The Lord Jesus told His disciples that it was advantageous for Him to go back to The Father because the Comforter, the Holy Spirit would then come and dwell within them, teach them the truth, encourage, them, and reveal the will of the Father to them. The word Comforter in the original language means: Counselor, Helper, Advocate, Intercessor, Strengthener, and Standby. Wow, by His grace, the Holy Spirit now dwells within us and is all that in our lives (John 16:7). The more we look to our problems and issues, the less we allow the Holy Spirit to be our comforter. However, when we decide to strengthen our relationship with Him, He will reveal His love to us in all of these various manifestations (Comforter, Counselor, Helper, Advocate, Intercessor, Strengthener, and Standby). Decide today to shift your focus to the One who dwells within you. There is so much He wants to teach you. Let the relationship begin!
John 16:7 (Amplified version) “However, I am telling you nothing but the truth when I say it is profitable (good, expedient, advantageous) for you that I go away. Because if I do not go away, the Comforter (Counselor, Helper, Advocate, Intercessor, Strengthener, Standby) will not come to you [into close fellowship with you]; but if I go away, I will send Him to you [to be in close fellowship with you]
Amen amen
