You, God, are my God, earnestly I seek you; I thirst for you, my whole being longs for you, in a dry and parched land where there is no water. I have seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your power and your glory. Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you. I will praise you as long as I live, and in your name I will lift up my hands. I will be satisfied as with the richest of foods; with singing lips my mouth will praise you. On my bed I remember you; I think of you through the watches of the night. Because you are my help, I sing in the shadow of your wings. I cling to you; your right hand upholds me.  _— Psalm 63: 1-8_

Humble yourselves before God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come close to God, and God will come close to you. Wash your hands, you sinners; purify your hearts, for your loyalty is divided between God and the world. _— James 4:7-8_

May my prayer be set before you like incense; may the lifting up of my hands be like the evening sacrifice. _— Psalm 141:2_

*🔥 How to Never Grieve the Holy Spirit* The Holy Spirit is a person whom we can grieve with our actions. Here are a few ways that we can learn to protect our relationship with Him. ⚠️ *Ways We Often Grieve the Holy Spirit* Apostle Paul states in Ephesians 4:30, *“Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.”* In Greek, the word *“grieve”* means to cause grief, to be in heaviness, or to throw into sorrow. 1️⃣ *When We Hold On to Hurt Feelings* 😔 Ephesians 4:31 says, *“Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice.”* Holding on to hurt feelings grieves the Holy Spirit. When you nurse a grudge, it turns into bitterness and wrath, producing anger that can damage your relationship. 2️⃣ *When Our Speech is Morally Rotten* 🗣️💬 Ephesians 4:29 says, *“Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth.”* The word *“corrupt”* refers to something like rotten fish 🐟 or fruit 🍂. Morally rotten speech includes curse words, exaggeration, half-truths, and deception. When our language becomes foul, it grieves the Holy Spirit. If you’re not careful, this grieves Him just as much as negative emotions do. 3️⃣ *When We Are Rude to People* 😡🚫 Ephesians 4:32 says, *“Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another.”* Being rude to others grieves the Holy Spirit. It’s not just what we say, but how we treat others that matter to God. ✅ *How Not to Grieve the Holy Spirit* 📖 *Know the Word of God* The Holy Spirit is the *Spirit of truth*. Psalm 119:11 says, *“Your word I have hidden in my heart, that I may not sin against You.”* If you want to avoid grieving Him, hide God’s Word in your heart. ❤️ *Check Your Heart Against Offence* Guard your heart regularly. Offense and bitterness can build up, creating a hardness in your spirit. 🛡️ Regularly examine your heart to ensure purity, especially toward your brothers and sisters. 🗣️ *Season Your Speech with Truth and Grace* Ensure your words are full of both *truth and grace*. Some speak harsh truths without grace ⚔️, while others speak sweet words without truth 🍯. Both grieve the Holy Spirit. Your words should always be *wholesome and honest*, without deceit or exaggeration. ⚡ *Be Prompt to Obey* When the Holy Spirit prompts you, *obey quickly*. Abraham acted promptly when God asked him to sacrifice Isaac. When you *delay obedience*, you risk missing the Spirit’s timing. ⏳ 🙏 *Pray Together with the Holy Spirit* Include the Holy Spirit in your prayers. Fellowship with Him and take time to ask Him to *guide your prayer life*. The Holy Spirit wants to *comfort, guide, and reveal Jesus* to you. He is *near, living in you*. Acknowledge Him, invite Him, and let Him *fill you daily*. Your life can be transformed when you truly *know the Holy Spirit as a Person*. ✨🔥
