The truth is this: no one succeeds in destiny by strength alone. God, in His wisdom, has given us a Helper\u2014the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is not an option; He is a necessity for victorious living in a new season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>THE HOLY SPIRIT IS YOUR DIVINE HELPER \u201cLikewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses\u2026\u201d<br>\u2014Romans 8:26<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>The Holy Spirit helps where human strength fails.
