Many people find it difficult to understand the concept of the Trinity. The Bible says in that the Father, the Word – Jesus according to – and the Holy Ghost are one. They are one, yet they are three distinct entities. I’ll explain it this way:I am one man called Adeboye, but I can express myself differently in different situations. For example, if my wife breaks a ceramic plate, I will be gentle Adeboye; I will speak gently to her and ensure that she is fine. However, if it is my son, I could be furious Adeboye because I might be angry with him for being careless. I am the same person, but I’ll show different sides of myself depending on what is needed in different situations.
God is one. However, He chooses to express Himself in three different forms. Water can be in liquid, gas (steam), or solid form (ice) based on changes in its temperature. In the same vein, God is one God, and He chooses to express Himself as the Holy Spirit when needed, the Word when needed, and the Father when needed. One expression is not less God than the other, just as ice or steam is not less water than its liquid form.
God the Father is the side of God that is fatherly. However, just like Adeboye the father, which I described in the first paragraph, He can be strict in this form. During the dispensation of the Father in the Old Testament, people got immediate judgment for their sins. God the Son, who is Jesus Christ, came in the flesh, so as says, He has feelings just like us, and He is the same yesterday, today, and forever (). He is the most relatable to us as He has gone through the temptations we are currently going through, and He advocates for us with the Father (). God the Spirit is the creative side of God. He is the One who lives in you to do the things that were otherwise impossible to you (, Corinthians 3:16, , ).
Beloved, knowing the Trinity will empower you to live above limitations. Also, to enjoy God’s fullness, you need to know Him as the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. I pray that you will experience the fullness of the Godhead in your life, in Jesus’ name.
