Good News #157: The Holy Spirit That Jesus Gave Me Shall Guide Me Into All Truth, Revealing His Glory in My Life!
Man’s free will is a gift from God. We are all free to decide however we want to decide because God ordained for us to be able to do so.
And God will never at any time violate our free will. Otherwise, it is not free will.
However, our free will does not come with the option to freely choose the consequences of our choices… and the ripple effects of the combined consequences of all our choices down the road…
Now, the God who sees ahead…. who sees the future like no other… is the God who, for reasons we will never fully understand in this lifetime, loves us… and because of this love for humanity, He sends His word to give us glimpses of what is to come so that we can use our free will to make informed decisions.
In the old covenant, God sends His word through His prophets…
But in the new covenant cut by the blood of Jesus, while God still raises prophets, who are sent as gifts to the body of Christ, God gave every born again believer Himself in the Person of The Holy Spirit…who now dwells in us… The Holy Spirit impresses on us things that are to come…
In John 16:13, Jesus said:
“However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak and He will tell you things to come.”
The gospel is this — the moment you believe in and receive Jesus, The Holy Spirit makes His dwelling in you… He is the Spirit of truth who guides your steps into life, teaching you, encouraging, counseling… so that you are able to use your free will to keep yourself from harm’s way.
Every detail may not be revealed but the Lord will never lack in giving us glimpses of what is to come…
He does it for our good…to warn, caution and encourage us.
Whatta God!

Surely the Lord God does nothing,
Amos 3:7
Unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets.
