The Holy Spirit in the Life & Ministry of Jesus

    We have seen that the prophet Isaiah predicted that the Messiah would be anointed with the Holy Spirit and would pour out the Spirit on His followers. We have seen that John predicted the Messiah would baptize with the Holy Spirit. Let’s take a look at the Spirit in the life of Jesus.

    Luke 10:21 – This text comes at the end of Jesus sending out the 70 on their commission to share the message of the kingdom. The Spirit revealed to Jesus what had been going on with the 70 missionaries with their success and, subsequently, Jesus rejoiced at that news.

    Luke 11:13 – Jesus promises that He would give the Holy Spirit to those who ask in humble obedient faith.

    Matthew 12:28-32 (Mark 3:29) – By rejecting the source of Jesus’ miracles, that of the Holy Spirit, the Pharisees were putting themselves in a position that was irredeemable.

    John 3:5-6, 8, 34 – The famous passage dealing with the role of the Holy Spirit in the new birth. We do not understand how the Spirit moves (as the song says), convincing men of sin, revealing Jesus through the Word, creating faith in Him. But we know that He does.

    At the end of the chapter, John writes that Jesus had the full assistance of the Holy Spirit to do what His mission was to accomplish: teaching the word of God and performing miracles to confirm that message.

    John 6:63 – Jesus gives credit to the Holy Spirit in this text of the message that He was preaching.

    John 7:39 – Jesus alludes to Isaiah 44:3, a passage we have seen is a prophecy of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. Yet at this point, the Holy Spirit had not yet been given as the prophets, John, and Jesus have prophesied because Jesus has not yet been “glorified,” a reference to His resurrection.

    Finally, we’ll look at the Holy Spirit in the lives of the disciples, as it is seen in the Gospel accounts.
