INFLUENCER

1/3/20

As I meditated and thought about us entering a new era for a while I heard a very interesting word. The word was INFLUENCER. Now I know this has been a trend and buzz term for a minute.  But I didn't think of the word INFLUENCER based on society's terms. After hearing that word my mind immediately went to the scripture of Jesus speaking of the Holy Spirit.

In John 16:7 and 13 it says, "But I tell you the truth, it is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the [a]Helper (Comforter, Advocate, Intercessor—Counselor, Strengthener, Standby) will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him (the Holy Spirit) to you [to be in close fellowship with you]. "

"But when He, the Spirit of Truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth [full and complete truth]. For He will not speak on His own initiative, but He will speak whatever He hears [from the Father—the message regarding the Son], and He will disclose to you what is to come [in the future]."

The Holy Spirit has always been the greatest INFLUENCER which is defined as one who exerts influence : a person who inspires or guides the actions of others.

I believe in this new era the true INFLUENCER will be recognized,  acknowledged and obeyed like never before. People will learn to hear Him before others.  People will obey Him over others. People will be lead by Him and directed by Him. In some aspects systems have replaced Him but in this era He will be in His rightful place. This will cause disruptions, transitions, decisions, corrections and directions many weren't expecting.

This will impact individuals,  families,  churches and systems. Too many have lorded over what and who belongs to the Lord. This will bring liberation,  freedom and exploitation as many discover God's plan and purpose for their lives which had been clouded by men and their agendas.

People will not just hear but they will respond for the Truth Speaker will cause a flame to burn in them which cannot be quenched by men but is fueled by God to do the will of Him that sent them. Liberty with come with this Truth. Freedom will come with this Truth. Destiny will come with this Truth. Life will come with this Truth.

In this new era allow the Holy Spirit to be the ultimate INFLUENCER in your life and decisions.
