THE TRUE BREAD OF HEAVEN
TEACHING SERIES

THE MINISTRY OF THE HOLY SPIRIT (Part 11)

ANCHOR SCRIPTURE: Matthew 10:20 (NKJV)
“For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.”

Additional Scripture Reading: Exodus 4:10–12; Luke 12:11–12; Acts 4:8–13; 1 Corinthians 2:4–5; John 14:26

We continue with our series on the Ministry of the Holy Spirit.

Another vital ministry of the Holy Spirit is that He gives divine utterance when we need it.

Jesus assured His disciples that when they stood before authorities because of their testimony and were required to defend their faith, they should not be consumed with anxiety about what they would say. The Holy Spirit would give them the words to speak.

This principle also applies to our ministry of the Gospel. We must not depend merely upon human eloquence, intelligence, education, experience, or natural ability. We need the Holy Spirit.

When we surrender ourselves to Him, He can give us the right words, the right timing, and the spiritual power necessary to communicate Christ effectively. The words may come through our mouths, but the Holy Spirit is the One who supplies the divine utterance and brings conviction to the hearts of those who hear.

We see this demonstrated in the early church. When Peter and John stood before the rulers and elders, Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, spoke with such boldness and wisdom that those who heard them marvelled. Their confidence was not merely the product of human education or ability; they were vessels through whom the Holy Spirit spoke.

Therefore, child of God, never minister merely from your natural ability. Before you speak, yield to the Holy Spirit. Before you teach, preach, counsel, evangelize, or testify, depend upon Him.

There are moments when human wisdom will not be sufficient, but the Holy Spirit knows exactly what needs to be said. He knows the heart of the person listening, the need they carry, and the word that can bring light, conviction, encouragement, and transformation.

Depend upon the Holy Spirit for divine utterance.

We shall conclude this subject next Sunday, by God's grace, and thereafter commence our exploration of the Ministry of Angels.
