 The Shepherd has effectively demonstrated the elevated status of His sheep to the wider world, providing them with compelling evidence of His attentive care. Through His displays of deep affection towards His flock, He has not only showcased their inherent worth to others, but also instilled within them a profound sense of trust and dependability. Furthermore, He has generously bestowed an abundant measure of His Spirit upon them, resulting in a remarkable outpouring of life-giving power.The bestowment of indescribable joy and glorious abundance has been granted to us. We are elevated to an unprecedented level of strength that surpasses our human comprehension. This spiritual immersion not only impacts our souls, but also shapes our physical training. The Spirit animates our bodies, enabling us to exhibit acts of faith, fortitude, and extraordinary capability. The Spirit is so pervasive in every aspect of our being that any manifestation of physical strength is imparted or withdrawn at His discretion.The Holy Spirit prepares us for combat and assists us in conquering our foes. Through divine wisdom, the Spirit imparts specific guidance pertaining to unique circumstances and provides insight through the gift of wisdom.The Spirit imbues us with a supernatural intuition, enabling us to anticipate future events more keenly. He guides us through all aspects of life, demonstrating the formidable power of the divine to overcome any obstacle. The Spirit blazes a trail ahead of us, clearing the path. He instills in us both a thirst for retributive justice against our adversaries and a longing for the divine love to permeate all corners of the cosmos.The Holy Spirit instills within us a yearning for the ultimate fulfillment of all things, where Christ reigns as the ultimate authority. This same Spirit motivates us to act, provides us with rest, and enables us to extend help to others beyond our capacity, thereby boosting our confidence in God's provision rather than relying solely on our own understanding. During our prayers, the Holy Spirit engulfs us and inspires us to seek out divine wisdom, ultimately leading us to a deeper understanding and appreciation of Christ's character.The act of prayer is taught by God through the provision of His prayers in the scripture and the imparting of wisdom regarding the proper manner in which to make a petition. The desired outcome of this form of supplication is the direct fulfillment of promises and the subsequent increased desire for Christ, which the Father eagerly anticipates.
