Devotional Reflection

God gives us many gifts, but one of the most valuable is His presence in us through the Holy Spirit. Because of the Spirit, we are God's house (1 Corinthians 6:19). When we pray, the Spirit speaks for us based on what God wants (Romans 8:26-27). The Spirit helps us fight against our flesh (Romans 8:13-14). The Spirit strengthens us on the inside (Ephesians 3:16). In other words, the Spirit is working to make us more like Jesus. Let's thank God for sending the Holy Spirit to live inside us.
