My Father's Gift by Mindy Faubion

Isaiah 11:2 " And the Spirit of the Lord will rest on him-- the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord." This painting was given to me during Pentecost. The importance of Zechariah 4:6, "Not by might not by power but by My Spirit says the Lord of Hosts," is emphasized for this war season. The menorah with it's seven lamps is a picture God has given us of the Holy Spirit, and in the New Testament the white dove and flame of fire are both representative of the Holy Spirit. The Lord had me combine all of these representations into one picture! What a wonderful gift the Spirit of the Lord is to us.
