John 14:15-19

‘If you love me, keep my commands. And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you for ever – the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you. I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. Before long, the world will not see me any more, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live.’ (NIV UK)

This passage reminds us that as Christians we are never alone, because Jesus promised to send God the Holy Spirit to live within us. 

The disciples were confused and upset. Jesus was talking to them about leaving. They could not know he was talking to them about his death, resurrection and ascension. 

What Jesus promises is incredible: the Holy Spirit living with us, and within us. The one through whose power Jesus was raised from the dead lives in us. No wonder Jesus says, “Because I live, you also will live”.

PRAYER

Our loving heavenly Father, thank you that because we believe in Jesus, we are never alone. Thank you for the gift of your Holy Spirit, living with us, giving us life. We pray today for the help, guidance, power and comfort of your Holy Spirt in every part of our lives where we are in need. Amen
