And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever. John 14:16

 Politicians, government officials, and even the wealthy, are usually surrounded by security guards. Their primary duty is to protect them from harm and guide them throughout the day. Those who work in the security industry know that at any moment their life might be at risk protecting the one they are paid to watch over.

 As children of God, we too have a security detail, the Holy Spirit. This Spirit is promised, by God, to everyone who receives Jesus Christ into their life. He provides wisdom and guidance for the Christian who weaves their way through each day. Although the Holy Spirit might not stop a bullet, or prevent an accident, (although He can do those things), He stands by the side of each of Jesus followers. I can say without hesitancy, the Holy Spirit has been active in my life by showing me God’s will and protecting me from things and people who’ve been tools in the hand of Satan, trying to weaken my faith and closeness with God.

 You might not be known by many, have very little money, and feel safer out of people’s view, but you are never alone to navigate life’s challenging moments. God’s Holy Spirit is right there with you to prevent complete catastrophe from happening. Look to God for His wisdom and voice of reason, through the activities of His Spirit residing in you, a follower and believer in Jesus Christ. Your protection detail will remain with you for all eternity. God bless!
