“The Spirit Points to Jesus, Not You”
📖 “He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you.”
—John 16:14 (NKJV)
Social media wants you to believe life is all about your story, your image, your spotlight.
But the Holy Spirit flips that completely.
Jesus said the Holy Spirit would glorify Him, not us.
That means if the Spirit is at work in your life, He’s not feeding your ego—He’s magnifying Christ.
The Spirit shows us who Jesus really is—His mercy, His holiness, His power—and then helps us reflect Him in our choices, words, and friendships.
When you feel the pull to center everything on yourself,
ask: “Is this about me, or is this showing others who Jesus is?”
Glorifying Jesus might not get you likes, but it will bring you life.
Think It Over:
- Are you more concerned about what others think of you than how they see Christ through you?
- What would change if the Holy Spirit helped you glorify Jesus in your daily choices?
Prayer:
Holy Spirit, I don’t want to live for my own glory. Help me shift my focus from self to Jesus.
Show me more of who He is, and help me reflect Him in the way I live.
In His name, Amen.

● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
