Summary

The Holy Spirit is not elusive, easily offended, or inconstant in His commitment to your growth. He knows you completely and desires to be your close friend. Join us on today's episode as Graham shares three key truths to help UNLOCK a life of sensitivity to the Holy Spirit.

Key Scriptures:

+ Romans 8:26. Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.

+ 1 Corinthians 6:19. Don’t you know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have from God and that you are not your own? You have been bought with a price; therefore, glorify God in your body.

+ John 16:13-15. However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth … He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you. All things that the Father has are Mine. Therefore I said that He will take of Mine and declare it to you.

0:00.0	Welcome back to the Brilliant Perspectives Podcast.
0:05.2	I'm your host, Jalen Bowden, here with you for another episode of Learning Powered
0:10.6	by the Heart.
0:11.6	Today, we're continuing on with this month's theme by talking all about what it looks
0:17.2	like to be sensitive to the Holy Spirit.
0:20.7	And here at Team Brilliant, our prayer for you today is that this episode would be a launching
0:26.7	point, because there's always an open invitation to engage in deeper friendship with
0:31.6	our teacher, helper, and confederer, who we like to call the Genius Holy Spirit.
0:38.2	Let's jump in as Graham shares three key truths to help unlock a greater level of sensitivity.
0:49.7	This week, we're going to explore sensitivity to the Holy Spirit.
0:54.6	It's a question that a lot of people ask, how can I learn to be sensitive to the Holy Spirit?
1:02.8	And sometimes it seems like they're asking it because there seems to be a perception that he is
1:08.0	elusive or easily offended or fickle. It's so not true. The Holy Spirit is robust and joyful.
1:19.5	I consider him my close personal friend. He's always for me. He's always excited about what he's
1:28.4	going to show me next. Romans 8.26 says likewise, the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses.
1:38.8	For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Holy Spirit himself
1:46.3	makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. He knows us so completely
1:53.4	that he can express everything that's in our hearts to the Father, sometimes in just a sigh.
2:00.3	He's full of energy. He's always up for anything. Always willing to share his wisdom, his passion,
2:09.6	and his joy. So let's lose any idea that he's fragile or flighty. Sure, he got to appear as a dove
2:20.1	when Jesus was being baptized, which I think was totally fun for him. But he's so not a bird.
2:27.6	He's your best friend. He's your teacher. He's your helper. And he's the best comforter in the world.
