The Bible tells us that He is the third person of the trinity, that He is a counselor and helper, and that He gives us power to live out our lives as believers. So why is the Holy Spirit so often forgotten?
The purpose of this guide is to provide a primer on who the Holy Spirit is, how He works, and how we can interact more deeply with Him. Our hope is that as you engage with the following pages and resources, you will be encouraged to more deeply understand and embrace the Holy Spirit in all of your life.
In John 14, Jesus tells His disciples about the coming of the Holy Spirit.
“And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you forever, even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and will be in you...
These things I have spoken to you while I am still with you. But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.”
John 14:15-17; 25-26
As you look to the person of The Holy Spirit, spend some time inviting in His presence as the Helper of your soul. Ask Him who He is and how He wants to move. Now, let’s focus on embracing Him on this journey.
We will take time throughout this guide to look at the Holy Spirit’s nature, names, personality, attributes, works, gifts, titles, and activities. The hope through this exploration is for us to understand Him more deeply and encounter Him more thoroughly in our lives.
