THE HOLY SPIRIT – RABBIT
TRAIL
- The Holy Spirit’s
work is seen in the creation of all things that are in our physical
realm including man. The Holy
Spirit is the breath of God.
- He was sent by Jesus to
be with us personally, to light our path, to be our comforter.
- He maintains our
spiritual life as well as our physical life. He convicts us of sin and makes us aware
that there is a need of a savior and provides the opportunity to accept or
reject.
- If we pray in
accordance to “the will of God”,
He hears us. The Holy Spirit knows the perfect will of God and intercedes for us when we don’t
know the right words to say.
- The Holy Spirit gives
us tools or “gifts” as He wills, to equip us to share the gospel of
Jesus Christ, to build up the body and for the common good of the church. These gifts are available today. The gifts and calling of God are
irrevocable. – God said it not me.
- The
Gifts;
Word of Wisdom – Word of Knowledge – Special Faith – Healings – Miracles –
Prophecy – Discernment of Spirits – Speak other Languages - Interpreting
other languages, and there are more. Jesus spoke in a heavenly language
when he said “Ephphatha”, which
means “be opened”. It’s not Hebrew,
nor Greek nor any other known language.
- The Holy Spirit
changes how we talk. We will speak in
a new tongue; No “four letter” words. Did you
know that there are no cuss words in the Hebrew Language?
- The
Holy Spirit is the restraining force of Satan and Evil on this earth and
when the Church is raptured, the Holy Spirit will leave with the church
and “All Hell” will break loose.
