What Is The Holy Spirit Like?

Jun 2, 2024    Pastor Ezra Stanton

Explore the transformative power of understanding the Holy Spirit in our latest sermon, "Spirit Filled Life: What Is The Holy Spirit Like?" This dynamic message clarifies common misconceptions and deepens our comprehension of the Holy Spirit’s nature and role in our lives.


The sermon begins by addressing a common mistake: referring to the Holy Spirit as "it." This term suggests an impersonal force rather than a divine person. By recognizing the Holy Spirit as a person—one of the Trinity along with God the Father and God the Son—we discover a deeper, more personal relationship. The Holy Spirit is not an object or a distant power but a vital, personal presence in our lives as believers.


Drawing from scripture, we explore key attributes of the Holy Spirit that align with those of God: omniscience, omnipotence, and omnipresence. These characteristics reveal a God who is all-knowing, all-powerful, and present everywhere, underscoring the Holy Spirit’s integral role in guiding and empowering us.

The sermon also delves into the practical implications of having a personal relationship with the Holy Spirit. Understanding that the Holy Spirit is not merely a passive presence but actively involved in our lives changes how we perceive guidance, comfort, and empowerment in our daily walk with God.


Today, we focus on the Holy Spirit's mind, will, and emotions—elements that affirm His personality and relational nature. This insight is crucial for believers striving to align their lives with God's will and purpose.

Join us as we learn to see the Holy Spirit not as an abstract force but as a personal guide, teacher, and friend. This message will equip you with the knowledge and understanding to foster a deeper relationship with the Holy Spirit, allowing you to live a truly Spirit-filled life.
