and understanding, the spirit of counsel
and might, the spirit of knowledge and of
the fear of the LORD; And shall make him
of quick understanding in the fear of the
LORD: and he shall not judge after the
sight of his eyes, neither reprove after the
hearing of his ears (Isaiah 11:2,3).
Live in God’s Will
When you cherish God’s presence and
yield to it, you will have the reality of Calvary
and be able to keep the sufferings of
Jesus ever before you. Paul said, That I may
know him, and the power of his resurrection,
and the fellowship of his sufferings,
being made conformable unto his death
(Philippians 3:10).
To know Jesus in His sufferings, you must
be willing to suffer for His name’s sake like
Paul did. He said, If we suffer because of
doing God’s will, we shall also reign with
him: if we deny him, he also will deny us
(II Timothy 2:12). If God denies you, you
will end up in hell for eternity.
Jesus prayed, Oh my Father, if it be possible,
let this cup pass from me: nevertheless
not as I will, but as thou wilt (Matthew
26:39). Only when you can truly pray that
way with all your heart will you be able to
live and act just like Jesus all the time.
Jesus taught the disciples to pray, Thy
will be done in earth, as it is in heaven
(Matthew 6:10). “Thy will” means God’s
perfect will, and nothing less will do. God’s
perfect will won’t be done in all the Earth
until the Perfect Age, but you can do God’s
will in your life if you really want to when
you live in His presence every day. That will
take you in so close to the Lord that even
though He is not here in a bodily form, you
can see Him all the time through the Spirit.
Then His hands will be untied to always
hear your cries. The eyes of the LORD are
upon the righteous, and his ears are open
unto their cry (Psalm 34:15).

began to speak with
other tongues, as the Spirit
gave them utterance (Acts 2:4).
The Early Church disciples lived in God’s
presence and were led by the Holy Ghost for
over 30 years. The Bible described those disciples
as these that have turned the world
upside down (Acts 17:6). The Church age was
filled with earthquakes of divine power going
forth because the glorious presence of God
dwelt in the hearts of every believer who had
gone on to receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Children of God can have that same power
in this final hour. And it shall come to pass in
the last days, saith God, I will pour out of
my Spirit upon all flesh (Acts 2:17). But you
have to accept that outpouring and cherish it if
you want to be led by the Spirit every day. You
can choose to do things and walk paths that are
not necessarily sinful, but that is not what the
Holy Spirit would lead you to do; so He will
not be able to do all for you that He wants to.
Through the Spirit, you can have divine
strength, wisdom and understanding. The
Bible says, Truly I am full of power by the
spirit of the LORD (Micah 3:8). When Jesus
was on Earth, He received that Holy Ghost
power; and the Bible tells what that power
did for Him, The spirit of the LORD shall
rest upon him Jesus, the spirit of wisdom
