Where in the Bible do you see the Spirit at work?

But where in the Old Testament do we see the Spirit?

The Father, Son and Spirit are known throughout Scripture. God’s word informs us of each person of the Godhead. The verb form of the word Spirit is “spirare” which means to breathe and come forth form. 

But, who is this person of the Spirit that we meant to experience? What does it mean that He is the Spirit of life? In this series, we will learn more about the Holy Spirit, and to start us off, we will be looking at what the Old Testament says, in Ezekiel 37.

In the "Sermon on the Mount", we see the Lord Jesus' preaching to His disciples of the life and culture of the kingdom of heaven. Where the holy God reigns and rules over His people, people have repented of their old way of life and turned to a new way of living. How then can we be perfectly righteous?
