The Spirit Of The LORD Will Rest On Him

Isaiah 11:2

The Spirit of the LORD will rest on Him—the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and strength, the Spirit of knowledge and fear of the LORD. (Isaiah 11:2)

In this verse, Isaiah is speaking about the coming Messiah. The Messiah, or Jesus Christ, will be filled with the Spirit of God. When Jesus was being baptized by John, a dove came down from heaven and rested on Him. Jesus was empowered by the Holy Spirit for His mission to save the lost. The Spirit will give Jesus wisdom, understanding, counsel, strength, knowledge and the fear of the LORD. Ask God right now to fill you with the Holy Spirit and empower with these same qualities, to live your life. ~ Jeff M Newman
