Constant Contact

Did you know that Christians are in constant contact with God the Father?

The Holy Spirit – Part 5

Have you noticed your computer modem and router flashing or flickering, even when you are not doing anything on the internet?

Even if all of your equipment is turned off and unplugged from your modem or router, you’ll still see some traffic coming from your Internet Service Provider.  A very simple, and not very not technical, explanation for this it that the Internet Service Provider stays in contact with your modem so that when you want to access the Internet a useable connection is available for you.  I really do not understand how this works, I just know that it does work (most of the time) and I have access to the Internet.

We might say that the Holy Spirit works in a similar way.

Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. (Romans 8:26 ESV)

Without our prompting, the Holy Spirt communicates our needs to our Father in heaven.  Again I must say that I really do not understand how this works, bit I do know that it is awesome.

Add Romans 8:34 to this thought.  Scripture tells us, “Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised—who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us.”

Scripture tells us that Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit are both interceding on our behalf with God the Father.  Even without our knowing it, we are in constant contact with our Heavenly Father.  So regardless of how we may be feeling in times of weakness or suffering, or any other time, we are not being left to our own resources. We are being heard, loved and cared for every moment of every day by our Father in heaven.

Do these comments leave you speechless?  Don’t worry about it. The Holy Spirit and Jesus will speak for you.
