The Holy Spirit for Today’s Christian
Galatians 5:25 – Since we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit’s leading in every part of our lives.
Does the Holy Spirit still work today? Do we believe He is still around? Do we still believe the prophecies about the Holy Spirit?
In Peter’s Sermon in acts, he quotes Joel
Acts 2:16-18 “But this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel: 17 ‘And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your young men shall see visions, Your old men shall dream dreams. 18 And on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days; And they shall prophesy.
If you answered yes, then we can all agree that the same promises of the Holy Spirit, His leading, His working and His gifts are still alive just as He is!
If He is alive and working, then shouldn’t we want as much of Him as we possibly can get?
1 Corinthians 1:4-7 I thank my God always concerning you for the grace of God which was given to you by Christ Jesus, 5 that you were enriched in everything by Him in all utterance and all knowledge, 6 even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you, 7 so that you come short in no gift, eagerly waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ,
We don’t want only a little bit of what God has for us! We should want the FULLNESS of what He is giving us.
So if the Holy Spirit is ALIVE AND WORKING right now,
- Do we have Him in us?
- What’s the difference between BAPTISM and FILLING?
- What does He expect from us?
- How do we allow Him to work?
