Just a picture that I took recently. |
Jesus obviously followed the direction of the Spirit - even to such a place and conditions as that.
Jesus cast out demons by the Holy Spirit's power: "But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you." Matthew 12:28
"And Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and news about Him spread through all the surrounding district." Luke 4:14. Jesus is being led by the Spirit here as well.
The Holy Spirit was active in Jesus' resurrection: "But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you." Romans 8:11
The Holy Spirit helped the apostles as He glorified Christ: "But when He, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth; for He will not speak on His own initiative, but whatever He hears, He will speak; and He will disclose to you what is to come. He will glorify Me, for He will take of Mine and will disclose it to you." John 16:13 & 14
The Holy Spirit was obviously very involved in the earthly work of Christ.

So true Abbi, the Holy Spirit was at work in Christ, as it must be in our own lives, if we are to be overcomers. Love the picture that you took! It is very pretty and serene :)
Yes! Overcomers through Jesus Christ and His Spirit working in our lives! That is so wonderful to think about and to see happening in our lives!
