OUTLINES
1. The Holy Spirit And His Relevance
2. Fellowshipping With The Holy Spirit

THE HOLY SPIRIT AND HIS RELEVANCE
The Holy Spirit is the third person in Trinity (1John 5:7), the person in charge of this dispensation and He is in total control of all situations (John 16:13-14).

He is called another Comforter (John 14:26), an expert in comforting those that mourn and are sorrowful (John 14:26). He is the Spirit of Truth (John 15:26), possessing all secrets (2 Kings 6:8-10). He is the Testifier (Romans 8:16) and the Teacher (John 14:26), full of all knowledge, wisdom and understanding (John 14:26).

He is the Power behind every activity of the church (Acts 1:8; Luke 24:49). Power for holy living and exploit is with Him (Acts 1:8, Luke 10:19). Power to change and transform a person is also with Him.

He is the revealer of the mind of God and the plan of the kingdom of darkness. (Romans 2:9-11). He convicts for genuine repentance (Ephesians 1:13-14). He is the Intercessor (Romans 8:26-27) and peace is available with Him (Mark11:23).

FELLOWSHIPPING WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT
Fellowshipping with the Holy Spirit is about seeking to know, developing intimacy with and carrying the favour of this higher Authority. Without the Holy Spirit you cannot go far in the Christian journey.

This indispensability was further established as He was the power behind our Lord Jesus Christ’s exploit all through His ministry on earth (Matthew 3:16; Acts 10:38).

For a believer, the fellowship with the Holy Spirit is not optional but mandatory, especially if such a believer will want to be relevant in the kingdom.

In the place of fellowship, issues are tabled before God – the believer will be comforted, challenges will become stepping stone and ways will be made where there is no way (Acts 27:10).

Fellowship can be sustained or lost with grave consequences (Psalm 51:11). Power to live a sanctified life and grace to pray through are also available in the place of fellowship with the Holy Spirit (2 Kings 6:8-10; Acts 10:9-16; Acts 16:25-39)

To enjoy fellowship with the Holy Spirit, a believer must abstain from sin at all cost and make himself available in His presence (Ephesians 4:30).

CONCLUSION: Fellowship with the Holy Spirit for mutual benefits.

QUESTIONS
1. In what ways is the Holy Spirit relevant in this dispensation?
