Prayer + The Holy Spirit - What An Awesome Duo

Miraculous claims of stain-cleaning power shouted at me from every can. I pondered all the choices, wondering how to choose the best one.

To my relief, hardly a soul graced the store at 8 in the morning as I, a usually dignified physician, scooted on my knees sideways down the aisle asking God about stain removers. Did He really care about something so insignificant? Would He be angry if I asked? Get Spirit-filled content delivered right to your inbox! Click here to subscribe to our newsletter. With a smidgen of faith and a mountain of self-consciousness, I placed my hand on top of a can of cleaner, closed my eyes and asked God, Is this the right one? I waited a few seconds. What was I expecting, thunder from heaven?

I moved on to the next.

As my hand rested on the fourth can a voice proclaimed, "That is the best stain remover. My eyes flew open. I heard it again. I turned toward the direction of the voice. Two frail-looking, white-haired women were ambling down the aisle toward me—not exactly my concept of angelic beings. I paused, my hand motionless on the can.

But as they passed behind me one of the duo declared for the third time, "That is the best stain remover.

That incident revolutionized shopping for me. If God cared about a carpet stain, would it be OK to seek His wisdom for other purchases?

Who is the Holy Spirit?

I needed to buy shoes for our daughter, for instance. What was the harm in asking?

God is omniscient; He would know where to find the perfect fit. After all, nothing rivaled trying to find shoes for Amelia's narrow feet. Her pint-sized patience evaporated in seconds, catalyzing an avalanche of anger in store after store as she tried on dozens of shoes, only to leave empty-handed. Since binding her feet was not an option, I despaired at shoe shopping with her.

This, however, was a new day.

Before clambering into the car together, we asked God to show us where to purchase her new shoes. As we waited expectantly, a certain store came to my mind. Would we really find the right fit on our first try? God has something for you to do that you are exactly suited for, just like one piece of the puzzle fits into the rest. He is depending on you to do your part so that He can make everything fit together perfectly according to His plan. Don't be afraid of change if it is God who is telling you to do it. He knows how to bring out the best in your life and wants to achieve things through you that you have never imagined.

No matter how you started out in this life, you have the ability to choose to make a new ending. God can look far into your future and lead you to make wonderful choices to have peace and fulfillment.

I now surrender to You my ideas, my limitations, my preferences, and my goals. Fill me, Holy Spirit, with all Your supernatural gifts! Empower me to accept and grow in the supernatural life as much as the early disciples did. I want to be useful to You. I want to go where You lead me. Come, Holy Spirit; renew me. Thanks for the beautiful reflection as well as for the link to the Prayers to the Holy Spirit. I saw this link about a year ago, printed it and use it very often during my prayers.

Let me share a little on this subject. My wife and I were in quite a bad spiritual state practically anti-God when we were told that we could not have a child. The Lord in his mercy drew us to a prayer meeting where there were testimonies by people from various faiths including some priests and leaders from the local Charismatic Renewal. We listened in particular to two gentlemen, a father and son.

Their testimony was so powerful and it touched us so much that I went forward to be prayed over when the call was given and was prayed over by the older gentleman mentioned earlier. It was such a dramatic experience that it gives me shivers even when I think of it today, 30 years later.
