The Holy Spirit Reminds Us of Yeshua
(Jn14:26)

God is love (1Jn4:8).
He gives Himself for those whom He loves (Gal2:20) and
He prepares an eternal dwelling place for them (Jn14:2).
 
Faith is being moved by His love and loving Him, and
The life of this faith is thinking of Yeshua every moment and living by remembering His word.
 
The ones people think of the most are their loved ones and
The words that they remember the longest are those of their loved ones
So their will would be remembered for a long time.
With time, however, they become faint and eventually fade away, which is a sad reality.
 
The Bible, comprised of the Old Testament and the New Testament, is
The testament of God given to those whom He loves.
 
Israel was called the holy people of God (Dt14:21) for
They were a people with a holy remembrance (Ps97:12).
Their year consisted of an array of feasts which
Reminded them of the fact that the LORD God was their Redeemer (Ps78:35) for
He redeemed them while they were slaves in Egypt (Dt15:15),
Rescued them from the hands of all their enemies on every side (Jdg8:34), and
Led them all the way in the wilderness for 40 years (Dt8:2) and
Gave them the ability to produce wealth (Dt8:18, 24:17-18, 32:7).
 
In spite of the fact that in their midst was
The sanctuary where the name of Jehovah was, a reminder for generations (Ex3:15; 2Ch6:5),
Israel was destroyed for they forgot the LORD and served other gods (Is46:8-9; Jer13:25) and
Even built monuments for themselves (1Sa15:12; 2Sa18:18).
 
Yeshua said, “Destroy this temple and I will raise it again in three days,” because
Through the suffering, the death and the resurrection of the temple of His body (Mt16:21; Jn2:19),
He would let souls remember the Father’s eternal name of Yeshua (Jn5:43),
The works He did in His name and the Father’s words, that is, His words (Jn14:24).
 
As He died, He said, “It is finished” (Jn19:30), declaring that He:
1)     Died according to the Father’s command and enforced His will (Jn10:18; He9:16-17);
2)     Judged the devil who caused men to forget the word of God (Ge3:4-6); and
3)     Gave His flesh and blood for the forgiveness of sin to all souls whom He loves (Mt26:26; Lk22:19-20).
 
While the stone, the seal and the soldiers before the grave were all
The efforts for the world to forget Him,
Yeshua broke through the grave and resurrected and ascended to heaven.
He eternally bears the marks on His body as the memory of His death.
 
The Holy Spirit whom He sent is
The Spirit who remembers the suffering of Yeshua.
He lets the souls saved by the blood of Yeshua
Remember the name of Yeshua, who in their place
Endured the suffering, pains, shame, contempt on the cross (Tit2:14).
Furthermore, He reminds them of the words of Yeshua (Jn14:26), His last outcry from the cross.
 
The man of the Spirit is he who is
Moved by the love of God (Mt27:46) that forgave the sins of all men (Lk23:34) and
Prepared paradise for anyone who seeks to enter (Lk23:43).
To be a soul received by God on that last day (Lk23:46)
He clings to the Bible which Yeshua confirmed (Jn19:28),
Loves his brothers and sisters made by the blood of Yeshua (Jn19:26-27) and
Goes to the ends of the earth to make disciples of all nations (Mt28:19-20) so that
They may know the love of God (Jn15:12-13; 1Jn4:10).
 
O Lord,
Every hour, every minute, every second…
Let me remember only Yeshua and only the words of Yeshua! Amen.
