  1. HOW TO BE LED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT

  2. HOW DOES THE TRINITY WORK?

  3. The first step is to establish how many Gods exist: Only one! • "I am the LORD, and there is no other; besides Me there is no God" Isa 45:5 • “Thus says the Lord, the King of Israel And his Redeemer, the Lord of hosts: ‘I am the first and I am the last, And there is no God besides Me“ Isa 44:6

  4. God is a trinity of persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit • The Father is not the same person as the Son; the Son is not the same person as the Holy Spirit; and the Holy Spirit is not the same person as Father.  

  5. They are not three gods and not three beings.  They are three distinct persons; yet, they are all the one God.  Each has a will, can speak, can love, etc., and these are demonstrations of personhood.   • They are in absolute perfect harmony consisting of one substance. They are co-eternal, co-equal, and co-powerful.  If any one of the three were removed, there would be no God.

  6. HIS ROLE IS TO…

  7. To instruct, teach, reveal Nehemiah 9:20; Job 32:8; Luke 12:12; John 14:27; 15:26; 16:13, 14; Acts 13:2 To counsel, guide John 14:26; 16:13; Acts 11:12; 16:6, 7; 20:22, 23; Romans 8:14; Galatians 5:18

  8. To comfort John 14:16, 26; 15:26; 16:17; Acts 9:31 To commission to service (ministry) Isaiah 48: 16; Acts 13:2; 20:28

  9. To convict of sin, to strive with sinners Genesis 6:3; John 16:8-11 To give power and boldness Acts 1:8; Acts 4:31; Ephesians 3: 16; I Timothy l:6,7 To testify that we are the children of God Romans 8:16; Galatians 4:6

  10. To empower the believer to have victory over the flesh Romans 8:4,13; Galatians 5:16, 25 To inspire to prophesy Numbers 9:30; 11:25, 29; 2 Samuel 23:2, Acts 21:4; 28:25; 2 Peter 1:21

  11. To impart - life I Samuel 10:6, 9; Ezekiel 37:9,14; Romans 8:11- hope Romans 15:13 - joy Romans 14: 17; I Thessalonians 1:6; Galatians 5:22 - love Romans 5:5 - skill Exodus 31:2-5- physical strength Judges 14:6,19; 15;14,15 - spiritual strength Ephesians 3:16

  12. HOW DOES THE HOLY SPIRIT LEAD US?

  13. Firstly, He desires to lead us For all who are being led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. Romans 8:14 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the Law Galatians 5:18 …walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh. Romans 8:13

  14. We are given His peace as an umpire • And let the peace of Christ rule (Greek: umpire) in your hearts,to which indeed you were called in one body; and be thankful. Col 3:15 • The presence or absence of peace in a situation • When there is no peace we sense that the Umpire has blown His whistle to call us back to where we need to be

  15. 2. We are convicted when we sin • John 16:8 (NEB) "When he [the Holy Spirit] comes, he will convict the world, and show where right and wrong and judgment lie. He will convict them of wrong...“ • When we sin we receive an ‘email’ from the Holy Spirit to inform us that we are on dangerous ground. • It is different from condemnation which is erratic and heavy; conviction is constant and woos us to the Father. • ‘Come on now, let’s fix this and move on’ • When we repent, the conviction lifts 1Jn 1:9

  16. We are given direction Jn 16:13 But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. Rom 8:14 or all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. • The Spirit tells us what is on the Father’s heart and directs us to His will • We can receive direction for the day, direction for a matter or direction for our life

  17. 4. We are assisted in prayer Rom 8:26 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. • We are led in our prayer language by the Holy Spirit to pray for things that are deep and profound • Paul said he prayed in tongues more than anyone else 1 Cor 14:18 • You can include this into your devotional time with God • Sometimes when we are prompted to intensify this it precedes some sort of breakthrough for yourself or others
