One time a child was lost and inquired the way home. <strong>He</strong> was informed which way to go: a<br />

number of blocks straight on, then several blocks to the left, and after that several blocks to the right.<br />

This was showing him the way. A policeman came along and said, "<strong>Come</strong> with me and I will take<br />

you to your home." <strong>He</strong> not only told the child the way, but he became the way and went with him<br />

all the way. So does the Holy Spirit to believers. <strong>He</strong> not only guides, but <strong>He</strong> goes with them all the<br />

way. We need to become very sensitive to His leadings.<br />

Some time ago two miners became lost in a mine because their lamps went out. They could not<br />

find their way out without some help. One miner said, "The breeze draws toward the opening of the<br />

mine; let us sit still and observe which way the wind blows, then we will follow it." They sat<br />

perfectly still and waited for a long time. Finally one miner said, "I have felt it." The other one said,<br />

"I didn't feel it. Which way did the breeze blow?" <strong>He</strong> answered, "This way. <strong>Come</strong>, let us follow its<br />

course." <strong>He</strong> did and they were led to the opening of the mine.<br />

In order to be guided into all truth, we need to wait and become perfectly still before the Spirit,<br />

expecting the heavenly breeze to influence and direct us in the way we should go.<br />

III. <strong>He</strong> Reveals the Things of Christ<br />

"<strong>He</strong> shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall show it unto you" (John 16:14).<br />

The Holy Spirit was infinitely acquainted with Christ, and <strong>He</strong> intelligently knows the purposes<br />

of the Lord. <strong>He</strong> dwelt in Christ and has been released to come back into the world to dwell in the<br />

believers. <strong>He</strong> takes the virtues and the qualities of Christ and imparts them to us. <strong>He</strong> desires to<br />

reproduce the life of Christ in and through us. One of the great ministries of the Holy Spirit is to<br />

reveal the things of Christ to us. No one is as well qualified to make Christ real to us as <strong>He</strong>. <strong>He</strong> can<br />

give us such a glorious vision of Christ that <strong>He</strong> will become the fairest One of ten thousand to our<br />

soul and the One Who is altogether lovely. <strong>He</strong> is able to reveal Christ to us so gloriously that we<br />

shall never cease to love Him, nor ever forsake Him, but be like many who have gone on before us,<br />

who were faithful even unto death and chose a martyr's death because they loved Christ. Many<br />

people fail and fall because they do not depend on the Holy Spirit to reveal Christ to them. To them<br />

<strong>He</strong> means little more than any other person, and when trials come, they will forsake their Saviour<br />

and fail to walk with Him. It is the privilege of all Christians to depend on the Holy Spirit, asking<br />

Him to reveal Christ to them and that <strong>He</strong> will show the things of Christ to them, until their souls will<br />

become so ravished and captivated by the love of Christ that it will constrain them to be faithful to<br />

Him at any cost.<br />

IV. <strong>He</strong> Brings the Words of Christ to Our Remembrance<br />

"But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall<br />

teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you"<br />

(John 14:26).<br />

The Holy Spirit not only can help our hearts and make them pure and holy, but <strong>He</strong> can also help<br />

our minds and our thinking, and direct them in right channels. <strong>He</strong> can help our heads as well as our
