  2. Creation: By His Spirit He garnished the heavens. Job 26:13 KJV • Incarnation:“Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost. “ Matt 1:20 • His Life and Ministry: And Jesus, when he was baptized…he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him.

Matt 12:28 • His Death on the Cross: Jesus through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God. Hebrews 9:14

  3. His Resurrection: Jesus was “made alive by the Spirit” For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive by the Spirit. 1 Peter 3:18 • The Building of His church: By one Spirit we are all baptised into one body. 1 Cor 12:13 • The Ordinance of Baptism: Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.

  5. He may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being 3:16 • Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit 4:3 • And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. 4:30 • Do not get drunk on wine…instead, be filled with the Spirit 5:18 • …with psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit. Sing and make music from your heart to the Lord 5:19

  6. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people. 6:17-18

  7. The Spirit is making you and I a little more like Jesus every day! Galatians 5:22-23 Exodus 34:6-7 • 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. • 6 And he passed in front of Moses, proclaiming, “The Lord, the Lord, the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness, 7 maintaining love to thousands, and forgiving wickedness, rebellion and sin. Yet he does not leave the guilty unpunished;

  8. Fruit Character of God • Love • Joy • Peace • Patience • Kindness • Goodness • Faithfulness • Meekness • Self-control • God is love 1 John 4:16 • He will rejoice over you Zeph 3:17 • The God of Peace Heb 13:20 • He is patient with you 2 Peter 3:9 • His kindness to you Eph 2:7 • I will see the goodness of the Lord Ps 27:13 • Great is your faithfulness Lam 3:23 • I am meek and lowly Matt 11:29 • Jesus resolutely set out for Jerusalem Luke 9:51

  10. 17 Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. 18 And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.

  11. Questions/Comments texted back to the speaker from the audience The Holy Spirit is like our oxygen. It is so ever present even if we can’t see Him or smell Him that at times we don’t notice him. But if he were gone, just like oxygen, all of us would go wrong and that would be the end of us. Why did Jesus only model prayer to the Father but not to the Spirit? (i.e. Can we pray to the Spirit directly?) What does it look like to be made alive by the Spirit for us today?

  12. Questions/Comments texted back to the speaker from the audience What about speaking in tongues; baptism of the Spirit; healing by the Spirit? What happens to the Holy Spirit after the Rapture? What role does he play in the New Heaven and the New Earth? How can we measure the level of response to the Holy Spirit in our lives?
