Give Thanks for the Holy Spirit! (John 14:23-27)

The Day of Pentecost, June 5, 2022

The Spirit Marches Victorious Through the Word

First Reading: Genesis 11:1-9. At Babel, sin led to God confusing people’s language. Grace would lead God to share the gospel in many languages on Pentecost.

Second Reading: Acts 2:1-21. On Pentecost, the disciples proclaimed the gospel. Through their words, the Holy Spirit unleashed his power.

Gospel and Sermon Text: John 14:23-27. Give Thanks for the Holy Spirit!

The Holy Spirit can give us the strength and the push to share the Gospel when we might typically be too shy or hesitant.

As forgiven disciples of Jesus, we have the Holy Spirit working around our weaknesses to accomplish God’s will.
