And in the same way—by our faith [*] the Holy Spirit helps us with our daily problems and in our praying. For we don’t even know what we should pray for nor how to pray as we should, but the Holy Spirit prays for us with such feeling that it cannot be expressed in words. And the Father who knows all hearts knows, of course, what the Spirit is saying as he pleads for us in harmony with God’s own will. (Romans 8:26-27 TLB)
As a believer you are not left to your own devices. Father God, has sent the Holy Spirit of God to us as promised in the name of Jesus Christ. “If you love me, obey me; and I will ask the Father and he will give you another Comforter, and he will never leave you. He is the Holy Spirit, the Spirit who leads into all truth.(John 14:15-17 TLB).
The Holy Spirit indwells believers at salvation, which means His supernatural power is available to us from that moment. We are powerless to live out our lives without Him. We can draw our strength and power from Him. He teaches us how to pray and what to pray for. We must pray consistently, in all trials and tribulations, even when we have no idea what the outcome of the situations maybe. This is when we must demonstrate and exercise our faith, believing in the Word of God, what His Word says; He shall surely prove His love and faithfulness to us. It is faith that releases the Spirit of God’s power within us. Ask the Holy Spirit to intercede for us “in harmony with God’s will.” Then when you bring your requests to God, trust that He will always do what is best.
Prayer
Holy Spirit, how grateful and thankful I am that Jesus sent You to indwell within me at the moment of my salvation, and Your supernatural power has been released in me. I can never praise and thank You enough for Your teachings. Your truth has set me free, in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
