The Gift Of GOD To Us? Power, Love,

A Sound Mind And The Holy Ghost

2nd Timothy 1:7 KJV

For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

We have experienced the most amazing event ever recorded, the resurrection of Jesus Christ but before leaving the disciples, He promised them a gift that would never leave them, The Holy Ghost. We will collectively experience this gift on the Day of Pentecost (which is coming) as we receive this precious gift of being filled or refilled with it to accomplish what Jesus has assigned you and I to complete.

The Apostle Paul is reminding Timothy of the "POWER" Jesus is giving us through the gift of The Holy Ghost to accomplish every task we will ever face. We are not to fear anything because with the gift, we have Power (boldness to speak about and teach those who don't know about our Jesus) Love (encouraging those who have bad habits that Jesus is a habit breaker) and a Sound Mind (good judgement, self control, the ability to understand and make right decisions. 

Paul is reminding him that the Holy Spirit's fullness and gifts provide his and our power to operate in our ministry boldly and without fear. Verse 9 reminds you and I "who hath saved us and called us with an holy calling, not according to our works but according to his own purpose and grace" which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began. Verse 10...But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Savior Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.

The gift of the Holy Ghost changed the disciples from being cowardly to a Holy Boldness enabling them to become the dynamic men of GOD Jesus knew they would become. You too can receive this gift. You don't have to be part of a click or a certain group.

Dedicate time for prayer, ask Him to give you "Power, Love and a Sound Mind". Lose yourself in Praise To The Lord to fill you with the gift. He will and like the disciples and so many that have received the gift your life will never be the same. 

Thank You Father for Your Word
