But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you (John 14:26).

I was driving down the interstate feeling discouraged from an appointment I had just had. Seems that a former employee's company was now seeking to displace me and my company as their source for our services. It had been one of many difficult events during those months. As I was driving down the interstate, some words popped into my mind...."no weapon formed against you shall prosper." I could not tell you where those words came from other than I knew the Holy Spirit was speaking them to me. I knew they were in the Bible. I knew they were in the Old Testament.

When I returned to my office that day I looked up the key words in my concordance and found the verse. "No weapon forged against you will prevail, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you" (Isaiah 54:17).

Jesus said that the Holy Spirit would remind us of the things He desires us to know. There are times in our lives when the Holy Spirit speaks into our spirit words designed to encourage us or give us what we need at the moment. That is just one of the roles of the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer. The more you know the Word of God the more often you'll recall verses the Holy Spirit will bring to mind for a given situation. Study the Word of God and allow the Holy Spirit to remind you of the things He desires you to know.
