You Need Help To Succeed - Friday Faith Foundations

Do you avoid asking for help? Perhaps asking for help makes you feel uncomfortable. Even if you don't want to ask another person for help, you have a guide and help is available to you from the Holy Spirit. You need help to succeed. As humans, we are not meant to live, work, and do things alone. And most people enjoy helping others. Data suggests that when people help others, we are more likely to be successful ourselves. The Bible reminds us that we need help to succeed One of my favorite verses in the Bible that emphasizes our need for help as humans is Ecclesiastes 4:9-12. It reads, "Two are better than one because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up. Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone? Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken." In the New Testament, we were given the gift of the Holy Spirit as our counselor, helper, and guide. A gift not to be taken lightly. Jesus even told the disciples that someone greater than He would be coming to help them. Can you imagine the humility of Jesus? Someone greater than Him! As believers, we are truly blessed to have the triune God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We are never alone. Always have help. In John 16:13 we learn "But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come."   You need help to succeed, that's why we have the Holy Spirit If we didn't need help, would Jesus have given the Holy Spirit to us? He knew that life would be challenging, too challenging to bear on our own accord. Similar to the disciples, we live in a world that can easily persuade us to run, hide from our faith, and remain silent instead of witnessing. It's much easier to fly under the radar than to proclaim our faith. Likewise, it's often easier to do what we think is best instead of asking God for direction. The Holy Spirit has a way of waking us up and helping us realize we need Him.  Schedule a free consultation with me at: https://bit.ly/discoverwithRobyn. There's no obligation.
