Reflection on Jn 15:26

“When the Comforter comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father,

the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify of Me.”

The Holy Spirit will testify, but Jesus also reminds: “And you also will bear witness, because you have been with Me from the beginning.” (v. 27) This is said about us too. We also should bear witness about Christ at the present time together with the Holy Spirit who is in us and whom Jesus has sent to us from the Father. He is our Counsellor, Comforter and Advocate. He bears witness about Christ through us too! This is an important task: to bear witness about Christ! Testimony is associated with a spiritual fight against the spirit of lies! Let us remember: The Spirit of truth is with us. He gives us the strength to fight against the spirit of lies and death! The truth will not prevail by itself. We have to bear witness to the truth, to fight for the truth, and even to suffer and die for its sake. Jesus Christ is the Truth. He said: “I am the Way, the Truth and the Life.” (Jn 14:6) Let us pray that the Spirit of God would bear witness first in our prayer, life and apostolate. Many of you pray acc. Mk 11:23 – the lifting up of the mountain of evil, as well as acc. Ezek 37 – the prayer for spiritual resurrection of Ukraine. Many of you have had the experience of how powerful apostolate the prayer of faith is. One must be conscious of the mystery of the power of God which is connected with the holy name of Jesus. The condition is inner unity with the Triune God who wants to save the souls – to raise the spiritually dead to life – through you. Devote time to prayer. Television is the thief of time. When you will be dying, you will not regret a single minute given for prayer or apostolate for the salvation of souls and the nation!
