  1. Engaging with the Holy Spirit Acts of the Apostles

  2. A fresh experience Acts 1:4-5(GNT) 4 And when they came together, he gave them this order: “Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift I told you about, the gift my Father promised. 5 John baptized with water, but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.”

  3. A promise for ALL Acts 2:38-39(GNT) 38 Peter said to them, “Each one of you must turn away from your sins and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ, so that your sins will be forgiven; and you will receive God's gift, the Holy Spirit. 39 For God's promise was made to you and your children, and to all who are far away—all whom the Lord our God calls to himself.”

  4. Prayer and the Holy Spirit Acts 4:31(GNT) 31 When they finished praying, the place where they were meeting was shaken. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to proclaim God's message with boldness. Also Romans 8:26-27

  5. The Holy Spirit and guidance Acts 13:1-2 (GNT) 1 In the church at Antioch there were some prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Simeon (called the Black), Lucius (from Cyrene), Manaen (who had been brought up with Governor Herod), and Saul. 2 While they were serving the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said to them, “Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul, to do the work to which I have called them.”

  6. Holy Spirit and prophecy Acts 11:27-30(GNT) 27 About that time some prophets went from Jerusalem to Antioch. 28 One of them, named Agabus, stood up and by the power of the Spirit predicted that a severe famine was about to come over all the earth. (It came when Claudius was emperor.) 29 The disciples decided that they each would send as much as they could to help their fellow believers who lived in Judea. 30 They did this, then, and sent the money to the church elders by Barnabas and Saul.

  7. The Holy Spirit and our personality • Acts 5:1-5 • Acts 12:20-24

  8. Conclusion: The Holy Spirit • Is God’s gift to us – Acts 1:4-5 • Aids our prayer life – Acts 4:31, Rom. 8:26-27 • Gives us boldness – Acts 2:14; 4:31 • Gives us Guidance – Acts 13:1-2 • Brings forth prophecy – Acts 11:27-30 • Is grieved by our selfishness - Acts 5:1-5; 12:20-24
