Understanding The Ministries Of The Holy Spirit: Part 3

The answer to chaos is the ministry/work of The Holy Spirit on earth!

Moses recorded by THE SPIRIT in Genesis chapter 1:

1 When God created the heavens and the earth,

2 the earth was completely formless and empty, with nothing but darkness draped over the deep. God’s Spirit hovered over the face of the waters. TPT

Before the work of The Holy Spirit began, the earth was formless and empty.  Those who do not have The Holy Spirit experience the same emptiness at a personal level.  When they find that the world cannot fill that emptiness, they will seek the spiritual.

Luke recorded by The Holy Spirit in Acts chapter 10:

34 Then Peter opened his mouth and said: “In Truth I perceive that God shows no partiality.

35 But in every nation whoever fears Him and works righteousness is accepted by Him.

36 The Word which God sent to the children of Israel, preaching peace through Jesus Christ-He is Lord of all-

37 that Word you know, which was proclaimed throughout all Judea, and began from Galilee after the baptism which John preached:

38 how GOD THE FATHER anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, Who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him.

The participation in the earthly ministry of Jesus included all Three in THE GODHEAD.  What was the result?  He went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil.  Good overcomes chaos, uncertainty, death, and destruction.

The Father, the Son, and The Spirit are all united in helping humanity, healing the sick, and in working against the devil.  In the end, the devil has no chance.

Paul wrote by The Holy Spirit in Hebrews chapter 9:

14 how much more shall the Blood of Christ, Who through the Eternal Spirit (The Holy Spirit) offered Himself without spot to God (THE FATHER), cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

Once again, all Three are all united in helping humanity.  Christ The Son offered Himself through The Spirit to The Father.

In reference to the Resurrection, all Three were involved.  The power of the Resurrection occurred through The Holy Spirit, the One Who operates in creative power here on earth!

Paul also wrote by The Holy Spirit in Romans chapter 1:

3 concerning His Son Jesus Christ our Lord, Who was born of the seed of David according to the flesh,

4 and declared to be the Son of God (THE FATHER) with power according to the Spirit of Holiness, by the resurrection from the dead.

The power that raised Jesus from the tomb was The Holy Spirit.  GOD THE FATHER raised THE SON by THE SPIRIT.

Recall how The Holy Spirit descended on Jesus. The Beloved Disciple wrote by The Holy Spirit in John chapter 1:

32  And John The Baptist bore witness, saying, “I saw the Spirit descending from Heaven like a dove, and He remained upon Him.

33 I did not know Him, but He who sent me to baptize with water said to me, ‘Upon whom you see the Spirit descending, and remaining on Him, this is He who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.’

34 And I have seen and testified that this is the Son of God (THE FATHER).”

Luke recorded by The Holy Spirit in Acts chapter 2:

1 When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.

2 And suddenly there came a Sound from Heaven, as of a Rushing Mighty Wind, and It filled the whole house where they were sitting.

3 Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and One sat upon each of them.

4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

Peter explained the event to the crowd who witnessed this:

32 This Jesus God has raised up, of which we are all witnesses.

33 Therefore being exalted to the Right Hand of God The Father, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, He poured out this which you now see and hear.

At Pentecost, The Son received from The FATHER The Spirit and poured out The Holy Spirit on the waiting disciples.  Every major stage in the whole plan of redemption from beginning to end is FATHER, Son, and The Holy Spirit.
