DAILY TRUTH - The Ministry Of The Holy Spirit
Episode Stats
Summary
In this episode, Pastor Joel reminds us that God is relational. God is personal, relational, and triune. He is the advocate, the helper, the counselor, and the comforter who fills us and gives us grace. In the same way that the Holy Spirit filled the womb of the virgin with the Son of God, He filled the waters and the sky with birds and fish as he brooded above the seas. And to this very day, in his salvific work, he fills the new creature, the new creation with his own indwelt presence.

but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.
00:00:27.220
God is personal. And in this, I might add that God is relational. He is triune. And we see the
00:00:36.480
Trinity in the very beginning of the book of Genesis. The Spirit of God we see in verse 2
00:00:41.480
of our text is hovering, or some translations say brooding above the waters. It's the very same
00:00:46.840
verbiage that's used of the Holy Spirit in Luke chapter 1, I believe it's verse 34 and 35, with
00:00:52.860
mary the mother of jesus she asked well how can this be since i have never known a man how could
00:00:59.560
i be the mother of the savior as a virgin and gabriel the angel says the holy spirit will come
00:01:06.040
and he will hover above you he will brood and you will conceive did you know that one of the chief
00:01:12.660
ministries of the holy spirit is that he has a filling ministry he filled the womb of the virgin
00:01:19.520
with the Son of God. He filled the waters and the sky with birds and fish as he brooded above
00:01:28.280
the seas. And to this very day, in his salvific work, he fills the new creature, the new creation
00:01:36.500
with his very own indwelt presence as we become the temple of the Holy Spirit himself. The Holy
00:01:44.360
Spirit fills creation. And in the same way that the Holy Spirit fills original creation that we see
00:01:50.340
in Genesis chapter 1, He fills the new creation. Not leaving us as orphans, as Jesus promised,
00:01:56.560
but giving to us the advocate, the helper, the counselor, the comforter who fills us
00:02:02.500
