Hosting God’s Presence: Declarations

Hosting the Holy Spirit Declarations

Many of us treasure the presence of the Holy Spirit to abide in us. There is nothing as precious as hosting the presence of the Spirit of God in our lives. But hosting the Holy Spirit requires a heart that seeks to please God and an earnest desire to keep your eyes, ears, mind, and body from a sinful lifestyle. After all, the Holy Spirit can only stay in a clean heart.

John the Baptist was told by the Spirit of God that the person on whom the Holy Spirit descends and remains is the person who will baptize with the Holy Spirit. Click here to read the passage on Jesus Christ hosting the Holy Spirit.

 In the Old Testament, the Holy Spirit visited select persons from time to time. Whereas in the New Testament, after Jesus Christ’s crucifixion and resurrection, He sent the Holy Spirit for all disciples of Jesus Christ—which includes all of us.

Presence of God and rest

Presence of God and rest

We like to rest. We love breaks when we study and even when we work. We wait for weekends and holidays so we can have some rest.

But as a Christian, we can choose to rest any time, any day of the week. Yes, this is true. This depends precisely on what we choose to think and where we consider ourselves to be. 

Exodus 33:14 has a very powerful key to rest. The verse is given below as per a few different verses of the Bible. You can read that this is an assurance from God to Moses.

And He said, “My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” (NKJV)

Declarations for a deeper relationship with the Holy Spirit

Here are a few declarations based on Paul’s Epistle to the Romans, Chapter 8 and others from other parts of the Bible. These declarations will help you build a relationship with the Holy Spirit. Jesus said, it’s good that He was going to the Heavenly Father so that the Holy Spirit can be sent. The Holy Spirit reminds us about the teachings of Jesus Christ. This enables us to speak and do things that bring Heaven down. Sin and sinful circumstances flee. The Holy Spirit helps us to be transformed into the image of Jesus Christ.
