Get ready to start a journey…a journey through the pages of the Bible and the pages of your life.
A few days ago, we focused on Isaiah 9:6 in a general way. As we enter the week of Christmas and zero in on Jesus, let’s drill down on each name the prophet uses to describe Jesus. Let’s start with “Wonderful Counselor.”
Anger produces strife, but it doesn’t have to. Instead of pressing anger, surrender it to God. Place your emotions under the control of the Holy Spirit that lives within every believer. He is more than capable of turning your swirling emotions into Spirit-controlled peace.
Jesus came to deliver people from their sins. He is the Messiah, the Christ, the Anointed One.
Because the Helper lives in us, we don’t have to go to a “holy place” to worship God; we are the “holy place,” the temple where the eternal God resides.
If your thinking, emotions, and desires are set on what the Holy Spirit desires, you will live your life under his control.
