The Seal of God’s Intimacy With You (God’s Love Language 11)
“If you love Me, you will keep My commandments. I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may be with you forever; that is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not see Him or know Him, but you know Him because He abides with you and will be in you.”
John 14:15-17 (NASB1995)
Beloved, God’s heartbeat wasn’t just for Jesus to die for your sins; His heartbeat is to be mingled with you.
God intentionally made man, that He will have His Family, which vibrates at His frequency of love.
His desire is to indwell you and to become one with you.
God, through the Holy Spirit indwells anyone who desires and delights in Him.
This is not to suggest that, the Holy Spirit is received according to our works.
This only means that those who believe in the Lord, are those who love the Lord, delight in His words and receive the Holy Spirit.
As you can see in the opening scripture.
“If you love Me, you will keep My commandments. I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may be with you forever;” John 14:15-16.
There is no need to be wondering who the “Another Helper” is.
Just in the next verse the Lord provides the answer:
“that is the Spirit of truth…” (John 14:17)
This clearly is the Holy Spirit and not any other person.
However, the promise of the Holy Spirit, is not to be fulfilled in all men automatically. The promise of the Holy Spirit is to be fulfilled in those who believe and receive the Lord Jesus.
“Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me” Revelation 3:20. (NKJV)
Have you received the Lord, as He knocked at the door of your heart?
There is the invitation of the Lord to have a deeper relationship of love with you.
The day you received the Lord, the Holy Spirit came to indwell you.
When you received the Holy Spirit, God came to make His home in you.
What was God’s goal for indwelling you?
INTIMACY!
The Holy Spirit in you is the seal of God’s Intimacy with you.
Your ability to commune or have intimacy with God in a deeper way is by the Holy Spirit. He supplies you with the love of God (Romans 5:5), and empowers you with the truth of God’s Word, the life of God and leads you in your walk with God.
“In him you also, when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and believed in him, were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit” Ephesians 1:13 (ESV)
DIG DEEPER
(2 Corinthians 1:21-22; John 6:67; Isaiah 42:1;61:1; 2 Corinthians 5:5)
WE PRAY
– Thanking the Lord for the seal of the Spirit upon us.
– And that we grow in the understanding of God’s Spirit to enjoy His communion.
