The Ideal Man

The Power of Prayer

Principle Workings of the Holy Spirit

There are thirteen principles believers must understand to remain in the presence of the Holy Spirit. These thirteen principles are clearly printed in the New Testament Bible, but many believers simply over look them. Prayerfully, I hope this enlightens the children of God as we seek to know Him through the power of His resurrection and the anointing of His Holy Spirit.

As we recall the Spirit of God came upon Jesus like a dove and remained with Him as John testified in the wilderness. But have you notice the Spirit doesn’t always remain with believers? Why is this? Often times we grieve the Holy Spirit with carnal thinking or the speaking of unkind words.

The bible uses the example of a Dove to represent the Holy Spirit did you know that pigeons and doves are from the same family, but act totally opposite of one another? Pigeons easily come to humans, doves shy away. Pigeons are boisterous when food is offered and do not scare easily. Doves on the other hand fly away at the first sign of loud commotions and will wait to eat its’ food in peace. Pigeons are easily tamed by humans, doves are virtually impossible to tame. So it is with the Spirit of God. If believers act contrary to the word of God the Holy Spirit can not remain with them.

How do will remain in presence of God the Father through the Holy Spirit? By following the principles outlined in the New Testament.

1. First believers must be born of the Sprint. John 3:7 “You must be born again…So it is with everyone born of the Spirit” To bring forth the rebirth a sinner must believe in the promises of God and repent with a sincere heart and profess by mouth Jesus Christ is Lord.
2. Believers must receive Father’s Counselor. John 14:16 “and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever.” This Counselor is the Holy Spirit.
3. Believers must open their hearts to receive counseling and teaching from the Holy Spirit. John 14:26”But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said.”
4. The Holy Spirit testifies about the Father and believers must testify as well. John 15: 26-27 “When the Counselor comes…He will testify about me. And you also must testify”
5. Believers must understand the Holy Spirit comes to convict the world. John 16:8 “He will convict the world of guilt in regard to sin and righteousness and judgment.”
6. Believers must yield to The Holy Spirit guidance. John 16:13 “But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all truth.”
7. The Holy Spirit fulfills the believers’ joy! John 16:22 “your grief will turn to joy…No one will take away your joy.”
8. The Holy Spirit will speak through believers. Matthew 10:19-20 “do not worry about what to say or how to say it….for it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.”
9. The Holy Spirit commissions believers for ministry. Matthew 28:19 “Therefore go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and the Holy Spirit.”
10. The Holy Spirit gives believers unlimited access to the Father’s blessings upon asking. Luke 11:10 “For everyone who asks receives, he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.”
11. Believers must not speak against the Holy Spirit. Luke 12:10-11 “But ANYONE who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven.” This is because the Holy Spirit encompasses the Father and Son. Some have spoken against Jesus and others against the Father. With sincere repentance those individuals can be save. But for those who speak against the Holy Spirit, which encompasses them both, as the ambassador to God’s kingdom there is no forgiveness.
12. At times believers must wait upon the Holy Spirit to move, showing us what the Father’s plan is for our lives. Acts 1:4-5 “wait for the gift my Father promised…in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.”
13. The Holy Spirit validates the believers as witnesses to all ends of the earth. Acts1:8 “you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”

Understanding and following these steps will lead to deeper fulfilling relationship with Holy Spirit; therefore, bringing you as a believer to greater understanding of God the Father. And remember this level of understand surpasses the limited canal mind of man.

God Bless!
