Spirit who Bears Witness & Helps
Apostle John desires his spiritual
children enjoy close fellowship
with God & writes telling them how:
God is Light and therefore to
engage in fellowship with Him
means walking in the light of
His commandments. God is Love,
and thus His children must walk
in love. God is Life, and those
who desire fellowship with Him
must possess the spiritual life,
which begins with spiritual birth.
Lord, we’ll Overcome with Your Help:
Whatever is born of God overcomes
the world. And this is the victory
that has overcome the world – our
faith. Who is he who overcomes
the world but he who believes
that Jesus is the Son of God? And
it is the Spirit who bears witness
for the Spirit is truth (1Jn 5:4-5).
This is the Confidence we have
in approaching God; that if we
ask anything according to His will,
He hears us. And if we Know that
He hears us – whatever we ask
– we Know that we have what
we asked of Him (1Jn 5:14-15).
We know that God’s children do not
make a practice of sinning, for God’s
Son Holds them securely, and the
evil one cannot touch them (v18).
Holy Spirit, Your Word says the key
to victory is faith and faith comes
by hearing by the Word of God.
Grant me supernatural victory
O Helper so that I may testify how
divine faith has restored my dignity,
renewed my joy and guided me
into God’s gracious plan for my life.
Meanwhile, help me abide in Christ
and fill my emptiness, for I am
more than a conqueror in You,
my Higher Power in Jesus name.
Father, it gives me Confidence
to know that if I ask according
to Your will, You will hear me
and I will have what I ask for.
So I come to You Lord as Your
beloved child and ask You to help
me pray according to Your will.
And I know I will receive good things
from You because it’s Your nature
to bless and You love me. Amen.
Lord Jesus, we face difficulties as
everyone else and Christians may be
targeted because they are believers.
And it is a relief that You are Lord
over even the evil one. All who belong
to You are eternally safe; and all who
opposed You’re completely defeated.
For You Lord had purchased us with
Your blood, You take us to Yourself,
and You Will Hold us securely. Amen.
