The Holy Spirit helps us in two ways: He helps us when we pray, and He helps us by praying for us.
There is marvelous way to pray that’s mentioned in the Word, it’s called praying “in the Spirit.”
Really, it’s the only way to pray. “Building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit” (Jude 1:20).
To the Christians at Ephesus, Paul said they should be “praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit” (Eph.6.18). But not only does He make His power available to us when we pray, He also prays for us!
Romans 8:26 “The Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.”
So don’t let your circumstances, no matter how distressing, keep you from prayer. The Holy Spirit is waiting to plead your case before the Father.
