Every disciple of our Lord Jesus knows that we must be led by the Holy Spirit and operate in His power. However, there are many people who claim to operate in that power of the Holy Spirit, but are obviously doing it for monetary gain or self-promotion. Our Lord Jesus taught about the Holy Spirit before He ascended into heaven. To understand the Holy Spirit and His work, we must examine His words. In John 14:16-17, Jesus promises to ask the Father to give us another Comforter. Our Lord Jesus was the first comforter (2 Corinthians 1:3-4), but He made sure we have another comforter when He left. The Comforter stays with us until the end. In John 14:26, Jesus says that the Comforter, which is the Holy Spirit, will teach us all things and bring all things to our remembrance, whatsoever He has said to us. In John 15:26, He says that the Holy Spirit will testify of Him. In John 16:7-8, Jesus states that the Holy Spirit will reprove the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment. The Holy Spirit makes us uncomfortable with sin, spurs us to live a righteous life, and reminds us that judgment is coming because Jesus is coming again. In John 16:13-15, Jesus says that the Holy Spirit will guide us into all truth, and will glorify Him. He will not speak of himself, but will speak whatever He hears, and will show us things to come. We can understand the Holy Spirit better through these verses. We do not need to seek people who claim to be men of God and work in the power of the Holy Spirit. We must be filled with the Holy Spirit ourselves. No work of the Holy Spirit is for the glorification of individuals or even the Holy Spirit himself, but for the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ alone. We should pay attention to the fruit as a whole and see who's face gets the glory. It is important to keep in mind that the Holy Spirit does not take selfies, meaning He does not seek to glorify Himself, but instead He focuses on glorifying Jesus and working through us to be Christ's witness. He will guide us, teach us, and work through us. May we seek to understand the Holy Spirit better by studying the teachings of Jesus in the book of John. May we have faith in Jesus' words and believe that we have the Holy Spirit indwelling us and empowering us to become Christ's witness. Remember, the Holy Spirit does not take selfies, He works for the glory of Jesus and the salvation of humanity.
