There were rooms in the inn, but there was no room for Jesus in the inn.
(See Luke 2:4-16)
(See Luke 2:4-16)
There is a room in you specially created to be inhabited by the Spirit of Christ.
God has given you the choice to receive His Spirit into you,
His intended dwelling place,
His intended dwelling place,
or to refuse His Spirit
and have that room in you filled with selfishness, demonic presence, and fear.
and have that room in you filled with selfishness, demonic presence, and fear.
This Christmas,
I pray that the gift and graces of the Holy Spirit will fill you
and keep filling you.
I pray that the gift and graces of the Holy Spirit will fill you
and keep filling you.
I pray you will never give that room in you to the enemy of your soul.
I pray you will embrace the One way in which Jesus has chosen to reveal Himself:
His Spirit.
There is a room in you. And, that room is not empty.
Who are you allowing to live there?
His Spirit.
There is a room in you. And, that room is not empty.
Who are you allowing to live there?
Now we have not received the spirit that belongs to the world, but the Holy Spirit Who is from God, given to us that we might realize and comprehend and appreciate the gifts of divine favor and blessing so freely and lavishly bestowed on us by God. And we are setting these truths forth in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Holy Spirit, combining and interpreting spiritual truths with spiritual language to those who possess the Holy Spirit. (First Corinthians 2:12-13)
