TOPIC: The Holy Spirit [Open Heaven for Teens 7 November 2022]
MEMORISE: But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. John 14:26
READ: Acts 1:1-8
- The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,
- Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen:
- To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:
- And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.
- For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.
- When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
- And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.
- But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Hebrews 4:1-16, Jeremiah 46-48
MESSAGE:
You may have heard someone say “We are in the dispensation of the Holy Spirit. This saying is true. The Holy Spirit is the third Person in the Trinity. He is the Comforter (John 14:16). When someone is bereaved, the best source of comfort comes from the Holy Spirit. He knows how best to calm the fellow down. He is the Teacher (John 14:26). The Holy Spirit is the One who reveals the deep secrets of the word of God. The best enlightenment in any area comes from the Holy Spirit. As a matter of fact, the Holy Spirit also gives insights and ideas to those who ask Him. He also brings to one’s remembrance the things he/she has forgotten. The Holy Spirit is the Source of divine power (Acts 1:8). He empowers believers to perform signs and wonders. Believe me, without the Holy Spirit in the life of a Christian, such a person is empty and powerless because He is the seal upon the children of God. His fruit distinguishes one from those who practise religion. Matthew 7:20 says by their fruits, you shall know them.
Therefore, if He is not in your life, ask Him in today.
KEY POINT:
A Christian without the Holy Spirit is merely practising religion.
HYMN: O Spread The Tidings Round
- Oh, spread the tidings round,
Wherever man is found,
Wherever human hearts and
human woes abound;
Let every Christian tongue
proclaim the joyful sound:
The Comforter has come!
CHORUS
The Comforter has come,
The Comforter has come!
The Holy Ghost from heaven,
The Father’s promise given;
O spread the tidings ’round,
wherever man is found:
The Comforter has come!
- Lo, the great King of kings,
with healing in His wings,
To every captive soul a full
deliverance brings;
And thro’ the vacant cells
the song of triumph rings:
The Comforter has come! - O boundless Love divine!
how shall this tongue of mine
To wond’ring mortals tell
the matchless grace divine:
That I, a child of hell,
should in His image shine!
The Comforter has come! - Sing, till the echoes fly
above the vaulted sky,
And all the saints above
to all below reply,
In strains of endless love,
the song that ne’er will die;
The Comforter has come!
