Once a person is filled with the Holy Spirit, what are the results in a persons life?But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law (Galatians 5:22,23).These qualities begin to show themselves in a persons life who is filled with the Spirit. The produce a Christlike character in the individual. These attributes include:
In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, you have been grieved by various trials (1 Peter 1:6).Peace
And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Jesus Christ (Philippians 4:7).Longsuffering
The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance (2 Peter 3:9).Kindness
And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God in Christ also forgave you (Ephesians 4:32).Faithfulness
Through the Lords mercies we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness (Lamentations 3:22,23).Results
Speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord, giving thanks always for all things to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ (Ephesians 5:19,20).Service
But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth (Acts 1:8).When the fruit of the Spirit has become evident in the believers life, the results are worship, thanksgiving and service.
