10 Reasons We Need The Holy Spirit

God has been stirring in me a deep hunger and passion for the Holy Spirit lately, well beyond the norm.

So, below are 10 reasons why God, the Holy Spirit is essential. And over the next several weeks, I'm going to cover each of these topics in depth.

We are...

  1. Drawn to God by the Holy Spirit (John 6:44).
  2. Born again and atoned to Christ by the Holy Spirit (John 3:6-8; Titus 3:5; Acts 19:1-6).
  3. Indwelled by the Holy Spirit (John 14:16-17).
  4. Empowered by the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:8; 4:31; Luke 24:49).
  5. Counseled by the Holy Spirit (John 14:26; 16:7).
  6. Convicted by the Holy Spirit (John 16:8).
  7. Led by the Holy Spirit (Romans 8:13-14; 2 Peter 1:20-21).
  8. Given gifts by the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 12:7-11).
  9. Sealed by the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 1:13-14).
  10. Cultivated and harvested by the Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23).
I'm really looking forward to revisiting and teaching the Truth about God, the Holy Spirit. We need Him desperately.
