8th March Sermon Discussion - "The Spirit and The Blood"

Hebrews 9:13-14

1. Warm Up: On a blank sheet of paper, draw pictures or images that come to your mind when you think of the Holy Spirit. Share with one another what those pictures or images mean to you.
2. Who is the Holy Spirit?
3. Why do we need the Holy Spirit? Review the 3 reasons from the sermon as to why the Holy Spirit is so important.

a) The Spirit of God illuminates God's perspective.
(John 16:13 The Spirit of God opens our eyes and helps us understand the reality of God's truth.)

b) The Spirit of God ignites God's passion
(Acts 2:1-4 The disciples of Jesus who were fearful of men and cowardly became courageous and God-fearing when the Spirit of God came upon them on the day of Pentecost. The disciples were set on fire for God. They began to speak in other tongues and Peter even preached the word of the Lord fearlessly and led the people to repent.)

c) The Spirit of God imparts God's power
(Acts 5:12 The apostles performed many miraculous signs and wonders among the people. Many sick were healed, those tormented by evil spirits were set free and more and more men and women believed in the Lord. These were all done through the power of the Holy Spirit.”)

Out of the 3 aspects of the Holy Spirit, which one do you need the most now in your life? Share with the group and minister to each other in the area that was shared.

4. As a cell group, what breakthroughs or miracles can we trust God for together? Let's pray together in anticipation for this to take place.
