Text (The Holy Spirit is a 7 component spirit, He is one but He is seven sided) Isa 11:1-2(get a tree so that you can use to clearly illustrate the 7 branches of the Spirit of the Lord) Isa 11:1-2.And there shall come forth a rod/shoot out of the stem of Jesse and a Branch shall grow out of His roots.  And the spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord.

BIBLICAL CHARACTER: JOB:(he was an upright man, blameless, rich, He had the fear of the Lord, had 7 sons and 3 daughters and was tested by Satan but never cursed God) Job 1:1There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job: and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God and hated evil. (Ask the children whether God in Heaven can testify of them like He did for Job)

MEMORY VERSE:

Acts 1:8 But you shall receive power after that the Holy Spirit is come upon you and you shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and in Samaria and to the ends of the earth..

Objective: Teach and Help the children understand the seven spirits of God

WHICH ARE THE SEVEN SPIRITS OF GOD?

1.        The spirit of the fear of the Lord(Job 1:8-9_)

Pro 1:7 the fear of the Lord is the beginning of Knowledge, but fools despise/refuse/hate wisdom and discipline/ instructions

2. The Spirit of revelation/disclosure

Daniel (means God is my King/judge). He could interpret dreams and visions of all kinds, writing on the wall Dan 2:19 During the night the secret was revealed/disclosed/made known to Daniel in a vision (why because the Spirit of God was in Him)

3. The Spirit of Might/Exploits/great things Dan 11:32…but the people that do know their God shall be strong and do exploits

When do we say you know your God? when you have a relationship with Him and the Spirit of God is in You.

BIBLICAL TRUETH: The Holy spirit of God makes me fear God and do great things in life

CHALLENGE FACTOR: do you have the fear of God In you?

POSITIVE CONFESSION: The Spirit of God will reveal to me all things like Daniel.
