The Spirit of God represents the breath that Elohim breathed into man that made man a living soul. The breath of God is capable of resurrecting all things that are dead.
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.
Genesis 1:1-2 (NKJV)
Have you ever stopped to consider the power of the Spirit of God? It has been present since the beginning of time, actively participating in the creation of the world. God commanded, “Let there be light,” and the Spirit of God brought forth light from darkness. This same creative power continues to operate through the Spirit of God, bringing forth all things.
The Spirit of God is the foundation of all other spirits, attracting and drawing them towards itself like a magnet. When filled with the Spirit of God, we have everything we need to pursue our life’s purpose confidently and clearly. The Spirit of God creates our life path, and we are guided into God’s will for our lives. With God’s creative Spirit within us, we can confidently pursue our life’s purpose, knowing we are on the right path.
In Exodus 31 and 35, Bezalel was filled with the Spirit of God and all other spirits, enabling him to create beautiful works of art for God’s glory. And just like Bezalel, we can tap into this same power and creativity. So, if you are unsure about your direction in life or struggling to find the inspiration to create something new, turn to the Spirit of God. Trust in its power to guide you towards greatness, and let it fill you with the creativity and inspiration you need to fulfil your calling. With the Spirit of God within you, there’s no limit to what you can achieve.
Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: “See, I have called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah. And I have filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, in understanding, in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship, to design artistic works, to work in gold, in silver, in bronze, in cutting jewels for setting, in carving wood, and to work in all manner of workmanship.
Exodus 31:1-5(NKJV)
Throughout scripture, when God wants to build or establish anything, He first pours out His Spirit to enable people to do what they have been called.
Come and listen to my counsel. I’ll share my heart with you and make you wise.
Proverbs 1:23 (NLT)
1 Cor 2:11 tells us that only the Spirit of God knows the intent of God, and by having the Spirit in you, you can and will know the intent of God regarding everything that concerns you and others.
For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God.
1 Corinthians 2:11(NKJV)
When David was called out from amongst his brothers by Prophet Samuel, the Bible tells us in 1 Samuel 16 that the Spirit of God came upon him after Samuel anointed him.
Then Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the midst of his brothers; and the Spirit of the Lord came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel arose and went to Ramah.
1 Samuel 16:13(NKJV)
I believe that the Spirit of God commissioned David to be filled with confidence to slay the giant, and ultimately, the Spirit of God made him the greatest king who ever lived.
Isn’t it amazing that Jesus humbly walked the earth and sought baptism from John the Baptist before embarking on His ministry? And guess what? During this incredible event, the Spirit of God descended on Him in the form of a dove, and God the Father affirmed Him! How awesome is that?
After Jesus was baptized, He came up immediately out of the water; and behold, the heavens were opened, and he (John) saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove and lighting on Him (Jesus),
Matthew 3:16 (AMP)
In the book of Acts, the disciples were gathered in a room when suddenly a mighty wind entered and filled them with the Holy Spirit. The Spirit of God gave Peter the ability and power to preach the good news, converting over 3000 people to Christianity. This event marked the inception of the Church.
I have discovered that God does not start anything unless he fills men and women with His Spirit to empower them to perform the good works of God.
