Christian renewal and church revival are common prayer requests. Often we hear messages that inspire us to be and to do differently. But to step out and make the changes necessary is another story entirely. Fear and busy-ness stay in our way. But if you could get over that like Rai Benjamin in the Olympic hurdles, you would find the possibility to push reset in your life.

Don’t you wish you had a reset button in life? Just one little click and everything would be refreshed, and you would get a chance to start over. There are no such buttons in real life, but God does offer us the ability to stop and reset our priorities. Many of us just don’t feel like we have the time to do it. But it is so necessary that maybe we should stop now and push reset.

One of the chief roles of the Holy Spirit is to glorify Christ. This is pictured beautifully in the Book of Revelation where the Holy Spirit is said to be like seven lamps of fire before the throne of God in heaven; the purpose of those lamps, the purpose of the Holy Spirit is to cast light – to spotlight – the Person of Christ. He is doing that today through the life of the Christian.

The Holy Spirit has been called the Helper, the Comforter, the Spirit of Glory, the Spirit of Grace, and other great titles. In our passage today, Jesus calls Him the Spirit of Truth, meaning that He will guide believers into all truth. Today we want to take a look at the way the Holy Spirit works in the life of a Christian.

The role of the Holy Spirit cannot be overemphasized. For too long, among us Baptists, we have understated His role. Without Him, however, we would never have come to Christ, we would never find lasting comfort, and we would have no choice but to succumb to the world’s pressures. Don’t resist the Holy Spirit; Jesus has sent Him to be your Helper.

At the end of John 16, Jesus encourages His disciples by telling them, “In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” That statement in the last verse is a synopsis of this whole chapter. As you will hear from the first third of this chapter, Jesus tells His disciples how and why they will face so much trouble, but the presence of His Holy Spirit will see them through.

We Christians want to be used by God. We want to be His vessel, His tool, His servant. Sometimes those opportunities for usefulness take us by surprise, and we don’t think that we are ready. But the God who is sovereign over all things may just have you right where He wants you at just the right time. Look around you. Is someone hurting? Is someone in need? Is someone lost? Maybe this is your Divine Appointment.

A Divine Appointment is when God orchestrates a meeting between one of His witnesses and a lost person He desires to save. This appointment may be news to both the witness and the lost person, but God has arranged it nonetheless. To the surprise of both, that lost person may find salvation. Wouldn’t you want to be a part of something like that? Ask God, then, to set you up a Divine Appointment.
