Be Sensitive

Ezekiel 11:19 And I will give them one heart [a new heart] and I will put a new spirit within them; and I will take the stony [unnaturally hardened] heart out of their flesh, and will give them a heart of flesh [sensitive and responsive to the touch of their God],

Are you sensitive to the touch of God? I am not talking about rational thought. I am speaking as it is referred to here, a loving relational awareness. In every case where God measures man, in a personal relationship, He does not look to our actions as much as to our heart condition. God knows that if He can foster a deep abiding love with us, in us, then what we do will reflect that loving relationship.

As Jesus promised, the Father has given of Himself in the 3rd person, the Holy Spirit. He is God just as much as the Father and the Son. His personality does not differ as they are One. His role however differs because He is in close personal contact with us. As such, we need to be aware of that role and how He enacts the will of the Father.

John 15:26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:

The Holy Spirit is the perfect essence of humility. He never talks about Himself and will only testify of Jesus Christ.

John 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

Psalm 119:11a,58a,161b Thy word have I hid in mine heart, I intreated thy favour with my whole heart: my heart standeth in awe of thy word.

One thought on “Be Sensitive”

  1. Excellent.
    I love it that you made it so clear that the Holy Spirit is a person. There are those would say He is merely a force, thus denying the trinity.
