I WILL SEND YOU A HELPER

Ch. 3 I WILL SEND YOU A HELPER

"And I will pray that the father, and He will give another Helper, that may abide with you forever" John 14:16

In most all movies you have main character and their sidekicks, without the sidekick there wouldn't be the main character. Just like Batman without Robin, Fred Flintstone without Barney, and so on. Just the movies the bible, they were duos like Moses had Aaron. David had Johnathon. Paul had Barnabas. But Aaron, Johnathon, and Barnabas didn't get the attention like their friends. Without them, the heroes of Scripture would have been very lonely. The heroes needed helpers to care, share secrets, and just someone they can listen to. They needed friends, a confidant, and a HELPER.

In Mark 1:8 " I indeed baptized you with water, but He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit"
Just like John the baptizer need a helper as he baptize the followers. He would baptize them in the water but Jesus was the one who can baptize believers with the Holy Spirit.

In John 16:7 "Nevertheless I tell the truth. It is your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send Him to you."
That just means that Jesus said that unless He left, the spirit could not be sent. When Jesus returned to his Father, He could send the Helper to them.

Our invaluable gift is the Holy Spirit(helper) according to John 14:26 " The helper, the Holy Spirit , whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and brings to your remembrance all things that I said to you."

In John 14:16 "And I will pray the father, and he will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you FOREVER. " In that Jesus promised that the helper with be with us FOREVER. That's amazing that we will always have someone to always be there our own HELPER.

I know some as kids we all had nicknames like my were and still are lulu, boo boo, lineykay, and so on I had so many growing up just like God nickname is Helper. God is our helper and the Holy Spirit was sent to be a Helper.

Helper can be defined in one word LORD but Psalms 54:4 "See, God will help me. The Lord will support me.

This is MY FAVORITE SCRIPTURES: "I'M NOT AFRAID CAUSE THE LORD IS MY HELPER. PEOPLE CANT DO ANYTHING TO ME" Hebrews 13:6 We should be bold about this. Stand up for what is right and the truth cause nothing can hurt you if you have your HELPER on your side.

I pray tonight that God our helper will be at Jason's side to pull him out of this rough path of his journey to heal the pain that is in his body to get that stupid graph vs host out so he can live a normal life with his family. Amen.

If you want to dig deeper in the bible go to these Scriptures:

Psalm 22:19

Psalm 35:2

Psalm 70:5

Psalm 86:5

This week my trinket is a superhero mask-to remind me that the best heroes travel in duos. Without a sidekick, the superhero would lead a lonely life. That constant companion becomes someone to trust, to understand, to listen, to care, and to share secrets. The Holy Spirit is our own closest companion-a friend, a confidant, and a helper. I hope everyone considers that God is their sidekick and without him we will live a lonely life.
