  2. Holy Spirit in the Life of Jesus Holy Mysteries Cliff notes on the Trinity (recap): Father: Directs Word/Christ: Carries out Holy Spirit: Empowers, Perfects and Completes “Perichoresis” – The Great Dance, a word describing the perfectly harmonious mutual relationship of the three persons of the Holy Trinity. Philippians 2:6-8 (Obedience to God’s Holy Spirit) “Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death – even death on a cross!” Hebrews 2:6-8 (Sub Section Heading in NIV: “Jesus Made Like His Brothers”) “What is man that you are mindful of him, the Son of Man that you care for him? You made him a little lower than the angels; you crowned him with glory and honor and put everything under his feet”. Vineyard Christian Fellowship

  3. Holy Spirit in the Life of Jesus Childhood of Jesus • Holy Spirit affirms Jesus • Holy Spirit rests on Jesus • Spirit of Wisdom and Understanding • Spirit of Counsel and Power • Spirit of Knowledge and of the Fear of the Lord • - The Holy Spirit not only prepared Jesus for the messianic call, but also orchestrated the circumstances leading up to Jesus’ Ministry window. • - He was working in John the Baptist • - He was working in the lives of the yet to be called disciples • - He has been and continued to work through world events… • The Pax Romana (peace, common language, road systems) • Dispersed Synagogues (4.5 million Jews in Roman empire) Vineyard Christian Fellowship

  4. Holy Spirit in the Life of Jesus Ministry of Jesus • - Jesus’ Baptism was a turning point in His life • Received His Messianic calling • Romans 10:15a “How can they preach unless they are sent” • Being sent is not a human decision… it’s a divine appointment • - Thought with Divine Wisdom (by the Spirit of Wisdom) • Thought with Authority (by the Spirit of Power) • He faced the humanly impossible through the strengthening of the Holy Spirit • Luke 22:42 “Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me; yet not my will, but yours be done.”…“and being in anguish, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground.” Vineyard Christian Fellowship

  5. Who is willing to be my hands and feet? Who is willing to intercede? Who is willing to proclaim my Word amongst the people? Who is willing to lose their life to find it? Who is willing to feed and clothe the least of mine? “You shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you…” (Acts 1:8)
