PERSONAL DISCOVERY
(For you to do during the week)
PRAY
If you haven’t yet, ask a leader to pray with you to receive the Holy Spirit for yourself, and experience all that God has for you.
Put some time aside this week to pray intentionally, and continue to ask God to fill you with His Spirit. God is omnipresent. This means He is everywhere at all times and at all times we can encounter Him anywhere! Whether you’re praying in your room, in your car or at the beach, God is there with you, ready and willing to bless you with His love. Come to Him with an open and expectant heart and get ready to receive!
Here are some ways you can invite the Holy Spirit into your day to day life:
Memorize and stand on scriptures that speak of the promises and faithfulness of God.
Fill your mouth and mind with songs of praise to God.
As you read God’s Word, invite the Holy Spirit to guide you and speak to you.
Listen for the Holy Spirit in the ‘little’ things.
Surround yourself with people who are serious about their walk with God.
THIS WEEK’S VERSE:
ACTS 2:38-39
Peter said to them, “Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For the promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off, as many as the Lord our God will call to Himself.”
In week 7 we will learn about how being connected into the life of the church is important for our growth as Christians and how this blesses God, ourselves and others.
