The Person and Work of the Holy Spirit
TEXT: Ephesians 5:19-20
• The Ministry of the Holy Spirit in our lives imparts two important perspectives to our outlook on life. They are:
I. The Life of Faith
• A. For Salvation
• 1. In calling us to salvation (Rom 8:28)
• 2. In assuring us of salvation (Rom 8:16)
• B. For Family Relationships
• 1. Within God’s family (Gal 4:6)
• 2. Within our own family (Eph 5:18, 22-23)
• C. For Provision
• 1. Of power to live right (Gal 5:16)
• 2. Of conviction when living wrong (Heb 12:11; 1 John 4:13; Eph 4:29-30)
II. The Offering of Praise and Thanksgiving
• A. Praise and Thanksgiving are often expressed in song (Eph 5:19)
• B. It should come from the heart, not merely an emotion
• C. It is often a “corporate” response of praise and thanksgiving (Col 3:16)
• D. Thus, it is something that all age groups can be involved in (Psalm 148:12)
