Romans 8:26-27

26 So too the Holy Spirit comes to our aid and bears us up in our weakness; for we do not know what prayer to offer nor how to offer it worthily as we ought, but the Spirit Himself goes to meet our supplication and pleads in our behalf with unspeakable yearnings and groanings too deep for utterance. 27 And He Who searches the hearts of men knows what is in the mind of the Holy Spirit (what His intent is), because the Spirit intercedes and pleads before God in behalf of the saints according to and in harmony with God’s will.

As I read this I rejoice, because God knows what your going through, and His will is to help you in strengthening your walk with God.

1. The Holy Spirit is the Power of God

2. The Holy Spirit is the Ability of God

3. The Holy Spirit is the Wisdom of God

4. The Holy Spirit is the Authority of God

The Spirit came upon Jesus to touch and change the lives of His people to heal, deliver, and to save all that came to Him. We also have this incredible gift of God’s Spirit to pray for us and help us in our infirmities or weaknesses. There may be times that we need more faith, to stand on God’s Word or help to pray. You may not know how to pray in certain situations, so the Holy Spirit helps us pray in the will of God.

Read what Paul said in 1 Corinthians 2:-16

And so it was with me, brothers and sisters. When I came to you, I did not come with eloquence or human wisdom as I proclaimed to you the testimony about God. ² For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified. ³ I came to you in weakness with great fear and trembling. ⁴ My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power, ⁵ so that your faith might not rest on human wisdom, but on God’s power. ⁶ We do, however, speak a message of wisdom among the mature, but not the wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing. ⁷ No, we declare God’s wisdom, a mystery that has been hidden and that God destined for our glory before time began. ⁸ None of the rulers of this age understood it, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. ⁹ However, as it is written:

¹⁰ these are the things God has revealed to us by his Spirit. The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God. ¹¹ For who knows a person’s thoughts except their own spirit within them? In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. ¹² What we have received is not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may understand what God has freely given us. ¹³ This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, explaining spiritual realities with Spirit-taught words. ¹⁴ The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit. ¹⁵ The person with the Spirit makes judgments about all things, but such a person is not subject to merely human judgments, ¹⁶ for,

Paul was praying for the Holy Spirit to empower our lives so that we could be a bold witness for Jesus Christ.

1. The Holy Spirit wants to give us WISDOM in presenting the gospel in the world we live in.

2. The Holy Spirit wants to demonstrate His supernatural power by changing lives and transforming people through the truth of God’s Word.
