MESSAGE NOTES

A Love Story | Part 4

God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago. Ephesians 2:8–10 (NLT) Why should I enroll in the University of the Holy Spirit? 1. The Holy Spirit ______________________________________________. Samuel did not yet know the Lord because he had never had a message from the Lord before. 1 Samuel 3:7 (NLT) 2. The Holy Spirit __________________________________. Mary responded, “I am the Lord’s servant. May everything you have said about me come true.” Luke 1:38a (NLT) 3. The Holy Spirit ____________________________________________________________. Then I heard the Lord asking, “Whom should I send as a messenger to this people? Who will go for us?” I said, “Here I am. Send me.” Isaiah 6:8 (NLT) And the Lord came and called as before, “Samuel! Samuel!” And Samuel replied, “Speak, your servant is listening.” 1 Samuel 3:10 (NLT)
