Somebody Special: Part 4 – The Holy Spirit
Introduction:
In the last chapter we studied about Jesus Christ and how He came to save us from our sins, how He died, and was raised from death. We also learned that even today He continues to pray for us.
But perhaps you think that still isn’t enough. If you’re going to get out of the mess you’re in, you need someone here on earth who will stay with you, encourage you, and keep you from making more mistakes.
Surprise! You’ve got someone, and that someone is the Holy Spirit.
Prayer
God, please teach me about the Holy Spirit and what He can do to help me.
Before He died, Jesus explained to His disciples that He was going away to a place where they couldn’t follow Him for the time being. This made them very sad, but Jesus made them a promise.

Question 3 of 16
3. Question
I know I’ve felt like an orphan many times. I am an only child, and although I have two daughters, they live hundreds of miles away. They aren’t very good at writing or telephoning. So sometimes when I’m feeling down, I really feel like I’m an orphan, too.
But that is a phony feeling, because Jesus promised that He wouldn’t leave me as an orphan.

Question 4 of 16
4. Question
You might wonder how someone who died and went to heaven could come to us. Well, God provided a way. That way is the Person of the Holy Spirit.

Question 6 of 16
6. Question
We could spend the rest of our time together just discussing what these different names mean. We all know what a counselor is – someone who gives us advice. We know what a helper is. An intercessor is someone who prays for someone else. An advocate is a person who stands up for another. Lawyers are advocates.
The Holy Spirit is also a strengthener, and how we all need strengthening in our lives. Finally the Holy Spirit is our standby. That means someone who will stand by us at all times and walk along with us.
Talk about a prize package. When we receive the Holy Spirit, we really get the whole package!

Question 14 of 16
14. Question
In one sense, the Holy Spirit has a two-fold job, He works both personally in the life of the Christian, and He also works in the world.
First, the Holy Spirit brings people to Jesus. After that, the work He does in the individual’s life is called sanctification – a cleansing process that separates the Christian from the rest of the world and makes us fit subjects of His kingdom.
The Holy Spirit’s work in us lasts an entire lifetime. As we grow in Him and learn of Him, He gives us more and more gifts. Here are just a few.
16. List these gifts after the following scriptures.
Read Romans 5:5
And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to usRead Romans 8:2
Because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death.Read Romans 14:17
For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit,Read Romans 15:13
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.Read Galatians 5:22-23
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.Read II Timothy 1:7
For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.Read John 16:13
But when He, the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on His own; He will speak only what He hears, and He will tell you what is yet to come.-
