's glory so you might be thinking what does it really mean to start your day with the Holy Spirit it's not as simple as pouring a cup of coffee or lacing up your shoes no starting your day with the Holy Spirit is so much more than that it is the conscious decision to invite God
through his spirit to guide Inspire and walk with you in all you do it is the desire to not just live but to live in communion with our creator allowing him to lead us in his perfect wisdom and love in Acts 8 verses 29 to 30 the Bible says the spirit told Philip go to that Chariot and stay near it then Philip ran up to the Chariot and heard the man reading Isaiah the prophet do you understand what you are reading Philip asked in these verses Philip one of Jesus's disciples is told by the Holy
Spirit to go near a chariot there's a man in the Chariot reading the words of Isaiah a prophet from the Old Testament part of the Bible because the Holy Spirit told Philip to go to The Chariot he was able to help the man understand the words of Isaiah this shows us how the Holy Spirit can guide us to be in the right place at the right time just like Philip when we start our day with the Holy Spirit we can get access to God's leading and God's wisdom this is a good reason why we need
to pray every morning and ask the Holy Spirit to be with us as we go about our day let us also consider the Apostle Peter in Acts 10 Peter was praying on the rooftop when he had a vision that led him to a profound understanding of God's unconditional love God through his Spirit spoke to Peter guiding him teaching him and preparing him for the works he had planned at times you may think that these stories seem distant or they only happen in the Bible but that's not true the same holy spirit that guided Philip and
Peter is the same Holy Spirit available to each of us every morning the same God Who provided strength and wisdom is there for us at the start of each new day our challenges might be different but we all face our struggles it may be a Health crisis financial difficulties or personal struggles that threaten to consume us but here's the profound truth when we start our day with the Holy Spirit we're not facing these trials alone as Paul assured us in Romans 8 verse 31 if God is for us who can be against us so how
do we invite the Holy Spirit into our mornings starts with a simple invitation in The Quiet Moments before the day sweeps you away take a moment to welcome God into your day it doesn't require eloquent words or elaborate prayers a heartfelt holy spirit guide me today is more than enough let the Bible be your morning nourishment as you feed your body and feed your spirit let the word of God be the first thing that you consume each day as we are reminded in Deuteronomy 8 verse 3. man does not live by bread alone but man
lives by every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord inviting the Holy Spirit into your mornings is a Daily Commitment it's a journey filled with growth Discovery and transformation there may be days when it feels difficult days when you might question if the holy spirit is truly with you but remember the Holy Spirit isn't based on feelings but on God's promise he's there with you guiding you even when you may not sense him and as you begin your day with the Holy Spirit anticipate the transformation that will take place you will experience peace
amidst chaos strength and weakness and Clarity and confusion Beyond these blessings you will develop a relationship with God that is deeper and more intimate than anything this world can offer so let us embrace the spiritual practice not just today but every day beginning each day with god with his holy spirit in second Corinthians 13 verse 14 the Bible encourages us saying May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ the love of God and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all now to all those within the sound of my voice let us go
