the Ministry of the Holy Ghost
but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. ROMANS 8:26c
The sufferings of this present world are dim when considering the glory that will be manifested in the age to come. Jesus will rule and reign in Jerusalem following his great Day, and the nations of the earth will be made subject unto him. In light of the Day of Christ, the ministry of the Holy Ghost possesses a specific operation amongst the church that calls forth a longing for the deep and hidden things of God among the saints.
The intercession of the Spirit comforts those who are suffering for righteousness' sake and who are suffering for the name of Jesus; the intercession of the Spirit is in accordance with the intercession of Jesus as both are interceding according to the will of God. God desires to save the whole house of Israel. When gentile churches humble themselves before the will of God, then God empowers them to do his will.
The preaching of the gospel among gentile churches towards the house of Israel is a holy thing; the intercession of the Holy Ghost is supported and glorified by the elected remnant of God in the stewardship of the oracles of Jehovah back towards the house of Israel.
The gospel goes to the Jew first, then to the gentile; when gentile churches humble themselves under the will of God, then the ministry of the Holy Ghost gives them power to do the Father's will.
