ANGLICAN COMMUNION DEVOTIONAL OUTLINE  FOR 2ND FEBRUARY 2024.

The earthly parents of Jesus Christ brought Him to the Temple in Jerusalem to:(1)present Him to the Lord, and (2)to offer a sacrifice, according to the Law of the Lord. A just and devout man called Simeon was led by the Holy Spirit to come into the Temple at that time. The Holy Spirit had already revealed to him that he would see Christ before his death.

When the parents brought in the child, Jesus, for the presentation ceremony, Simeon carried Jesus in his arms and spoke prophetically concerning his death, his ministry and His sacrificial death. The leading of the Holy Spirit is critical in the Christian’s life. His presence reveals the identity of the child of God (Eph. 4: 30). The Holy Spirit also guides Christians into all truth and gives them revelations.

As a Christian parent, you must strive to bring up your children in the fear and nurture of God (Prov. 22: 6). As a believer, you should seek to be filled and led by the Holy Spirit in all you do every day. Obedience to the Holy Spirit is the key to victorious Christian living.

PRAYER: Help me O Lord to be guided and controlled by the Holy Spirit today and every day in Jesus’ name. Amen.
