Regneration: He makes us Alive—
Dead people don’t make themselves alive.
Laz was told to come out. Not do something. Not even believe.
12 But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God, 13 who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God.

— Not that we are sufficient in ourselves to claim anything as coming from us, but our sufficiency is from God, 6 who has made us sufficient to be ministers of a new covenant, not of the letter but of the Spirit. For the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.

God chose you to be his child
The Holy Spirit opens eyes and ears.
17 that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him, 18 having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, 19 and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to the working of his great might 20 that he worked in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly places,

Sanctification: live a holy life— ( And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit. )

A. Strength and plans
Strength: We can’t do it. We can not beat sin. But God can. He has already. Now, he gives us that strength in the form of the Holy Spirit working in us.
Plans: His word is filled with ways to kill sin and lift up Jesus.
B. Assurance:
1. You hate sin. You make war on sin.
- 13 For if you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. 14 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.
The Holy Bible: English Standard Version. (2016). (). Wheaton, IL: Crossway Bibles.
2. You lift Jesus up
3. You need God— 6 And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, “Abba! Father!” 7 So you are no longer a slave, but a son, and if a son, then an heir through God.

The Holy Spirit brings us to life and keeps us alive
Keeping us alive in christ
Killing Sin— 16 But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. 17 For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh, for these are opposed to each other, to keep you from doing the things you want to do.
Lifting Christ- - 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.

intercedes- 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. 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.
The Holy Bible: English Standard Version. (2016). (). Wheaton, IL: Crossway Bibles.
He guides
Direction, wisdom, - For all who are led by the Spirit are sons of God
How can I get more of Him?
How can I get more of Him?
We want more. We need more. We love it when we feel it.
Negative: do not quench.
When we choose sin over God, we push the Holy Spirit down into the corner, off of the throne
— 19 Do not quench the Spirit. 20 Do not despise prophecies, 21 but test everything; hold fast what is good. 22 Abstain from every form of evil.
The Holy Bible: English Standard Version. (2016). (). Wheaton, IL: Crossway Bibles.
Positive: We are commanded to get more
“Be filled with the Spirit”
Rejoice in song— in the spirit… rejoice in song— in the word. (Eph vs Col)
In the commands we realize how in two ways:
Ask:
What father among you, if his son asks for a fish, will instead of a fish give him a serpent; 12 or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion? 13 If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!”
The Holy Bible: English Standard Version. (2016). (). Wheaton, IL: Crossway Bibles.
Just ask. If you ask in the name of Jesus (lifting Jesus up) then he will give you the Holy Spirit (which will lift Jesus up)
Trust
God has promised that he would come and change you-
But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”
The Holy Bible: English Standard Version. (2016). (). Wheaton, IL: Crossway Bibles.
“I will send the helper.” “He will work in you” “ You are his dwelling” “you will be my people”— God will finish what he started. And he will use the Holy Spirit to do that.
- And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.
The Holy Bible: English Standard Version. (2016). (). Wheaton, IL: Crossway Bibles.
The Holy Spirit is God
Approach the Bible everyday. Long for Him. Be thirsty and God will wash you with the water of His word, His Son, His Spirit. Desire Him. Pray to desire Him.
