Pentecost Every Day
Lots of people wish it could be Christmas year round. How about Pentecost? Could we have Pentecost every day? Actually, yes. That’s called Christian living. For real.
But when the Helper (Comforter, Advocate, Intercessor—Counselor, Strengthener, Standby) comes, whom I will send to you from the Father,that is the Spirit of Truth who comes from the Father, He will testify and bear witness about Me. But you will testify also and be My witnesses, because you have been with Me from the beginning. (John 15:26-17, AMP)
Jesus did as he promised. He sent his disciples the Holy Spirit to help them in their every day lives. And if we are Jesus’ disciples, the Holy Spirit is for us too. If you are not filled with the Holy Spirit, you are trying to survive under your privileges as a child of God. y
The Holy Spirit comforts when we need comforting, advocates when we need advocating, counsels when we need counseling, strengthens when we need strengthening. And, most importantly, the Holy Spirit is always there for us.
Why wouldn’t we acknowledge the Spirit of God every day and let him have his way in and through us? Talk about blessings galore. Then we really would have Pentecost every day. I am in. How about you?
Gracious God,
Thank you for the gift of the Holy Spirit.
So much more than I deserve.
I open my heart to receive all your have for me.
Work in me, through me.
Let there be Pentecost every day.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen
Q4U: What do you think? How about Pentecost every day?
Be blessed, my fellow pilgrim, as you embrace the Holy Spirit and what he does in your life!

Mari-Anna,
I am so very grateful for the work of the Holy Spirit each day in our lives. I cannot even imagine what my life would be like without Him. Have a blessed day!
Me neither! Wouldn’t that be horrible? To be without wisdom, help, comfort and strength? Thanks so much, Joanne. God bless you!

I love this idea and phrase: Pentecost every day. I have just been focusing on the role of the Holy Spirit in revealing the things freely given to us by God. What a great conclusion to this meditation this morning.
Perfect. Just like God himself. He really is so good to us. Thanks, Ginger! Spirit-filled blessings in abundance!
Yes, we really do need to focus more on the Holy spirit in our day to day living because he is with us in the small ordinariness as well as the big feasts like Pentecost! I’m hanging out at lovelylittlelives.com and just found your blog today through #Sharinghisbeauty!
Well said, Hannah! Thanks for stopping by and sharing your thoughts. I will stop by at your place too. Great to meet you! Stay blessed and filled with the Holy Spirit!
