THE SANCTIFIER :
HOLY SPIRIT

9/26/2024
Calvary greetings to you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.Halleluyah to the
Almighty God. Thus far He has helped us to witness another year in The
Redeemed Christian Church of God, with the theme: THE SANCTIFIED.
God chose us in Christ before the foundation of the world to be holy and
without blemish before Him in love, predestinating us unto sonship through
Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will.
Sanctification gives you victory over sin and guarantees answers to prayers; it is
the bridge between your prayers and the answers.
Saying NO to sin is simply a process of grace by which a believer is separated from sin, becomes dedicated
to God's righteousness and set apart for a sacred purpose.
The Sanctified is the theme for 2024/2025 Zeal Edition, whereby our focus must be on how to please God
in holiness and truth.
I pray that the Almighty God will sanctify you and prepare you for His good works this year in Jesus' name.
Amen.
Yours in His Presence
Pastor (Mrs.) Folu Adeboye
Mother-in- Israel
Director, Directorate of Teens and Children Education,
The Redeemed Christian Church of God.

16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another

Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;


17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive,

because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him;
for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.
INTRODUCTION
The Holy Spirit is a person and as a Christian, we need to know that
the Holy Spirit has been a part of the Trinity of God since the
beginning of time. The believers at Ephesus were aware of their need
to live a better life, but they were not aware of the power of the
Holy Spirit to enable them to do so. Their experience demonstrates
the truth that without the Holy Spirit we cannot please God. Thus,
without the Holy Spirit we are incomplete Christians. In fact,
Scripture tells us in John 4:24, "God is Spirit, and those who worship
Him must worship in spirit and truth."
To know the Holy Spirit is to know the characteristics of the Holy
Spirit.
IDENTITY OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
In Acts 19:1-2, Paul came across some men who were confused about the
Holy Spirit. Many today are just as confused.
Some say that the Holy Spirit is nothing more than a feeling or experience.

What does the Bible tell us about the identity of the Holy Spirit?

He goes by many names.

The Spirit of the Father" - Matthew 10:20
The Spirit of the Lord" - Luke 4:18

The Spirit of grace" - Hebrews 10:29

The Holy Spirit is God.
The Holy Spirit has thoughts and a will. The Holy
Spirit can be grieved and even insulted. But He can
also be pleased as we rely on Him to give us the
strength to live in a way that's consistent with God's
plan for us.
The Holy Spirit thinks about believers in Christ and
responds to them.
He knows the Father's thoughts and communicates
those thoughts to them. When you pray or read the
Bible and sense God speaking to you through that,
that is an example of the Holy Spirit at work in your
life.
Let us always respect what
the Holy Spirit has revealed
about Himself.
Holy Spirit has
Invitation interest in you, come
to Him now and
surrender to Him
