To Work with the Holy Spirit

1. When JESUS ascended to heaven, HE sent the Holy Spirit to come to us.

•	V7. 7But I tell you the truth: It is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Counselor will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.
•	Even the Holy Spirit dwell in us as Counselor (John 14:16-18- . 16And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever-- 17the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will beC in you. 18I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. )

2. What are the areas, the Holy Spirit will help us in?

•	To give us comfort when we are down/distress.
•	To make us realize of our sins, the truth and judgment (v8-11)
•	To reveal to us things in the future (v13b)
•	To reveal to us what was received from Lord JESUS (v14-15)
•	To be with us forever (v16)
•	To dwell in us (v17-18)
•	To give the power to live in victory, so we can be witness (Acts1:8-. 8But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”)
•	Power to experience personal breakthrough
•	Power to do miracle
•	Power to save souls

3. How we can work together with the Holy Spirit?

•	We have to welcome the Holy Spirit intimately at all time Because Holy Spirit lives in us (John 14:17- 17the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will beC in you. ) Paul reminded us Our body is the temple of the Holy Spirit ( 1 Cor 6:19- . 19Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; ) Let’s not grieve the Holy Spirit ( Ephesians 4 : 30 - 30And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption) So we will have the fellowship with the Holy Spirit ( 2 Cor 13:14 - 14May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.) Because the Holy Spirit is one of the personalities of GOD, He has the feeling of wanting to be accepted well.
•	We have to involve the Holy Spirit in all aspects of our life. During our worship ( John 4: 23-24 - . 23Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. 24God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth." ) When we learn the Word of GOD When we are praying (Ephesians 6:18 - 18And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints. ) When we are serving/ ministering (Acts 16:6 - 6Paul and his companions traveled throughout the region of Phrygia and Galatia, having been kept by the Holy Spirit from preaching the word in the province of Asia.) When we are facing problem ( Mark 13:11 - 11Whenever you are arrested and brought to trial, do not worry beforehand about what to say. Just say whatever is given you at the time, for it is not you speaking, but the Holy Spirit. ) When we are weak (Rom 8:26- 26In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express) When we have to decide on a choice
•	We have to obey Him in all things The Holy Spirit has a very gentle heart When we obey the Holy Spirit then the Holy Spirit will work even more.
