THE PERSON AND MINISTRY OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

Theme Scriptures: John 14:16-20 Acts 1:8

Learning Objective: to provide a firm understanding into the absolute, essential, active
and required ministry of the Holy Spirit in the life of every Christian.

Note: The infilling of the Holy Spirit and the baptism of the Holy Ghost aren’t the same
thing. The word baptism is taken from the Greek word “baptizo”, which means to be
immersed or dipped into. The Holy Spirit immersed us into the body of Christ the day
we got born again. (1 Corinthians 12:13) The infilling however means you are filled with
God’s Spirit and given supernatural ability as a witness or proof producer of the reality
of Christ’s life – Acts {1:8} But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come
upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and
unto the uttermost part of the earth.

Who is the Holy Spirit?

Today, it’s the presence and power of the Holy Spirit resident in the Church (the body of
Christ) that sets Christianity apart from all the religions of the world. It’s not possible to
live the real Christian life without the Holy Spirit. (Romans 8:9) You cannot have the
character of Christ without the Holy Spirit. (Romans 8:13)

Who is the Holy Spirit? He is the Spirit of God, known also as the third person of the
Godhead. Why? That is because He is the last of the trinity to be known to us even
though the scriptures reveal Him first. God operates in three distinct personalities yet
one. 1 John 5:7, “…there are three that bear record in heaven, the father, the word and
the Holy Spirit and these three are one”: What God says (His revelation) has the same
witness or bears proof (testimony) of His personality and the Spirit who performs the
acts of God bears the same witness with His Word. Mathew 28:19 reveals the three
personalities of God to us. See also Mathew 3:13-17 at the Baptism of Jesus.

Everything God does outside of His throne is by and through the Holy Spirit, who
proceeds from the Father and makes His presence manifest or evident; He’s the active
agent of the Godhead who carries out the acts of God: John 15:26 But when the
Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, [even] the Spirit of truth,
which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:

The Holy Spirit is the one that carries and communicates the presence of God. He brings
us the presence of Jesus and God the Father and makes that presence real to us. We can
enjoy the fellowship of the Father and Jesus through the Holy Ghost. He is the
messenger or the conveyor and communicator of the presence and blessings of God.

Isaiah 63:9 - In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved
them: … {63:10} But they rebelled, and vexed his Holy Spirit…The Holy Spirit mentioned
in verse 10 is called in verse 9, “the Angel or messenger of God’s presence.” He’s the one
who takes God’s presence from place to place all over the world. It is the reason we can
know Jesus is real and believe in the Word of God.

The Holy Ghost has come to the earth in the Name of Jesus and takes the place of Jesus
here on the earth. Holy Spirit isn’t a name but a description of His character and person!
He was sent by God the Father in the Name of Jesus and doesn’t have a name of His own:
John 14:26 But the Comforter, [which is] the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in
my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance,
whatsoever I have said unto you.

He’s exactly like Jesus and here to do whatever Jesus would have done. Remember, He
was the one who empowered Jesus to do all He did: Acts 10:38 How God anointed Jesus
of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and
healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him. He is here to help us
claim everything that belongs to Jesus since we are God’s heirs and joint-heirs with
Christ. (1 Corinthians 2:9-12)

The Ministry of the Holy Spirit in the life of a Christian

Until the Holy Spirit anointed Jesus, His ministry and the miraculous didn’t begin. Acts
10:38 say’s “How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power:
who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God
was with him.” In Luke 24:49, the Lord Jesus instructed the disciples to wait in the city
of Jerusalem until they were endued with power from on high and on the day of
Pentecost, they were clothed with the supernatural power to preach and teach the
Word of God. (Acts 2:4, 1:8) The Holy Spirit would infuse their words with divine energy
to minister Christ to their hearers! When a man receives the Holy Spirit, they receive the
dynamic ability to live the Christian life successfully as a witness of Jesus.

The Holy Spirit as the Comforter – When Jesus introduced the Holy Spirit in John
14:16-17, He referred to Him as Alos Parakletos; one called to go alongside. The first
word given to us in the English language for “Alos Parakletos” is “Comforter.”He was
going to ask the Father to send the disciples “another comforter” just like himself. The
Bible say’s of Him, “…who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed
of the devil; for God was with him.” Jesus himself was a comforter to many.

The Greek phrase, ‘Alos-Parakletos’rightly describes the character of the Holy Spirit.
There are two words for “another” in the Greek: one is “Heteros” and the other “Alos”.
“Heteros” refers to another of a different kind while “Alos” refers to another of the same
kind. Jesus said, “I will pray the Father and He shall give you ‘Alos Parakletos...’
Parakletos - referring to one just like Himself (coming in His place and stead) to go
together with (accompany) those that receive Him as a comforter. Now because of the
Holy Spirit, we don’t miss Jesus!

The Seven Synonyms of the Holy Spirit - These really have to do with His ministry in
the believer’s life; who He is to the believer. May we go ahead to look at each of the
seven synonyms for the word ‘comforter’ (Paraklat) as they relate with the ministry of
the Holy Spirit in a believer’s life. They are counsellor, helper, intercessor, advocate,
teacher, strengthener and standby.

Counsellor – when you receive the Holy Spirit to live in you, He becomes your
counsellor to advise you and help you make the right decisions at critical moments. The
Psalmist say’s of counsel: Psalms 16:7 I will bless the LORD, who hath given me counsel:
my reins also instruct me in the night seasons.

David talks about ‘My reins’ that is his ‘inward man’ instructing him. It is the Holy Ghost
who instructs you and guides you from within: John 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit
of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but
whatsoever he shall hear, [that] shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come... So
we can receive guidance and direction about God’s will for our lives as we fellowship
with the Holy Ghost.

Advocate – as an advocate, the Holy Spirit is our legal representative who speaks on
our behalf to defend us and engage our adversaries (challengers and oppositions). He
intervenes and takes charge with us and doesn’t just watch as we confront forces and
circumstances that attack us. Because of Him, we can never be disadvantaged. When
people are judging you wrongly for example and saying evil things about you, He will
show up at the right time. Just tell yourself, “I can never be discouraged,” praise the
Lord. He is that kind of intercessor, an advocate and counsel for the defence.

The Holy Spirit is a helper - As our helper, He assists us to do all that God has called us
to do. Philippians 2:13 - For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of [his]
good pleasure. His ministry in your life is to help you become everything God has
planned for you to be and receive everything He’s planned for you to have.

David the Psalmist calls the Holy Spirit ‘a very present help in trouble’ (Psalms 46:1);
His presence with you is something you should never doubt or have reservations about.
God never gives the impression that we can be disadvantaged at all. He has given you all
you require to emerge victorious from any situation: Romans 8:26} Likewise the Spirit
also helpeth our infirmities…

You need to realize that the Holy Spirit is more willing for, and committed to your
success than you could ever be. He knows every help you would ever require in carrying
out your assignments in life better than you do and He’s ever willing to provide that
help. He knows everyone and everything you need to fulfil your purpose and destiny
and if you would ask Him, He’ll help you locate them. He’s come to give us divine
wisdom with which to live a successful and victorious life.

Intercessor – the Holy Spirit carries out His intercessory ministry through us. When a
Christian is confronted with a difficult matter or is in some kind of trouble, the Holy
Spirit is the one that will pray for them. Although He doesn’t do this on His own because
it would be illegal for God to do that. He prays for that believer only through another
believer in Christ who is filled with the Spirit. In effect He works through us, urging us to
pray about His concerns and then takes over the prayer Himself in groaning’s the
scripture says: Romans 8:26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we
know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit Himself maketh
intercession for us with groaning’s which cannot be uttered...

It says we don’t always know what to pray about let alone how to do it. Now this prayer
isn’t by us but through us. Groaning’s of the Spirit isn’t talking about speaking in
tongues. It isn’t us doing the prayer but the Holy Ghost expressing deep emotions such
that God who knows the heart of the Spirit knows what is in His mind.

Romans 8:27 And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what [is] the mind of the Spirit,
because he maketh intercession for the saints according to [the will of] God.

He that searches the heart or spirit of man is God, He also knows what the mind of the
Spirit is, and the Spirit knows how to make intercession for the saints according to the
will of God. Praise the Lord

He is our teacher - (1Corinthians 2:12; 1 John 2:20; John 16:13).

When we receive the Holy Spirit, He indwells our spirit to ministers as a teacher.
There’s an anointing the Spirit of God brings into our lives, to give us insight into the
things of God:

1 John 2:27 - But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye
need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things,
and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.

Because of the Holy Spirit, God ceases to be a mystery. The things of God can only be
spiritually understood and this is why we need the Holy Spirit. He reveals the realities of
God’s kingdom by unveiling God’s Word to our spirit: 1 Corinthians 2:12 - Now we have
received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know
the things that are freely given to us of God...

God’s Word is truth, it is reality and is it the Holy Spirit who guides you into that reality:
John 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth:
for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, [that] shall he speak: and
he will shew you things to come...

The Strengthener – Our natural limitations and weaknesses are actually opportunities
to have the Spirit minister to us as a strengthener. He functions through you to ensure
everything works out just right as you actively participate in whatever it is you are
involved in. Weakness no longer describes you if you have the Holy Spirit. Take the
Apostle Paul for example. When he was wounded and assaulted: seemingly broken
down by outside factors, He was made strong by the Holy Ghost (2 Corinthians 12:9-10)
The Holy Spirit strengthens you with might in your spirit or inner man; energizes you
with miracle working ability. (Ephesians 3:16 and Colossians 1:11) It is no wonder that
Paul could say, “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. He had come
to acknowledge the strengthener in him in the person of the Holy Spirit. In Psalm 27,
David declares, “... The Lord is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid?”

The Standby – sometimes there are situations that may arise making you feel like you
have run out of everything: in terms of your own abilities or resources. That may be in
strength, information, ideas, options, and so on. At such times, the Holy Ghost steps in as
your standby. Hallelujah

In those moments, when you seem to have failed (at your wits end) He will show up and
He never fails. Paul the Apostle had experiences that unearthed certain weaknesses in
His life. Praise God that even in the midst of his weakness, the Holy Spirit was at hand to
strengthen him: he says, “I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in
persecutions, in distresses for Christ’s sake: for when I am weak, then am strong.” (2
Corinthians 12:9-10)

He’s like a standby generator, when you run out of electricity and your power source
shuts down, then a standby generator kicks off immediately so you continue to use the
electricity. You can expect a miracle because you have a Standby. Hallelujah. He will
energize your spirit supplying you with the necessary requirements; is it knowledge, is
it wisdom or may be understanding? He say’s “My grace is sufficient for thee: for my
strength is made perfect in weakness.”

How to receive the Holy Spirit

The Holy Spirit has been made available for all to receive - Acts 2:17. The only
requirement for receiving the Holy Spirit is for one to be born again. He is God’s gift to
the Church, His children - Acts 2:38-39: Then Peter said to them, “Repent, and let every
one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you
shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 “For the promise is to you and to your
children, and to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call...” All the
believing Child of God needs is to receive Him by faith just as they received Christ as
Lord.

All of God’s blessings are in Christ and you can only receive from God in faith: Galatians
3:14 - That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ;
that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith… The Holy Spirit will
respond to the one that has a hunger to receive Him – Mathew 5:6, Luke 11:13

If you haven’t received the Holy Spirit since you’ve been born again, Galatians 3:14 says,
“…that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.” Simply say, “In the
Name of Jesus Christ, I open my heart now, and I receive the Holy Spirit.” Then by faith,
receive as simply as you received Christ. While thanking Him, you may even now be
filled with the Spirit, speaking with tongues or prophesying. Glory to God!
Jesus tells us something very instructive in Mathew 12:43-44 in describing the one that
is born again and without the Holy Spirit: “When an unclean spirit goes out of a man, he
goes through dry places, seeking rest, and finds none. 44 “Then he says, ‘I will return to
my house from which I came.’ And when he comes, he finds it empty, swept, and put in
order...

Their “spirit” is swept and garnished but, empty. Consequently, they easily fall into
temptation and sins. They would be unable to control their fleshly appetites or restrain
themselves from evil. It’s only through the Holy Spirit that one can mortify the deeds of
the flesh and canal desires. (Romans 8:13) demonstrating the character of Christ!
Christians who don’t have the Holy Spirit are vulnerable to Satan, to his attacks,
manoeuvres and manipulations.

SPEAKING IN TONGUES AND ITS PURPOSES – What is it anyway one may ask?

Speaking in tongues is an outpouring/outflow of divine communication from our inner

most being to God; when you speak in tongues, it’s your spirit that prays, even though
the Holy Spirit is the one that grants you the language or utterance. 1 Corinthians 14:14:
“For if I pray in an [unknown] tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is
unfruitful.”It is communicating with God directly through a spiritual language formed in
us by the Holy Spirit. It is the prayer of the recreated human spirit.

Speaking in tongues is a spirit-to-Spirit communication where you speak divine

mysteries to God in a language that only He understands – 1 Corinthians 14:2 say’s, “For
he that speaketh in an [unknown] tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no
man understandeth [him;] howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.” It will activate
the power within the Christian to cause miraculous and supernatural happenings in
their life.

It has been observed that many Christians would rather pray more in the language they
understand than in tongues and yet that is the lesser of the two. Paul said in 1
Corinthians 14:15, “What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the
understanding also...” From this scripture, praying with the understanding is the “also,”
but many Christians have it the other way round. It‘s the reason many of them are
overwhelmed with challenges. Praying in tongues takes precedence over praying with
the understanding. No wonder Paul could say in 1 Corinthians 14:18,“I thank my God, I
speak with tongues more than ye all...”

Reasons and benefits for speaking in tongues

1. It is a sign of the believer - Jesus stated that speaking in new tongues would be one
of the signs to identify those who have believed in His Name and are born again– And
these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they
shall speak with new tongues... (Mark 16:17)The Holy Spirit imparts new tongues to the
recreated human spirit when He fills an individual. Acts 2:4 say’s, "And they were all
filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave
them utterance." Speaking with other tongues regularly will enrich a Christian’s life
spiritually.

2. A means of spiritual edification or spiritually building up the Christian. 1 Corinthians

14:4, "He that speaketh in a [spiritual] tongue edifieth and improves himself..." The Greek
word translated ‘edifieth’ means to construct or build up, to embolden or charge up just
like you would a battery so it functions more efficiently. When we speak in tongues we
are built up, emboldened, improved and strengthened in the spirit. You activate the
God-life when you speak in other tongues, making you more formidable to withstand
anything and resist the devil! Speaking in tongues works together with the Word to
build ones spirit man: Acts 20:32 And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the
word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among
all them which are sanctified.

3. To embolden the Christian – We Just mentioned that one of the meanings of the
Greek word translated ‘edifieth’ is embolden or to make bold. Speaking in other tongues
is the solution to fear and timidity! If you are ever timid about anything, speak in
tongues. As a Christian, you ought to know that God hasn’t given you a Spirit of fear. (2
Timothy 1:7) Speaking in tongues stops all fear; it emboldens you and builds up your
inner man so strong enabling you to gain the dominion over your adversaries. It will
also empower you to preach the Gospel with boldness.

4. Provides us with Heaven’s vocabulary - 1 Corinthians 14:2. For he that speaketh in

an [unknown] tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth
[him;] howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.

God has given His children a supernatural means of communication with Himself. Paul
states in 1 Corinthians 14:14, "For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but
my understanding is unfruitful." Notice he say’s, "My spirit prayeth." The Amplified Bible
adds, "my spirit [by the Holy Spirit within me] prays." You are talking to God in a divine,
supernatural language. No matter how many languages you are able to speak and
fluently articulate, there’re certain realities we can’t adequately communicate or
express to God, and in the spirit realm with the vocabulary (words) of man’s earthly and
corrupted languages. That is why God imparts to us the divine ability to speak in other
tongues, so we can have the right language (vocabulary) to communicate with Him.

5. To build up our faith - Romans 10:17 say’s “So then faith [cometh] by hearing, and
hearing by the word of God.” Your faith level is raised every time the Holy Spirit unveils
God’s Word to your spirit. You move from one level of faith into a higher and greater
one! When that happens, that new level becomes your highest level of faith at that
particular point in time. So in Jude 20 we are told that when you have attained that
highest level of faith, you can build yourself up from that level into a higher one by
praying in the Holy Ghost: Jude 20 But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most
holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost.
You will be built up and established at that level of faith to be launched into a higher
level. Then, you’re always operating at your best, your most holy or sanctified faith!

6. To glorify God- Acts 10:46 “For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify
God...” There is a depth in fellowship with which you will worship the Lord when you
are filled with the Holy Spirit and are able to sing in other tongues. Ephesians 5:19 say’s
to us, “Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and
making melody in your heart to the Lord;” the term ‘spiritual songs’ is referring to songs
of the spirit. Paul refers to the same thing in I Corinthians 14:14-15, “For if I pray in an
[unknown] tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful. What is it
then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing
with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also.”

Singing with the spirit is singing in other tongues. These songs come out of your spirit,
not from your understanding. Remember, God [is] a Spirit, scripture says, “...they that
worship him must worship [him] in spirit and in truth.” Worshipping in the spirit is a
higher and deeper level of fellowship with God.

7. Praying in tongues refreshes and revives you – Isaiah 28:11-12 “For with
stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people. To whom he said, This
is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they
would not hear…”

Praying in tongues refreshes and revives you. Apostle Paul stresses the same thing in 1
Corinthians 14:4 when states that, “He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth
himself….”In other words, he charges up, builds up, repairs, or refreshes himself. As a
Christian, you should always be excited and motivated about the things of the Spirit; and
the way to continually fuel the inspiration of the Spirit and keep the fire of soul-winning
burning in your heart is to consistently pray in other tongues. While there are those
praying, “Revive me oh Lord,” you’re revived when you speak in other tongues.

8. Brings forth the leading of the Spirit –For as many as are led by the Spirit of God,
they are the sons of God... (Romans 8:14) As a child of God, you ought to live your life by
the leading of the Spirit perpetually. Speaking in tongues helps to transport us into
consistency with the Holy Spirit, allowing us to be led of Him to receive guidance and
direction about God’s will for our lives. We become more receptive to the ministry of the
Holy Spirit owing to the interaction between the Spirit of God and our spirit – 1
Corinthians 14:2.

God’s children should never be in the dark nor find themselves in unpleasant situations
where they don’t know what to do. Praying in tongues affords us the opportunity to
receive divine guidance and direction of the Holy Spirit for our lives. John 16:13 -
Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall
not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear,[that] shall he speak: and he will
shew you things to come... it also helps to open your spiritual eyes to understand the
scriptures in a greater light; the eyes of your understanding are enlightened and this
helps you become more receptive to the ministry of the Holy Spirit.

The Seven Spirits of God

In Isaiah 11:2, we are introduced to a remarkable revelation about the Holy Spirit,
expressed in seven unique characteristics of the Holy Spirit to help us understand and
function in the fullness of the Spirit. It doesn’t suggest that there are seven spirits but
refers to the seven different ways in which the Holy Spirit operates manifests Himself;
seven separate and independent manifestations of the Holy Spirit in the life of the
Christian which is indicative of the fullness of the Spirit of God.

The Gifts of the Holy Spirit, the Fruit of the spirit and the Ministry Gifts

These are also referred to as the manifestation of the Spirit! They are tools with which
God equips us for the work of ministry. These gifts bear witness or evidence of the truth
of God's Word and His calling upon a man's life - 1 Corinthians 12:8-10.

These nine manifestations or gifts of the Holy Spirit can be further divided into three
categories:

i. Three spiritual gifts that reveal something – revelation gifts: these are spiritual
gifts that reveal something; they enable one to know or see a truth about another
or situation. They include: the word of knowledge, the word of wisdom and the
discerning of spirits.
ii. Three spiritual gifts that do something or accomplish – power gifts: these
include: the gift of faith, the working of miracles and the gifts of healings.
iii. Three utterance or inspirational gifts, that is spiritual gifts that say something -
These include: the gift of prophesy, the gift of diverse kinds of tongues and
interpretation of tongues

Note: All of the gifts of the Holy Spirit are supernatural; we aren’t talking of natural
abilities here. Every one of them is a supernatural manifestation of the Spirit of God.

Ministry gifts are those people called and who are anointed by God to help equip and bring the
saints to maturity in Christ. In Ephesians 4:11-12, the Apostle Paul lists for us and tells us the
purpose of the fivefold ministry gifts, which the Lord Jesus gave to the Church:

EPHESIANS 4:11-13

And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and
teachers;12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the
body of Christ:13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of
God, unto a perfect [spiritually mature] man, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of
Christ..
Purpose of all the ministry gifts is:

i. The perfecting of the saints –training God’s people so they are equipped and fully
furnished to fulfill God’s plans
ii. Edifying the body of Christ, this is the building up and growth of the body of Christ
iii. Unifying men in faith and knowledge. To help the body of Christ come to the same
revelation and understanding of the Gospel of Christ
iv. Perfecting the Church in Christ and Bringing men to maturity in Christ. The word
"perfect" here means mature or full-grown, talking about coming to spiritual maturity.

Note: Ephesians 4:11 says that Jesus gave these ministry gifts unto men and1 Corinthians 12:28,
says that God set the ministry gifts into the Church. God gave ministry gifts to man, and God set
them in the Church — not man. No man calls you to the ministry; it is a divine call: Hebrews 5:4
- And no man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God...

The fruit of the spirit referred to in Galatians 5:22-23 are the characteristics or
qualities of the recreated human spirit, built-in fruits we are expected to manifest as we
grow and mature in the knowledge of the Word to think and act accordingly. When we
are born again, we receive a new spirit that is imparted with the life, nature and
character of God which is the reason for these qualities and characteristics. We are trees
of righteousness that have to bear these fruits of righteousness as branches in the Vine;
members of the Body of Christ.

Our Christian lives ought to be based on nothing else but our walk and fellowship with
the Holy Spirit; that’s the secret to a life of absolute and unlimited success. The life of the
Christian should be exceptional (extraordinary), and this can be made possible only by
the infilling of the Holy Spirit. God desires that we receive the infilling of the Spirit,
whereby He fills us with all His fullness. Ephesians 5:18 - And be not drunk with wine,
wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit. We have been called into a life of
unending success and the secret is continually being filled with the Spirit.

With the Holy Spirit, you can experience productivity, growth, increase, expansion, and
progress in every area of your life: Isaiah 32:15
