How does the Holy Spirit operate in a Christian’s life? When we look at the life of Christ, we are given clues to how Christ lived totally dependent on the Spirit’s power for his life and ministry. He also taught us specifically about the connection between prayer and the Spirit-filled life. Learn how Christ functioned as a Spirit-Filled man, and learn that we too are called to live Spirit-filled lives. Then learn from John 14:12-14 that Christ ascended to the right hand of God to give us His Spirit and that this gift is received and experienced through faith-filled prayer (John 14:13-14).
