What does it truly mean to be prepared by the Spirit? This powerful exploration into 1 John 2:20 reveals that when we're born again, we're enrolled in a lifelong school where the Holy Spirit serves as our instructor. We discover three profound roles the Spirit plays in our lives: He reveals and corrects us, pointing out what needs to change; He leads and directs us like a divine highlighter, illuminating truth and bringing revelation knowledge when we need it most; and He guides and protects us, guarding us from error and deception. The message challenges a common misconception about verse 27—that we don't need teachers—by reminding us that the Spirit works through the gifts Christ gave the church while also dwelling within us as our internal compass. Perhaps most convicting is the reminder that we can grieve the Holy Spirit, not losing our salvation but potentially losing the tangible sense of His presence. The invitation is clear: if we want more of God's anointing in our lives, we must identify what grieves the Spirit and stop doing it. This isn't about becoming legalistic or weird; it's about cultivating sensitivity to the One who makes us alive and empowers us for our calling.
