Dearest Father,
I believe Your Son is Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God, who came to die for my sins. I believe that when Christ died, He ascended into heaven and on Pentecost, He gave me Your gift of the Holy Spirit, to be with me each and every day, until Christ comes again.
Sometimes I feel my faith weakened when I can’t feel the Holy Spirit within me. I know He is there but somehow my sinfulness is keeping Him from filling me. I pray that any sin I am holding on to, any sin I have not called by name and asked for forgiveness, be revealed to me by the Holy Spirit so I may be forgiven and cleansed. I ask the Holy Spirit to fill me now with His Living Water, fill me to overflowing so I may walk in the Spirit with Christ. So that someday I may spend eternity with You, Your Son Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit in Your glorious kingdom of heaven.
Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts.See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.
-Psalm 139:23-24
I pray to You Almighty Father to strengthen my faith and trust. May the grace and strength of Your beloved Son bless me. As Jesus lived each day to glorify You and live a life free from sin, I pray I have the same strength and faith inside me. And as my faith grows stronger everyday, I pray He gives me the humility and honesty that He displayed every moment of His life, so that when I falter, I know to immediately come to the cross and ask for forgiveness, to turn away from my sin, and ask the Holy Spirit to fill me so I may go on to live a life that glorifies Christ.
(Be still and hear what God has to say)
Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong.
-Ephesians 3:17
I ask you this Father, in Your Son, Jesus' blessed name and I praise and glorify you today and everyday of my life. Amen
Can you feel the Holy Spirit working in your life? Is there something in your life, past or present, which may be holding Him back, keeping Him from helping you? Ask the Holy Spirit to bring to mind the source of interference. That’s just one of His roles, to reveal to us our sins. The Holy Spirit knows we are imperfect, and He loves us so much; He wants us to abundantly receive all the benefits His gifts of faith and grace can bring. But we need to invite Him in. If you are having difficulty feeling the power of the Holy Spirit inside you, talk with Him. He is patiently waiting to help.
