As we explore the Holy Spirit’s work from Genesis to Pentecost, we discover the Holy Spirit has been present throughout history. And He’s with us in our everyday life.
We were never meant to follow God alone. How comforting it is to know that the Holy Spirit is already closer than we think.
May we continue getting to know the Holy Spirit even better. And may we embrace the truth that a relationship with Holy Spirit is vital to our Christian walk.
Reflect
- Based on Jesus’ words in John 14:16, what can we learn about the Holy Spirit?
- How does it feel to know that the same Holy Spirit who hovered over the waters in Genesis 1:1–2 and hovers like an eagle over its young as in Deuteronomy 32:10–11 hovers over you?
- Based on Genesis 37:5–11, how can the Holy Spirit speak to us even while we sleep?
- How does the story of Eldad and Medad in Numbers 11:16–26 show that we don’t have to earn the right for the Holy Spirit to empower us?
- When have you experienced the Holy Spirit’s love as we read in Isaiah 43?
- How does developing skills or talents help us experience the Spirit as we see in Exodus 31:1–6?
