A-Z Writing Challenge (H)

-

 Hey Folks!!  I hope you are all doing well today. I realized today that I have not been following my writing alphabet too well lol. The numbers are mixed up a tad bit and I left out the letter H and did O twice! It’s crazy…but i spent some time today writing out the words I have done and the corresponding letters, so I will not get mixed up again. So todays letter is the letter H and I chose to write on the Holy Spirit.


In the book of John in the scriptures, Jesus talks about the Holy Spirit as the helper. In the Greek it gives the word Paraclete which means that the Holy Spirit is our comforter and helper and some scriptures call him our Counsellor as well! In other words He can be our advocate. I love to look up definitions and it can give us more of a visual revelation…The biblical definition of advocate is a true calling to plead another’s cause. The Bible is full of stories about advocates who speak boldly and thus put that calling into action…so for us believers the Holy Spirit is our advocate.


The Holy Spirit has the capacity to indwell all believers to evangelize for the work of the ministry.  He also is the giver of gifts! Who does not love to receive gifts? That will be for another blog I'm sure! The main thing I wanted to reiterate is that He has been sent by our Father in Heaven to help us giving us grace and comfort.   


He is the prefect gentlemen but our sin greatly grieves the Holy Spirit!!  We should do our best not to offend God’s Spirit.


It you need help He is only a prayer away. Plus as He indwells us He gives us the empathy to help others.


My dear Jesus, Thank you or sending your advocate to us. Help us not to grieve you. Forgive us where we have and infuse your giftings within us. That we will use them to edify and encourage us in all things. Help us Holy Spirit we pray. In Jesus name, Amen.

This is my third book published since 2018!!!   The first two books were published by publishers that I know. The third book was written and published by me! I am so excited to bring to you, "Your Abiding Presence" poetry written and self-published by me of course.  I designed the cover and everything without much help. That means I did all the work myself... Thank you, Lana Scoggins, for coaching me at first and then allowing me to go to work with it!! I am so overwhelmed with God's grace and peace; this is a very difficult process being a self-publisher through KDP.   But God did it!!! Please if you feel led, order a copy of my second and third books here is s a link to them both. IF you do order a book, please rate me and leave a review on Amazon. It would be very much appreciated! Here is my author page that you can subscribe to for future books: https://www.amazon.com/author/richardthicks60 https://a.co/d/ew6j3TP To order Your Abiding Presence https://a.co/...

It’s not that Complicated

  There is nothing complicated about hell…in fact it is very easy to get there.    I can assure you it’s not one big party with lots of rock music and sex.  Who would want to actually feel hells torment without any grace, mercy or relief. I do not know about you but I do not wish to go there If you intend to take the easy street then by all means be prepared for continual weeping and gnashing of teeth and the torment of eternal fiery punishment. Hell is not a complicated choice!!  Who would want to go there?  I would never desire to go there willingly.   Jesus came to this earth he hung on that cross as a human being   He was God in the flesh. There is not  a whole lot of preaching these days about going hell…we need to hear more fiery sermons from pulpits on Sunday mornings!!! Unrepentant sinners.will all go to hell.  It’s high time we repented of all our sins, and ask God to forgive you of all sin. Sin is sin and Jesus desires us to be...

Unexpected Testimony

A True shepherd of his flock will go looking for those who have wondered away from the fold....and will bring him back in his arms.    Jesus is the truest shepherd I know... The pastor of the true church of GOD should "shepherd" his congregation who are the sheep.  Why are not more pastors checking on those who walk away from the church? Recently i was talking to a friend who has left his church....He has been going through a tough time but just now getting back on his spiritual feet.  He texted the pastors of that church with no response from any of the church leadership!! Folks, I just do NOT think that is the right approach, no matter how bad or bruised that person is or was at the time they left....Pastors and churches will be held accountable. I have been going to churches up here in Heber Springs Arkansas for almost two years. My brother has no problem going out of his way taking me to church, but you would think the people in the church were going to lose...
