MATTHEW 7:27_And the rain descended…
I see a connection between the beginning of this verse and verse 25. Do you see it? It’s something we’ve seen all along. Trials, storms, disappointments, sufferings, and hard times come.
They come regardless of whether you’ve built your house on the Rock, or on the sand.
They come to the wise as well as to the foolish.
They come!
Prepare yourself!
Jesus gives wise advice in John 16:13 (KJV), “Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear [from God], that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.”
The Holy Spirit can prepare you for things to come. He speaks as you read the Bible and bears witness of its truth. The Holy Spirit makes you wiser than your enemy the devil, who wants you to fear the rains life can bring. Become a child of God and have the advantage of the Spirit’s teaching and leading.
Jesus doesn’t teach the Spirit will predict your future.
The Holy Spirit will increase your faith, build your trust, and prepare you for whatever the future has in store.
PRAYER
Glorious Lord Jesus, Thank You for the Holy Spirit. Help me listen and learn! In the powerful name of Jesus, Amen.
Christ prepares me for the future—Whatever it brings!
