The Holy Spirit is the breath from the mouth of the Father who gives us life. “I will put my spirit in you that you may live, and I will settle you upon your land; thus you shall know that I am the LORD. I have promised, and I will do it, says the LORD.” (Ez 37:14 NAB)
This is the work of the Holy Spirit: Resurrecting, taking from the mud what is without life. “And if the Spirit of him that raised Christ from among the dead lives in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwells within you.” (Romans 8:11)
The Holy Spirit sent by the Father resurrected Jesus from among the dead. Jesus who, because of our sins, lay in the tomb. The Lord wants to put in us this same Spirit. In the situation in which we live, with great or small problems, situations that bind us, that discourage us, stopping us dead. the Holy Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead will raise us!
Be certain that “Your dead will raise”: his marriage, his family, and all your loves ones will resurrect. But it is necessary that you proclaim the Word of God. The Lord is investing the same Spirit that raised Jesus from among the dead.
God bless you,
