2 Corinthians 13:14 KJV
The word communion means the interchange or sharing of thoughts or emotions, to fellowship with, to associate with, to communicate with! Do you communicate with the Holy Ghost? Do you listen quietly while he has his say in your life and then just have a wonderful conversation with him. Do you allow him to lead you down that good and straight way when he speaks to your heart? When Jesus went away he promised to send us another comforter. That we would never be alone! What a wonderful thing to know that we are never alone!
John 16:7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.
The Holy Ghost is our comforter and our guide in this world during our walk with Christ. I do not believe, no, I can go so far as to say that I know for a fact that I could not walk this walk alone. The flesh is not strong enough to withstand the devil and what he brings against us. We fight a spiritual battle every day in our walk with Christ and in order to win that battle, we must be the greater warrior. The flesh can't win against the devil, the HOLY GHOST is the warrior on the inside of every child of God that fights these battles for us!!
3 things Paul spoke of in 2 Corinthians 13:14
1: GRACE of Jesus Christ
2: LOVE of God the Father
3: COMMUNION of the Holy Ghost
Without the GRACE of the Lord Jesus Christ we would all be on our way to a devils hell. There would be no HOPE for mankind. For the bible says we are SAVED by GRACE not by WORKS lest any man should boast. Without the LOVE of GOD there would be no GRACE because GOD loved us so much that he was willing to watch his ONLY SON die to provide that GRACE to mankind. Without COMMUNION with the HOLY GHOST we would not know what direction to take in life. We could not make the right choices that would keep us on the straight and narrow path that leads to GOD. We have to be willing to listen for that STILL SMALL VOICE and HE will tell us what path to take. We cannot say we love Jesus and partake of his GRACE and never take time to have communion with the Holy Ghost. We cannot say we have the Holy Ghost living in us and not know the LOVE OF GOD. These things all go hand in hand with one another. I am so thankful this morning that I know his GRACE, that I know and experience GOD'S LOVE by loving those that are unworthy of my love. You see it's easy to love your own, your family, your friends, but when you learn to love those that don't deserve your love...that is the LOVE OF GOD and the only thing in this life that will ever teach you that kind of LOVE is having COMMUNION with the HOLY GHOST. The bible tells me that HE will teach me all things. John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. Blessed be his HOLY NAME!
