Y’shua has me on a journey of
searching the scriptures for an understanding of the Holy Spirit. I keep being
surprised by places the Spirit is referenced that I’ve never noticed before.
The following is one verse I’ve landed on recently, followed by my paraphrase
of it after I picked it apart and studied it in the Strong’s.
John 14:16-17
“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.”
I have determined (and therefore it will happen) to beseech and
interrogate the Father, and He will commit to bestow and bring forth in you an
Intercessor, Consoler, and Advocate who will come between you and any attack,
that He may be joined together with you in companionship forever; that is the
unconcealed breath of God whom the world with its orderly arrangements and
decorations cannot accept, be amazed by, or get a hold of, because it does not
look closely or gaze with wide-open eyes upon Him. But you are aware of the
Spirit and gaze with wide-open eyes as at something remarkable because He
dwells and tarries, staying in one place with you, creating a union,
resemblance, and possession of you (you are His) in a fixed position (He will
not leave you) and relation of rest.
