Life in the Spirit (20 Minutes with God)

The work of the Holy Spirit in our lives is far more vast and inclusive than even most long-time Christians realize. Yes, he serves as our divine counselor and guide, and as our mediator in prayer, but did you also know that he helps you resist temptation and use your spiritual gifts effectively? That he moves you to extend love and grace to others? That he provides you with wisdom and inner assurance of salvation? That he deepens your understanding of and openness to Scripture? This book is a poignant study of these very truths for Christians who are seeking to deepen their knowledge of God with small, daily doses of solid insight and on-target application. Suited for both personal and group use--with reflections at the end of each day's reading--Life in the Spirit encourages you to delve into the Scriptures as you learn about the specific work of the Holy Spirit. These 30 daily devotionals from one of Christianity's most respected names are a great starting point to inspire and instruct you in living a Spirit-filled life. As J.I. Packer suggests, "Use them as a springboard or trampoline before the Lord. Bounce on them, bounce off them, and see how high your heavenly Father enables you to go."
