TOPIC: DO NOT GRIEVE THE HOLY SPIRIT

TEXT: Ephesians 4:30-32

30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

31 Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:

32 And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

INTRODUCTION TEXT

The Holy Spirit is the promise made to believers by Christ before His ascension to heaven. This was fulfilled on the day of Pentecost when the disciples were baptized with the Holy Spirit and got empowered for service. In John 14:17, Jesus again spoke about Him saying "...The Spirit of truth whom the world cannot receive because it neither sees Him nor knows Him, but you know Him for He dwells with you and will be in you. " The Holy Spirit lives inside the believer to teach, guide, inform, comfort, reveal hidden matters, convict, empower for service, etc. His role in the life of a child of God is unquantifiable.

No child of God can function acceptably without Him. He has emotions and operates in an environment of love, gentleness, peace, patience, compassion and forgiveness. If any life does not provide a conducive environment for Him, He becomes grieved and leaves. This was the case with Samson in Judges 16:20. Therefore, put off behaviours like anger, stubbornness, unbelief of any part of God's word, bitterness, rage, immorality, greed, slander, malice and disobedience from your life, because they will definitely grieve Him. When you put these off, you will enjoy His presence and operations in your life.

Prayer: Father, may 1 never grieve your Holy Spirit with my body, spirit and soul in Jesus' name, Amen
