Pensamento:
O Espírito Santo não nos capacita apenas agora. Ele é nosso fiador (2 Coríntios 1:22; 5:5) e nossa segurança de que veremos Deus face a face (1 João 3:1-2) e compartilharemos na sua glória (Colossenses 3:1-4). Ele está vivo em nós e nos promete vida que nunca terminará.
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
The Holy Spirit doesn't just empower us now (Ephesians 3:14-21) — for sure, he does provide us power and strength, insight and guidance — but the Holy Spirit's work is not just powerful now, giving life to our "mortal bodies". The Spirit is also our guarantee for our future (2 Corinthians 1:22; 5:5) and our assurance that we will see God face to face (1 John 3:1-2) and share in his glory (Colossians 3:1-4). The Spirit is alive in us "as we wait eagerly for our adoption to sonship, the redemption of our bodies," and promises us life that never will end in the presence of the Father, and with the Son, because of the Holy Spirit.
Oração:
Ó Deus e Pai de todas as nações e raças, obrigado pela sua garantia de que o Senhor trabalhará na minha vida através do Espírito Santo, e me levantará pelo poder do Seu Espírito para estar na Sua presença. No nome de Jesus eu oro. Amém. || Não perca a imagem de hoje! http://www.iluminalma.com/img/il_romanos8_11.html
My Prayer...
O God and Father of all nations and races, thank you for your Spirit who is my guarantee that you will raise me from the dead and empowers me right now. As I look forward to that great day, I know I will join Jesus in your presence forever. So, dear Father, I praise you in Jesus' name, and by the power of the Holy Spirit, I thank you as I anticipate that great day and live for you today. Amen.
