Dear Friends of "Dial Daily Bread":
Our little “lesson book” on the Holy Spirit ended yesterday with #13. It’s been studied around the world by millions of people who want to follow Jesus. This deep question was asked:
“What evidence to you see of the influence of the Holy Spirit upon those who are not Christians?” What is the Holy Spirit doing for a world where Jesus is still being rejected and crucified, where His holy law is disregarded?
Think of the simplest little elementary blessing you enjoy—that is “evidence of the influence of the Holy Spirit.” You are thirsty, you turn the tap, there is water; thank the Source whence all your blessings flow. Water is great!
You hunger for some bread; it’s at hand; the market’s open.
You drive down the street to or from work; 99.9% plus of the drivers coming at you keep on their side. Thank God! Their motivation may be purely fear, but it’s a blessing that fear can keep some semblance of order in this world. Jesus said, “I have come that they [we] may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly” (John
The only decent thing we can do is to say “Thank You!” and stop resisting the constraint of His love that would motivate us to give our self-sacrificing service to Him and our fellow-men (2 Cor. 5:14, 15).
And oh yes, let’s read Revelation 7:1-4 and realize why World War III hasn’t come.... yet. There again is evidence of the Holy Spirit’s work. Rejoice!
