The Holy Spirit as HELPER
The Holy Spirit is often referred to as the Helper, based on Jesus' promise in John 14:16-17:
"And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, to be with you forever—even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him. You know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you."
Here’s how the Holy Spirit functions as a Helper:
1. Comforter in Times of Need
The Holy Spirit provides peace and comfort, especially during trials or grief. Jesus reassured His disciples that they would not be left alone, as the Spirit would be with them (John 14:26-27).
2. Teacher and Reminder
The Spirit teaches believers and helps them remember God's Word:
"But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you." (John 14:26)
3. Guide into Truth
The Holy Spirit reveals divine truth and helps us discern God’s will:
"When the Spirit of truth comes, He will guide you into all the truth..." (John 16:13)
4. Empowerer for Service
Through the Holy Spirit, believers are empowered to live righteous lives and carry out God's mission, as seen at Pentecost (Acts 1:8).
5. Intercessor in Prayer
The Holy Spirit intercedes for us, especially when we don't know how to pray:
"The Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words." (Romans 8:26)
6. Seal of Salvation
The Spirit is a guarantee of our inheritance in Christ, confirming that we belong to God:
"In Him you also... were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit, who is the guarantee of our inheritance..." (Ephesians 1:13-14).
7. Source of Transformation
The Holy Spirit transforms believers, producing the fruit of the Spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23).
