FOURSQUARE GOSPEL CHURCH
24, WALE ADENEKAN STREET
THEME: A Study of the
Person and Power of the Holy Spirit
TOPIC: Holy Spirit in daily Christian Walk and
Character transformation.
The Holy Spirit
is the 3rd in the Holy Trinity (I John 5:8). He is a personality, He
speaks, can hear, can guide, counsel , can be grieved, can be quenched.
He was highly revered by the early Apostles thus, He was
able to do great and mighty t hings some which were not recorded among our Saviour’s
miracles.
The promise of the
Holy Spirit: - John 14:15-18; John15:26
His Assignments
- Vs, 26 – He will teach
- He will remind
- He will testify of Jesus
- John 16:8-9- He will convict the world of sin and of righteousness and of judgement of sin.
- Vs. 12 – More things that the disciples were not mature to bear.
John 16: 5-15
v He
will be a guide unto all truth
v He
will say only what He hears
v He
will foretell
v He
will glorify Jesus
v All
our inheritances in Christ Jesus He will declare (Eph 2:9)
The Holy Spirit makes us to know that without Christ, we can
do nothing.
Our strength will fail (we have been saved by grace through
faith) Eph 2:8-10, John 15:4 and 5).
THE PURPOSE OF THE
WORD OF GOD
2 Tim. 3:16 – “All
Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for
reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness”
The word of God was inspired by the Holy Spirit.
[A] What the word can
do--------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[B] Why are we not amenable to change or correction from the
word either the one we read, or heard from the preaching points or wherever. –
2Tim. 3:16 – The word
gives instruction in righteousness. So
that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.
- Part of the sign of the end time is living a life devoid of understanding. ITim. 4:1-8
- Why do we have itchy ears
- Are we really born of the Spirit?
- Are we
abiding in the vine? If yes?
What are your evidences?
The New man: Col.
3:12-17.
Fill this table truthfully
Old
me New me |
can’t forgiveness I now forgive easily
Or
still don’t forgive
John 6:63 – The word
is Spirit and life.
Heb. 4:11-13 -
The word is living not dead, powerful,
Sharper than any two edge sword, it is the sword of the spirit.
We can’t survive the Christian race without having the sword
of the Spirit (Word), which the Holy Spirit works with.
Read Romans 7:14-25
v How
can I walk in the Spirit and overcome the flesh
v How
can l overcome my flesh/self. My
determination is failing me (Luke
16:14-17, John 8:31-32, 34-36, Rom. 12:2, Rom. 13:12-14. Col. 3:5.
Remember – You cannot serve two masters Lk. 16:13.
WHY DO WE HAVE A DISJOINTED CHURCH? EPH. 4:11-16
The different
Ministries: ………………………………….

the body of Christ?

joint providing strength; do you give strength or you weaken the body of
Christ.

…………………………………….Eph. 5: 1-16(Be
imitators of God)
THE PRESENT DAY’S
CHURCH/ RESISTANCE TO PRUNING - John 15 :1-8
Pruning could be
……………………….?
Conclusion
Every child of God need to address those little foxes that
can or are already destroying his/her vineyard.
Without holiness no
man will see the Lord. The standard
of God seems so high, yet He changeth not, He wont lower it but He gave us His
son, then the Holy Spirit, let us surrender to the grace He (Holy Spirit)
gives. (Psalm 24:3-4, Prov. 28:13.)
