Eph 4:30
Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God,
by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.

The Holy Spirit.

What do we learn in this verse?

The Holy Spirit is “of” God.
The Holy Spirit is God.
God the Father.
God the Son.
God the Holy Spirit.
The Mystery of Three in One.

The Lord God lives/resides in every True Believer.

The Lord seals us for the day of redemption.
We are “kept” by/for the Lord.
We are sealed in/by/for Him.

Jude 1:1
Jude, a bond-servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James,
To those who are the called, beloved in God the Father, and kept for Jesus Christ:

Therefore, we are told to not “grieve” the Spirit.
“Grieve” means to “distress”, “to cause sorrow”, “hurt”, “to make sad”.

We can grieve the Spirit.

How?

By stepping outside of the abiding of the Lord.
The Lord will never abandon us.
But, we can choose to not abide in Him.
Such grieves the Spirit.

Give heed to what the Lord says about abiding in Him…

Jhn 15:4
“Abide in Me, and I in you.
As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless it abides in the vine,
so neither can you unless you abide in Me.

 Jhn 15:6
“If anyone does not abide in Me, he is thrown away as a branch and dries up;
and they gather them, and cast them into the fire and they are burned.

 Jhn 15:7
“If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you,
ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.

 Jhn 15:9
“Just as the Father has loved Me, I have also loved you; abide in My love.

 Jhn 15:10
“If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love;
just as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love.

Abide in the Lord.

Do not grieve Him.

Watch what He will do!
