Last Thursday at Lifegroup (Small Group), we studied Romans 8. We focused mostly on a particular verse that I thought to be very strong and meaningful.
In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.(Romans 8:26)
The verse simply implies that when we are in situations that we have absolutely no words for, or perhaps when there is too much emotional hurt and pain involved to the point that we can not even pray to God because we have no words to say, His spirit will be interceding for us.
Since Thursday I have been in situations like this at least a couple of times, I can’t tell you how much of a relief it was to know that Holy Spirit within me is interceding for me. That He is sending the prayers which I can’t even think about to the Father. What a beautiful concept, what a beautiful God.
I do encourage you to read Romans 8 if you get a chance this week.
