Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God calls Jesus accursed, and no one can say that Jesus is Lord except by the Holy Spirit.
Paul reminds us that our confession of Jesus as Lord is not just a bunch of words but the influence of the Holy Spirit within us.
Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God calls Jesus accursed, and no one can say that Jesus is Lord except by the Holy Spirit. 1 Corinthians 12:3
Paul emphasizes that genuinely declaring Jesus as Lord is possible only in the presence of the Holy Spirit. It goes beyond saying Jesus is Lord. It is about the heart behind those words.
When we confess Jesus as Lord and Savior, it is a testimony of our faith, evidence that the Holy Spirit is at work in our lives.
The role of the Holy Spirit in our confession of faith is crucial. The Holy Spirit enables us to understand and accept Jesus as Lord.
Our confession is not the result of our efforts or our understanding alone; it is a spiritual revelation empowered by God.
Invite the Holy Spirit to deepen your understanding and conviction of Jesus as Lord of your life today.
Seek His presence to empower your words and actions so that your confession of faith is a genuine reflection of His work within you.
Let your life continually declare that Jesus is Lord, by the power of the Holy Spirit working in and through you.
Do you rely on the Holy Spirit to guide you in your faith?
Heavenly Father, I am forever thankful for the Holy Spirit of Who lives within me. As Jesus is Lord of my life, Your Holy Spirit lives within. As I submit to the Holy Spirit’s leading, I know I am safe in the arms of You, Father God. I will read Your Word, submit to You, and wait on Your Holy Spirit to lead me in peace. What a blessed life and a refuge in this time of storm. Thank You, Father. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen.
Let Your Life Continually Declare That Jesus Is Lord, By The Power Of The Holy Spirit Working In And Through You.
