THE HOLY SPIRIT IS HERE

Pentecost commemorates the coming of the Holy Spirit

-Jesus knew tt His disciples will feel lost when He is not with them..so Jesus assured them tt they are not along--- the Holy Spirit will abide in them forever
-Pentecost Sunday reminds us hat no matter what we go through in life, the Holy Spirit is here!

the Holy Spirit is here and we are not alone in this world

how do we respond to the Holy Spirit dwelling in us
1. Be Sensitive
-the Lord appeared to Abraham in 3 men and Abraham recognized immediately

-set our mind on the Holy Spirit
-we can choose what we want to set our mind on... what our mind or the spirit deceives
-don't set our minds on things or person tt involve lust, wrongs, hurts, enemy, comparing what others have and we don't
-set our mind on what the spirit desires (love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, self control)
-mindset on = intensively set affection on what the spirit desires

-the impossible became possible

be sensitive cos the Holy Spirit is here with us!

2. be personal
Abraham is always personally involved

if we thirst, we must come and drink personally!

3. be urgent
be urgent and not procrastinate

don't delay

when we obey the bible, we are obeying God

repent!

4. be surrendered
-Abraham addressed himself as servant
   -servant = bond servant / slave
      -not free to go
      -not able to choose what to do

when it comes to the Lord, Abraham is unreserved.. total surrender

our job is tp follow the Holy Spirit and His job is to supply our needs

no matter what we are going through, the Holy Spirit is here!
   -He will give us wisdom
   -He will open new doors when doors are closed
   -He will bring restoration
   -He will strengthen
   -what we need to do is follow and surrender!
