Transformed by the Spirit
"We cannot use the Holy Spirit. The Spirit is to use us. Through the Spirit God works in His people to will and to do of His good pleasure. ' Only to those who wait humbly upon God, who watch for His guidance and grace, is the Spirit given." -ELLEN G. WHITE
The devotional studies in this book focus on the work of the Holy Spirit in your life. God wants to fill you with His Spirit. Once we surrender ourselves to God, He can then develop the character of Christ within us. Many qualities of Christ's character are presented in both the Old and New Testaments. In this 40 Days devotional study, we will consider those described in Paul's fruit-of-the-Spirit list-the list called "Peter's Ladder" in his second letterand Christ's descrip- tion of character development given in the Beatitudes.
This 40-days-of-study-and-prayer devotional is the eleventh in the 40 Days devotionals series. As with the first ten, this devotional is designed to prepare God's church for Christ's second coming and to assist them in reaching out to others in preparation for that glorious event.
Pull some close friends together and commit 40 days to focused prayer and devotion, and allow the Holy Spirit to transform your life.
