Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do, he will do also; and greater works than these he will do; because I go to the Father. Whatever you ask in My name, that will I do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask Me anything in My name, I will do it.

 He will come to you:

           

John 14:12-18

12 “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do, he will do also; and greater works than these he will do; because I go to the Father.

13 “Whatever you ask in My name, that will I do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

14 “If you ask Me anything in My name, I will do it.

15 “If you love Me, you will keep My commandments.

16 “I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may be with you forever;

17 that is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not see Him or know Him, but you know Him because He abides with you and will be in you.

18 “I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you.

 

            Jesus sent us another Helper of a type just like Himself. Of course, this was the Holy Spirit. He is also a Comforter just like Jesus. We didn’t get some cheap imitation Prada. We got the real deal. He is to be with us for ever. He told the disciples that He wouldn’t leave them as orphans; that He would come to them. They too didn’t want a cheap imitation. They had had the real deal in Jesus. He came to them and He came to us when we made Him Lord of our lives. He is with us and will never leave us.

           

If you could hear God speak to you, I believe this is what He would say:

            "I am for you, My children. I have longed for you to be with Me; but there is much to be done before that can happen. For now you will have to be content with My Spirit. He will be with you and guide you into all the Truth. He will show you what is yet to be done before you can join Me. I have a lot to talk with you about and I am longing for it to begin. Trust in Me and listen attentively to My Spirit. He will guide you into all the Truth; not just what others tell is true, but what I tell you is Truth. You will soon be with Me and we shall rejoice forever. Come unto Me and receive of Me what comfort you need. There is much to do and little time to do it in.”

 

            45. Jesus came to me and will remain with me forever. I will never be alone.

 

            This is our destiny … Jesus inside us and Jesus in the midst of us. Wherever we go, He goes. Whatever we need done, He does. We don’t have to get good enough to earn His presence in our lives or to earn His working in our lives. It is part of our destiny. We can’t make it happen. We can only prevent it from happening
