10 Bible Verses on the Works of the Holy Spirit
My posts on the Holy Spirit have been very popular. The following are verses which tell of the different works of the Holy Spirit. This is not an exhaustive list, but are a good place to start. If you are feeling studious, you might like to make a list of everything you can learn about the Holy Spirit in the New Testament. This is what is referred to as a topical Bible study. You pick a topic you wish to learn about and then look up all the verses on that topic. By doing this, you will know exactly what the Bible says about a subject. You will then know when you read something that isn’t true. Many people do not understand how the Holy Spirit operates in our lives. My daughter, who is in the 7th grade, had a lesson on the Holy Spirit a few weeks ago in Sunday School. Her teacher told me that none of the girls knew anything about the Holy Spirit except he came into their hearts at salvation. After you have studied the Holy Spirit in the Bible, then teach this to your children and grandchildren.

1 Corinthians 12:7-11 (NKJV)
But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all: for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit, to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills.
Galatians 5:16-18 (NKJV)
