With Worship and Prayer Comes Holy Spirit and Power
Who is the Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is a Devine Person indwelling a Christ-follower and working within them to fulfill the will of God.
One of the greatest needs in the church today is to understand and possess a personal relationship with the THIRD PERSON of the the trinity- God, the Holy Spirit.
He is our:
Comforter
Standby
Advocate
Intercessor
Teacher
Guide
Counselor
Strengthener
Leader
Helper
Partner
The Holy Spirit has the qualities of a person.
The Holy Spirit has the qualities of a person.
He has a mind-
He has a will-
27 And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.
He has emot
He has a will- 1 corinthians 12: (ESV)
27 And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.
11 All these are empowered by one and the same Spirit, who apportions to each one individually as he wills.
He has emotions-: (ESV)
30 I appeal to you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to strive together with me in your prayers to God on my behalf,
He speaks- : (ESV)
2 While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.”
He bears witness and testifies- : (ESV)
26 “But when the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he will bear witness about me.
(ESV)
16 The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God,
He instructs- : (ESV)
20 You gave your good Spirit to instruct them and did not withhold your manna from their mouth and gave them water for their thirst.
He prays and makes intercession- : (ESV)
26 Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words.
The Holy Spirit has feelings like a person
He can be grieved-
30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.
He can be insulted-Hebrews 10:29 (ESV)
29 How much worse punishment, do you think, will be deserved by the one who has trampled underfoot the Son of God, and has profaned the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and has outraged the Spirit of grace?
He can be lied to-Acts 5:3 (ESV)
3 But Peter said, “Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back for yourself part of the proceeds of the land?
He can be blasphemed-Matthew 12:31–32 (ESV)
31 Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven people, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven. 32 And whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come.
He can be resisted-Acts 7:51 (ESV)
51 “You stiff-necked people, uncircumcised in heart and ears, you always resist the Holy Spirit. As your fathers did, so do you.
He can be vexed-Isaiah 63:10 (ESV)
10 But they rebelled
and grieved his Holy Spirit;
therefore he turned to be their enemy,
and himself fought against them.
He can be quenched- (ESV)
19 Do not quench the Spirit.
The Holy Spirit is the “Parakletos” and He wants :
(summoned, called to one's side, esp. called to one's aid, one who pleads another's cause before a judge, a pleader, counsel for defense, legal assistant, an advocate,one who pleads another's cause with one, an intercessor of Christ in his exaltation at God's right hand, pleading with God the Father for the pardon of our sin, sin the widest sense, a helper, succourer, aider, assistance of the Holy Spirit destined to take the place of Christ with the apostles (after his ascension to the Father), to lead them to a deeper knowledge of the gospel truth, and give them divine strength needed to enable them to undergo trials and persecutions on behalf of the divine kingdom)
