the Holy Spirit: the Holy Spirit as Intercessor

the Holy Spirit: the Holy Spirit as Intercessor by ric gustafson


According to Romans 8, the Holy Spirit intercedes for God's people in accordance with the will of God. Even though the Holy Spirit lives in us, we have pain. Pain is a part of everyday life. Pain leads to weakness. The Apostle Paul had his own affliction. Sickness saps our energy. Our prayers become moans.
What does it mean to intercede?. It means to stand in between. Intercession happens when a strong person takes up the cause of a weak one. The Holy Spirit is our advocate. The Holy Spirit pleads to God on our behalf. The Holy Spirit groans for us. The Holy Spirit prays for us.
God, the Son and the Holy Spirit loves us more than anything else.
