The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all. - 2 Corinthians 13:14 Its such a beautiful scripture. The three most important things in a Christians life is mentioned in the above-referenced scripture. The grace, or the undeserving favor, of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Without His undeserved favor we wouldnt be able to access the Covenant that is made available by His precious blood. The most important thing in the world is the power of the cross and the power of One who withstood and underwent the torment of the cross. I am honored that He loved me enough to die for me and then make His precious blood available for my atonement. The second thing is the Love of God that is offered in the life and person of Jesus Christ. God loved us so much that he wrapped a part of Himself in flesh and became man to endure the torture of the Cross and the agony of trials that preceded the Cross. If you would like to know how much God loves you then simply study the life of Christ. God came down from the glory and majesty of Heaven, in the person of His Son, was tortured, beaten, ridiculed, mocked, and then crucified; this because His love transcends all things. The third part of the scripture is the fellowship of the Holy Spirit. Beautiful! Not only can we accept the blood of Jesus and the awakening of our spiritual selves through that Covenant but we can enjoy the fellowship of the Holy Spirit - the unseen but tangible power of the Living God. In the Trinity - the Father, the Son (Word), and the Holy Spirit - each One is equal but have different characteristics and functions. The Father is the Giver, He is the Originator of Law and Order in the universe. The Son of God is the Adminstrator and the One who sees that the Law of God is come to pass - He is the Word. It is upon Him that the whole of the Creation of the Father exists. The Holy Spirit is the Manifester of the Father. It is the Holy Spirit who is the power and presence of the Father. He isnt some mysterious being who just sits beside the Father and Son on a golden throne. He is the force and power, the convictor, the leader, guide, comforter, the Spirit of Truth and Holiness. He is the personal presence of the Most High that fills and empowers (Acts 1:8) the believer through spiritual authority and the gifts and fruits of the Spirit. He is the one that allows us to experience the presence of the Creator. To experience Him is beyond anything you can begin to articulate. To feel His presence to overflow your being, to comfort you in the midst of havoc, to guide you when the way is dark, and to fill you with hope and love and joy when the weights of life set unyielding upon your shoulders. When the Holy Spirit made His abode in me it triggered something that would change my life over many years. It is through the Spirit that I have communion with the Father. It is through Him that I am able to pray in the Spirit which builds up my most holy faith (Jude 1:20). Through the Holy Spirit my spirit is swept into a realm of the Divine and spirit that I could not access without the Holy Spirit. How sweet it is to be delivered to the Throne Room of Heaven to experience the power of the Most High God!!! I am forever grateful for the baptism of the Holy Ghost and for His ministrations through and for me. Meeting the Trinity was the best thing that ever happened to me. The grace of my Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God the Father, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit. I wouldnt trade it for anything in this world!
