As parents we know how to give the best gifts possible to our children. We understand that our families deserve the very best and we try our best to go out of our way to provide it to them. God as our heavenly father knows how to give the very best to us he has given us the Holy Spirit; his most intimate part of him. The Holy Spirit is the third person of the trinity. He is has several titles by which he is known as, such as, the counselor, comforter, guide, God’s power and more. The Holy Spirit is the means by which many other gifts from God come by and these excel from anything known to man; they are supernatural gifts.
If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
Many if not most of us; believers and nonbelievers, come to God in prayer and ask and many times we get what we ask for. Some things come to us naturally; God provides for us naturally, for example, Jesus said that just as the birds of the air are fed by God he takes care of us (Mat.6:26). God’s natural providence is for all of us, but his divine providence are for those with His Holy Spirit. Once God indwells in us his Holy Spirit; his ultimate gift, supernatural providence begins to occur (1Cor.12:4). A good gift can come from anyone especially from God, but a perfect gift only comes from God above (Ja.1:17). Divine gifts from God affect the four main areas of our lives just as natural gifts do like physically, materially and emotionally, but with the divine gifts something supernatural happens. For example, we all love to eat and with out it we would not survive and in the times of Elijah God caused these ravens to bring Elijah food for many days in fact for three years (1Kg. 17:4). Also, when Peter was confronted by the tax collectors about Jesus paying tax and Jesus sends Peter to fish, because that was where he was going to find the money to pay for the tax (Mt.17:27) of which he did.
God’s emotional providence is inexplicably sound it only happens at any given moment. For example, an unusual manifestation of happiness comes over without any stimulate just that one probably felt a little sad or uneasy. For instance, after Paul and Silas were unjustly beaten and thrown into a dingy jail with mud and all kinds of critter swarming around them and with all their open wounds and pain the scripture says that they sang and praised the Lord (Acts 16: 25). This singing and praise God in the midst of pain and suffering was manifestation of God’s emotional providence supernaturally. As Peter and John went to pray a certain paralyzed man who was begging for money received a supernatural healing (Act 3:6-7) from them. This man whom the Lord healed using Peter and John received divine providence in two folds first he was healed physically and then emotionally; he began to leap for joy and praise the Lord. Once one has received the gift of the Holy Spirit all the other gifts will come supernaturally, but one needs to ask; sure you can ask for a new car, job healing etc…, but nothing is compared to the gift of the Holy Spirit by which every other gift proceeds in a supernatural fashion.
