GIFTS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT SERIES – HOLY SPIRIT, THE GOD PERSON (3)

 

[BIBLE STUDY 0904]

 

Premise Scriptures: Acts 2:1-21, 1 Corinthians 12:1-31 and Eph 4: 1-16

 

Pentecost The D-Day of Arrival of the Holy Ghost To Continue with God’s Redemptive Plan – “Fire Baptism”

 

Acts 2:1-4

1And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.

 2And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.

 3And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.

 4And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

 

Before the Holy Spirit can fill a person, the person has to be convicted of his sins and repent. The Holy Spirit came in the fullness of His Power on Peter and some 3000 people were saved in the first revival sermon of the church. Peter in his sermon preached that the Holy Spirit arrival is a fulfillment of prophecy which the Lord showed to King David of the death, resurrection, ascension and glorification of Jesus. The joy of Jesus became full in heaven because he had completed the earthly assignment he had from God The Father.

 

Acts 2, 25-28, 33

 25For David speaketh concerning him, I foresaw the Lord always before my face, for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved:

 26Therefore did my heart rejoice, and my tongue was glad; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope:

 27Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.

 28Thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou shalt make me full of joy with thy countenance.

33Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear.

 

Seek for the Holy Spirit Until you Receive Him

The Holy Spirit is a precious person that you need to seek until you find him, not asking complacently. He will never come or will come in trickle power and presence if you do that. Do not relent until he comes into you in the fullness of his power. We read in Acts 2 that the disciples received him and where able to be used as vessels to perform all the wonders in the book of Acts [Acts of the Apostle]. Spiritual Ignorance can delay the manifestation of the Holy Spirit in your life. After salvation, you seek for water baptism which is a symbolic representation of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

 

Water Baptism compared to Fire Baptism Experience

Water baptism is a one time experience. It is different from the Holy Spirit baptism which you need for lifetime experiences of living triumphantly and victoriously. Just like the glucose which a boxer needs to fight from round to round in a 15 round punishing battle with his opponent. A child of God needs the wine or tonic power of the Holy Ghost to overcome the opponent. The principal opponent is the devil and his demons and the ring is the world with spectators all around.   You need the invigorating power of the Holy Spirit to go through every round of life. The first gift which most people receive to signal his presence is the speaking of tongue which we will go into more specifics in future. Brethren, the Holy Spirit is very important in our individual walk with God as individuals and as a corporate body. The Holy Spirit is the one that does the signs and wonders that accompanies the preaching of the gospel.

 

Acts 19:1-7

1And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples,

 2He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost.

 3And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John’s baptism.

 4Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.

 5When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.

 6And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.

 7And all the men were about twelve

 

Sin Grieves the Holy Spirit

The Holy Spirit is the seal of our redemption [Eph 4:30]. The Blood of Jesus is the “gum” and the Holy Spirit anointing and power is the seal on your forehead as a believer. Make Friendship & Intimacy with the Holy Spirit, not acquaintanceship.

 

For unbelievers, they should not attempt to trample upon the Holy acts or name of the Holy Spirit.  Because the Holy Spirit can also make the unbeliever’s life miserable on earth before the person is sent to hell at death. Jesus warned blasphemers particularly.

 

Matthew 12:31-32

31Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.

 32And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come.

 

So today if you hear his voice as the scripture says, do not harden your heart. Repent of your sins if you are an unbeliever, or if you are believer of any known sin. Ask Jesus to come into your heart and begin to seek the fullness of the Holy Spirit Power in your life. He will come and fill you with his Power and your joy will become full like a river.

 

CONCLUSION

In these last 3 studies we have learnt that the Holy Spirit is a Real Person and there was a day He came to reside with us on earth to continue with the redemptive plan of God. Every believer needs him to function effectively and efficiently on a personal level and as part of the Body of Christ. You need Him and your level of expectation is very important to receive His full baptism of Fire like the disciples had on the day of Pentecost. You also need to keep your garments pure and unspotted.  Earnestly ask Him for His presence and power in your life today. In future study we will study the specific gift of the Holy Spirit, that is your specific gift or your part assigned to you by Him in ministering to the needs of the Body of Christ.

 

Please sing this song of Revival.

 

Song of Holy Ghost Revival “Come Holy Spirit” [(Peterson)  Key(s):  C/Db]

 

Verse 1
The Holy Spirit came at Pentecost

And multitudes were born again
The early Christians scattered o’er the world
They preached the gospel fearlessly
Tho’ some were martyred and to lions hurled
They marched along in victory

When saints would seek the Lord and pray
O once again we need that holy flame
To meet the challenge of today

[BIBLE STUDY 0903]

 

Premise Scriptures: Acts 2:1-21, 1 Corinthians 12:1-31 and Eph 4: 1-16

 

Desiring the Gift of the Holy Spirit

There are 3 levels of asking from God anything you desire from him. You can get it by asking, seeking or knocking on the door of heaven earnestly until you are given. One thing every child of God should desire with all their heart until they receive it is the Holy Spirit.

 

Asking for the Holy Spirit

 

Luke 11:11-13

 11 If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent?

 12 Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion?

 13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?

 

A child looking forward to a great meal will expect bread, fish and egg and not stone, serpent and scorpion. Bread, fish, and egg are life sustaining. Stone, serpent and egg will harm a child. A father who gives a stone or a scorpion to a child to eat should expect to be in jail for a long time. In another scene, fathers give good gifts to their children out of love. When the child receives a gift he or she ask for, that child’s face is lighted with joy. In the above story, Jesus said earthly fathers expectedly make good choices in giving the right food to their children. 

Translating the story to the spiritual, God is our heavenly Father. The best gift by our heavenly Father after salvation (similar to after a child is born in the above passage) is the gift of the Holy Spirit. God knows you need it for survival in the world because the other alternatives out there are evil spirits from the devil who does not want a Christian to survive in the faith. If you want to survive in the faith you definitely need the Holy Spirit. Ask God to fill you with the Holy Spirit today.

 

The Holy Spirit is God’s Promise to a Born Again Child of God

 

John 7:37-39

37In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.

 38He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.

 39(But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)

 

Before Jesus left back to heaven he said the disciples should wait until they receive the Holy Ghost. The Holy Spirit came fully on the day of Pentecost and see how beautiful and affectious the lives of these ordinary men and women became. 120 disciples who had been tarrying in the upper room waiting as Jesus had said before ascending to heaven became filled with that River of Power. The disciples obeyed Jesus and waited in prayers in an upper room. On the day of Pentecost the Holy Spirit arrived and became resident in the hearts of these first fruit disciples. The Spirit came like a mighty rushing wind and they began to speak in tongues.

 

Knocking on the Door of Heaven for the Holy Spirit

 

Acts1; 4,8

4And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.

 8But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

 

Jesus commanded the disciples to stay where they were, that is, Jerusalem and wait for the promise of the Father. They were not to depart until they received the Holy Spirit. This was to be their primary assignment during the period. They were told to wait for their “staff of authority”, that is the power of the Holy Spirit. This type of waiting on the Lord involves intense prayers and study of the word of God, prayer and fasting, corporate prayer and revival, and the like. The individual must be focused one hundred percent on the Giver of the Power which is the God the Father.  Your prayers should be very persistent. This is the level of knocking on the door of heaven. God will be pleased that you know what you want and open the door of Heaven to give you the Holy Spirit. You pass from the level of asking and seeking to knocking and then you receive.

 

CONCLUSION

Your expectation is very important as you prepare yourself to receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Prepare yourself and ask for the Holy Spirit. If it is in an assembly, the Minister will likely lay hands on you or pray the prayer of faith with you. Ask, seek and knock on the door of heaven until you receive the Holy Spirit so you can begin to enjoy the comfort of walking in his power.  [To be continued].

 

Prayer Points

1.                 Holy Spirit, come with your power into my life. Pour your fresh oil on me. Ignite my heart with your Living Fire. I give my heart to you as an altar of your Fire in Jesus Name.

 

2.      O Lord, I wait eager and expectantly for your Holy Spirit. Come with baptism of  Fire upon my life. Holy Ghost burn out all chaff from my life with your unquenchable fire. Let you fire burn in my bones, brew in my belly and revive my heart to your living power in Jesus Name. Amen.

GIFTS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT SERIES – HOLY SPIRIT, THE GOD PERSON (1)

 

 

[BIBLE STUDY 0902]

 

Premise Scriptures: Acts 2:1-21, 1 Corinthians 12:1-31 and Eph 4: 1-16

 

The Giver and the Gifts

This study focuses on knowing who the Person of the Holy Spirit before we begin to look at specific gifts we can receive from the Holy Spirit.  During the series of teachings you will get to know who the Holy Spirit is, How you can receive him, his acts and gifts to a believer. Just plug in your power cord by opening your heart by faith so you can receive him. For those who have not been filled, you will be filled as you open your heart and pray for his indwelling power earnestly in Jesus Name. The teaching will be interjected with prayers so be ready to pray and receive him, his power and gifts as we go along.

 

Introduction

The Holy Spirit is the Third Person of the Trinity who wants to dwell in the heart of a child of God continually, rather than being hindered by sin or the sinful nature of man. The Holy Spirit is willing to manifest his full power through every believer who is saved, washed and sanctified by the blood of Jesus and is living a holy life. He is an absolute essential to have if you want to make a success of your Christian life. He is also very important if you must live the victorious Christian life over the kingdom of darkness that is opposed to everything that is God’s. Before Jesus began his public ministry he received the Holy Spirit Power because he needed the Power to carry out the great work of the Ministry before him. If Jesus being God made man needed the Holy Spirit to live triumphantly, we also need him if we are to make an impact in the world by the grace and power of God Almighty. The Lord will help us as we yield ourselves more to him for him to mold us, make us and use us in his vineyard in Jesus Name.

 

John 3: 13-17

 13Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him.

 14But John forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me?

 15And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him.

 16And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:

 17And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

Knowing The Holy Spirit

The Holy Spirit is a real person possessing all the attributes of the Godhead. He is not an abstract thought or personality.  Like God the Father and God the Son, He is omnipotent, omnipresent, Alpha and Omega. One of the Acts of the Holy Spirit is creation, making old things new again or creating new things altogether. For example:

 

A. He formed or should I say re-formed the shapeless earth & is in the business of reforming shapeless men today.

 

Gen 1: 1-3

1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

 2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

 3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

 

B. The Holy Spirit was present when the Godhead Council decided to make man as the brand new creation to rule and reign over all of God’s creation.

 

Gen 1:26

26And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth

 

C. The Spirit was that part of God that dwelt in Adam before the fall. He is willing to come in his full power to a regenerated heart, just as he dwelt with Adam before the fall when Adam had all the power and authority over all of God’s creation. 

 

Gen 2:7

7And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

 

CONCLUSION

Now that we have knowledge of who the Holy Spirit, let us fear Him, reverence Him and give Him all the praise He deserves. Make yourself available to Him and He will reveal more of Himself to you in Jesus Name.  [To be continued]

 

Prayer Points

1.                 Holy Spirit, I give my self to you. Shake out every dust in my life and breathe into me your fresh life and power in Jesus Name.

 

2.      Holy Spirit, descend upon me and reveal me to the people of the world around me  to your own glory in Jesus Name.

BIBLE STUDY 0701: THE VOICE OF GOD [PART II]

 

HEAR FROM GOD AND GROW

 

Text: Genesis 32

 

Introduction: Hearing from God is better as a firsthand experience than a second hand experience. By firsthand experience I mean hearing from God yourself. By second hand experience, I mean hearing from God through another person, e.g. a pastor, prophet, etc. When you begin to hear from God you begin to grow. All Christian can and should hear the voice of God. If you do not hear from God your spiritual life will be stunted.

 

The Experience of Jacob

 

Gen 32: v28; v30

 

28 And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed.

 

30And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.

 

There is no way you will not remember something happened to you after meeting the Almighty. Jacob had this experience and his life was changed forever. Before this experience, he was known as a deceiver, his days were full of evil and these early years experience shortened his lifespan compared to his grandfather Abraham and his father Isaac [Gen 47:9]. Twenty years earlier in Gen 28, running from his brother Esau whom he had deceived for the birthright, he slept and put his head on a rock. He saw in a dream, angels ascending and descending from heaven. He saw the LORD and God reassured him of the Abrahamic covenant. He lived a hard life with his uncle in Haran. But for the children whom God blessed him with in Haran, he did not have anything to show for his sojourn in Haran.  In this second encounter with the Almighty, he fought with the angel until the breaking of dawn, and when the angel saw the importunity of Jacob, he touched the hollow of Jacob’s thigh, dislocated the joint which made him to limp for the rest of his life.  He prevailed as a prince with God and man.  Hearing from God is the right of every Christian saved by the blood of Jesus. It is not for spiritual giants alone.

 

Jesus said; “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them and they follow me.” John 10:27. Also, read John 10:4-6

 

God wants us to communication with him no matter how you think you are busy or you draw up a schedule that completely choke your time that so that you have no room for daily fellowship with God. This is the sin in the developed world when you have to crowd your time with work or work-related schedule and no time for God.

Every believer has a spiritual capacity to know God and hear God.

 

Heb 8:10-11 

10For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:

 11And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.

 

The Battlefield of the Mind

The untrained mind is bombarded by different thoughts. It is like a busy market. You might ask, how do I hear from God? For a Christian whose mind has been tempered or controlled by the Holy Spirit, God speaks to your spirit-man not your brain. The mind is in the soul –realm, and God does not speak to your soul, he speaks to your spirit.

 

Proverbs 20:27 

 

27The spirit of man is the candle of the LORD, searching all the inward parts of the belly.

 

You need to switch off your brain rationalizing the things of God to hear clearly from God. The natural mind cannot receive the  things of God because they are spiritually discerned. You need to be ultra-sensitive to the voice and command of the Holy Spirit to receive the best from God.

 

1 Corinthians 2: 9-16

9But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

 10But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.

 11For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.

 12Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.

 13Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

 14But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

 15But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.

 16For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? but we have the mind of Christ.

 

CONCLUSION

We have established from this study that hearing from God can be one big encounter the first time you hear it like Jacob had or it can be a daily occurrence for guidance like Jesus said, “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them and they follow me.” John 10:27.  You need to train your ears to hear his voice and do not allow the things of the world to make you deaf from hearing God’s voice. If the enemy shouts into your ear, allow the voice of God to shout louder to drown the voice of the enemy. Continue to meditate on heavenly things. This is the battlefield of the mild, and victory is yours in Jesus Name.

BIBLE STUDY 0618: THE VOICE OF GOD [PART I]

 

“STILL, SOMETIMES SMALL BUT ALWAYS POWERFUL”

 

Text: Psalm 29

 

THE SIMILITUDE OF THE GODHEAD TO A REGENERATED PERSON

 

Introduction: The voice of God is one everyone will be awestruck when you are privileged to hear it. Adam heard it in the Garden of Eden and was convicted of his sin, Abraham heard it and moved by faith out of a heathen land to the land of Promise, and Moses heard it in the burning bush and moved closer to hear it. Samuel also heard it audibly as a young child and grew to hear from God all the time. The bible is full of stories of people who have heard the voice of God and their lives never remained the same again.  Psalm 29 describes vividly how powerful the voice of God can be. In this study, we will look at how we can place ourselves in a position to hear more of his voice – maybe audibly, maybe not. But one thing is certain; God always speaks and want to get our attention all the time.  I pray that your spiritual ears be always attuned and connected with the frequency of God’s voice after you go through this study in Jesus Name.

 

The image of God in Man

God made man in his own image and likeness. Gen 1:26, Gen 9:6, 1 Corinthians 11:7]

Man was created with different parts of the body, with a soul and a spirit.

 

The Godhead consists of the Father, Son on and the Holy Spirit.

•         God is a real person – He is a Spirit being, with a soul and a heavenly body [Job 13:8; Heb 1:3].

•         God goes from place to place in a body and spoke to men at different times. He is Omni-present but not Omni-body] – his presence can be felt everywhere at the same time [Gen 3:8, 11:5, Gen 35:9-13; Titus 2:13]

 

Parts of God’s Body Revealed to man:

 

Heart [Gen, 6:6; 8:21]

Gen 6:6 “And the Lord regretted that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved at heart.”

 

Nostrils and Mouth [Psalm 18:8, Num 12:8]

Psalm 18: 8 There went up a smoke out of his nostrils, and fire out of his mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it.

 

Lips and Tongue [Isaiah 30: 27]

 27 Behold, the name of the LORD cometh from far, burning with his anger, and the burden thereof is heavy: his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue as a devouring fire:

 

 

Other parts of God’s body described in scriptures; Eyes, eyelids, sight [Psalm 11:4, Psalm 18:24] , Back parts, hence front part [Exodus 33:23];  Hands and Fingers [Exodus 31:18, Psalm 8: 3-6];  Breath [Gen 2:7], Ears [Psalm 18:6], Hair, head, face and arms [Dan7: 9-14, Rev 5:1, 6-7; Rev 22:4-6];  Loins [Ezekiel 1:26-28], and Bodily Presence [Gen 3:8; 18:1-22; Job1:6-12; 2:1-7; Ex 24:10-11]

 

Voice [Psalm 29; Rev 10:3-4] – The topic of the study

 

Matt 3: 16-17

 

16  And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:

 17  And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

 

Practice the Presence of God

Since God is a real person, begin to practice his presence in your life. He sees you and is interested in every detail of your life. He is interested in your success. Do nothing he would not do if he were bodily present. Learn to communicate with him effectively in prayer. Listen to his voice as he speaks to your heart through his Holy Spirit.

 

Encounter with the Almighty:

When you meet God or you hear the voice of God, the effects are alike. It is called an encounter with the Lord. You are caught between the ROCK Himself and a hard place. If you flee from the ROCK, you jam the devil or you stay with the ROCK, he melts and moulds you. Have you had an unforgettable encounter with the Lord? How do you think God looks like if you encountered him face to face? An encounter with God leaves a permanent memory. It will be so vivid that you can say I know when it happened to me and nothing can remove that meeting from my spirit. You can hear of somebody and it has no direct relevance to you or you can hear of someone and it has a dumbfounding impact on your life. When you meet God you meet the greatest mirror, because he is a spiritual mirror who tells you what you are. Job had an encounter with the Lord and was honest with himself.

 

[Job 42:5-6]

 

5   I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear: but now mine eye seeth thee.

6   Wherefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.

 

When you have met the Lord, your life will be completely reversed, you will undergo complete overhaul; a new thing will begin to happen.  When Peter encountered Jesus he exclaimed depart from me for I am a sinner. Isaiah saw the Lord and said “Woe is me”, Ezekiel saw God and fell on his face; Daniel saw the Lord and said I was like a dead man. Paul when he was Saul of Tarsus met the Lord and the effect wore on and revived the early church.

 

CONCLUSION

Now that you know that man was created in the image of God’s PERSON and LIKENESS and the desire of God is that we have an unbroken fellowship with him, it will benefit you to seek to hear his voice all the time. Ask God to open your inner ears so your ears will not be dull of hearing his voice in Jesus Name.
