Work of the Holy Spirit - 2

Another list of works of the Holy Spirit found in another website, which seemed to have summarized from Dr John Owen's "The Communion of the Holy Spirit in His Love", but added two more points 8 and 9.
  1. The Spirit helps the believer remember the words of Christ and teaches what they mean.
  2. The Spirit glorifies Christ.
  3. He pours out the love of God in the Christian's heart.
  4. He witnesses to the believer that he/she is a child of God.
  5. He seals faith in the Christian.
  6. As the earnest of our inheritance, He assures the believer of salvation.
  7. He anoints the believer.
  8. As the indwelling Spirit He sheds the love of God abroad in the believer's heart. (Romans 5:5)
  9. He becomes to him the Spirit of supplication.
And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us. (Romans 5:5 KJV)
