John 14:26 (NKJV) 26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.
When the disciples had Christ with them, they learned how to do things. They learned His way, the right way.
After Christ was crucified, they needed to walk out what he taught them without Him beside them in person. But He didn’t leave them all alone. He had a Helper come and guide them through it all.
That Helper, the Holy Spirit, gave them a backbone to go on and do things they never thought they could do.
He gave them power and strength to be bold, and wisdom to know what to say at times.
They healed the sick and spread the gospel to the ends of the earth through the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
Acts 1:8 (NKJV) 8 But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”
Change came to the disciples when Christ was not with them any longer. But He sent them the Holy Spirit, and through Him much was accomplished as they continued to push forward.
They grew and matured and followed through, doing what was needed to faithfully run the race that was set before them.
2 Timothy 4:7 (NKJV) 7 I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.
Christ has made a way for us to do whatever He puts in front of us.
Don’t get discouraged when things change. Listen and watch. The answer is there.
He has made it possible for us to face whatever comes our way while we do what is meant for us to do here on this earth.
Do what it takes. Stay faithful. Finish the race before you.
