2 Corinthians 3:17
Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is present, there is freedom.
The week, we want to see clearly how the Holy Spirit works within us to lead us to Jesus and glorify Jesus. The Holy Spirit is our great Advocate—our helper, our witness, our guide, our power. As we turn ourselves over to Him, He will fill us with the Life of Christ Himself, full of truth, goodness and glory.
