The Holy Spirit
Ruah ha Kodesh
Who is the holy ghost?
The Holy Spirit is not visible and yet very noticeable. He speaks, mostly in a low voice. The Holy Spirit comforts, sends, guides, warns and exhorts.
​
The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of the Father and as the name suggests, holy. He is the breath or breath of our God.
God's explanation of the Holy Spirit
My child!
Surely you've often wondered what the Holy Spirit has to do with everything. The Holy Spirit is called in Hebrew: Ruach HaKodesh and this means the holy (kodesh) spirit or breath. The Holy Spirit is mentioned at the beginning of the Bible: the Spirit of God hovered over the waters. he is my spirit Jesus promised his followers, including you, that he would send the Holy Spirit as a comforter or helper. But the Holy Spirit is much more. The Holy Spirit sets your heart on fire! It influences your will, your mind and your feelings. He ensures that the commandments are written in your heart and makes sure that you also remember and keep them.
My Holy Spirit equips you. He gives you plenty of gifts. He's preparing you to marry my son. Jesus and you should become more and more like each other.
The Holy Spirit gives you nine gifts . He bestows upon you wisdom, knowledge, faith and health , wisdom being the supreme gift you should strive for. Think of King Solomon asking me for wisdom. The Holy Spirit makes you work miracles. He endows you with prophecy, discerning spirits , speaking in tongues , and the gift of interpreting those tongues .
My child, as a fruit must ripen, so must your personality be brought to maturity. So that you can practice this, you will walk in the fruit of the spirit. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control .
Furthermore, he will equip you with various service gifts. They serve to build the church of Jesus.
But the Holy Spirit also ensures your safety and puts on your spiritual armor .
The Holy Spirit dwells in you, in your holy temple . He makes sure you keep this temple clean and convicts you when you have sinned. My Spirit guides you through inspiration, through truth and in love, so that you can become more and more like Jesus.
My spirit leads you to knowledge, awakens faith, strengthens the mind, leads to recognition, lets you confess and moves you to speak. The Holy Ghost guides you into truth by sharpening your conscience, making you obedient, molding your will, giving you authority, securing you with power, and moving you into action.
I am love and therefore it should not surprise you that the Holy Spirit imparts my love to you. He leads you into the community, provides security. He determines the feeling and he provides joy. The Holy Spirit heals and prepares you for ministry.
My beloved child, I know you very well and I want nothing more than an intimate relationship with you. Come and let my love and spirit fill you. Then you will experience how you become a new person. You will change into the child that I imagined and imagined. You are my beloved child. Put aside your vanities and your focus on performance. Learn to live in my presence. Let the Holy Spirit fill you and your life will be fruitful.
With love your Abba

Baptism of the Holy Spirit
Life as a Christian begins with conversion and receiving new life from God (rebirth, being born again). With God speaking into our lives and the work of the Holy Spirit leading to rebirth, we have not reached the goal of our Christian life, but are at the beginning of a new life. The baptism of the Holy Spirit is a striking and important experience that empowers us and prepares us for ministry.
The spirit baptism or better the baptism in the Holy Spirit means the baptism as already predicted by John the Baptist:
"I baptize you with water to repentance; but he who comes after me is mightier than I, so that I am not worthy to wear his sandals; he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire." (Matthew 3:11)
Ask for the Holy Spirit
Dear Heavenly Father,
you see that I regret an old way and that I want to walk in your ways. I ask your forgiveness and now in all humility I ask you to be filled with your Holy Spirit.
I allow the Holy Spirit to fill me with Your power and flow out of me and through me.
I also allow him to use my voice.
Let the fruit of the spirit* grow in me and change and shape my life.
Dear father,
use my speech to glorify you. take my whole life I give you the dominion.
​
Amen
