YOUR VERY PRESENT HELP

Levie Gomagoma Matthew 10:19 NLT
When you are arrested, don’t worry about how to respond or what to say. God will give you the right words at the right time. For it is not you who will be speaking, it will be the Spirit of your Father speaking through you
— Matthew 10:19 NLT

I would like you to examine closely what the Lord Jesus said in our opening scripture. He says don’t be perturbed when you face trials because of your faith in Him. Don’t try to premeditate what you will say when questioned. He says at the right time, the Holy Spirit will give you the right words to speak. If you are faced with a situation that seems to be an emergency and you are somewhat not sure what you will say or do. The Holy Spirit is God’s answer for you. Don’t worry. You can even thank Him now that He will give you the right words at the right time. He is the very present help in time of need. He is never hemmed in by any situation. Psalm 46:1 (NLT) declares, “God is our refuge and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble”. The Holy Spirit carries out this wonderful ministry in your life. He is the God who is always ready to help in times of trouble.

When people say it’s an emergency and there is little time to prepare, don’t panic like the rest, rather recognize the Holy Spirit as your ever-ready helper. People may call it emergency but to Him it is not. Jesus was never under panic irrespective of the situation. When faced with boisterous winds as He sailed with His disciples, He maintained composure and uttered the right words of command, calming the environment (Mark 4:39). He was never confused and under panic. Such is the life you have today in Him. The same Holy Spirit who was with Him then is with you today. Take courage today because the Holy Spirit is your ever present help in time of challenges. Treasure Him and His ministry in your life always. At the right time, the right words and direction will be given to you from Him.

Prayer
Dear Holy Spirit you are my very present help. You are my comforter and strengthener. You are my greatest advantage. In Jesus name. Amen
