Presentation transcript:

The Work of the Holy Spirit in the Old Testament I. How was the Holy Spirit involved in the Old Testament? The Holy Spirit worked in creation. 1. The Heaven of Heavens and the Angelic Orders (Ps. 33:6) 2. The Atmospheric Heavens (Job 26:13a)

3. The Earth (Gen. 1:1-2; Ps. 104:30; Is. 40:12-14) 4. Animal Life (Ps. 104:24-30) 5. Human Life (Job 33:4)

B. The Holy Spirit worked in the writing of Scripture (II Tim. 3:16a). 1. The Holy Spirit inspired holy men of God in the Old Testament (I Pet. 1:10-12; II Pet. 1:21). a. The Old Testament writers recognized that they were inspired by God, the Holy Spirit (II Sam. 23:1-2; Ezek. 2:2; Mic. 3:8).

b. The New Testament attributes many Old Testament verses specifically to inspiration of the Holy Spirit (Mt. 22:43; Mark 12:36; Acts 1:16; 4:25 [NIV]; 28:25 [Compare Is. 6:9-10]; Heb. 3:7; 10:15-16).

2. The Holy Spirit worked with men of the New Testament to ensure our having God’s word. a. The New Testament writers recognized that they were inspired by God (I Cor. 11:23; 15:3; Gal. 1:11-12; Eph. 3:3-5). b. Christ promised His disciples that the Holy Spirit would help them to provide an accurate accounting of His teaching and the events of His life (John 14:25-26).

C. The Holy Spirit worked in bringing men to God. 1. The Holy Spirit was striving with man (Gen. 6:1-3). The word “strive” also means to “contend or plead with.” 2. The Holy Spirit was often resisted in this work by the people of God themselves (Acts 7:51-53).

D. The Holy Spirit worked enabling men to do special work. 1. Building the House of God 2. Delivering God’s People From Bondage The Holy Spirit enabled the judges in super-human ways (Judg. 6:34; 11:29; 14:6, 19; 15:14).

3. Leading the People of God a. Moses and the elders of Israel were anointed with the Spirit (Num. 11:24-25). b. Prophets were enabled by the Spirit (I Kgs. 19:16; II Chr. 15:1; 20:14; Ezek. 3:12). c. Priests were enabled by the Spirit (Lev. 8:1-13, 20; 21:12). d. Kings were enabled by the Spirit (I Sam. 11:6; 16:13-14; I Kgs. 1:34-39).

4. Making Wise Decisions a. Joseph (Gen. 41:38-40) b. Daniel (Dan. 4:8-9, 18; 5:11-17; 6:3) E. The Holy Spirit is the subject of prophecies regarding the New Covenant (Is. 28:11-12; 32:15; 44:3; Ezek. 39:29; Joel 2:28-29).

II. What is the distinction between how the Holy Spirit operated in the Old Testament and how the Holy Spirit operates in the New Testament in relation to God’s people? A. There is different terminology connected with the Spirit’s activity in relation to man in the Old Testament.

In the Old Testament the Spirit of the Lord… 1. Rested upon men (Num. 11:25; Is. 11:2) 2. Came upon men (Judg. 6:34; 11:29; 14:6, 19; 15:14; I Sam. 10:6, 10) 3. Moved upon men (Judg. 13:25) 4. Fell upon men (Num. 11:29; Ezek. 11:5) 5. Poured out upon men (Pro. 1:23)

B. Old Testament believers were not “born of” or “indwelt” by the Spirit. 1. This new age of the Spirit was revealed by Jesus (John 14:16-17). 2. This new age of the Spirit was revealed to John the Baptist (John 1:29-34). 3. This new age of the Spirit was foretold by the Old Testament prophets (Ezek. 36:26-27; 37:14).
