“For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.” (Romans 8:14)
Exactly how are we be led by the Holy Spirit?
Exactly how does the Holy Spirit communicate to all of us in this life?
If the Bible calls the Holy Spirit our Guide and Teacher in this life, then this means He will attempt to communicate to all of us from time to time.
Otherwise we will never be able to pick up from Him exactly what He is trying to teach us or tell us to do.
The very first thing we need to know if we want to learn how to be led by the Holy Spirit is that
We can develop a direct personal relationship with Him
Just like you already have with God and Jesus.
Here are two key verses from the apostle Paul telling us that we are allowed to have direct communication and direct fellowship with the Holy Spirit Himself:
“The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all.” (2 Corinthians 13:14)
“Therefore if there is any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit …” (Phillippians 2:1)

John 15:1-8, Possibly one of the most mis-used and abused passages in the Bible; Israel is the unfaithful vine, Jesus is the True Vine; Unbelievers get burned, believers get lifted up and washed to bear more fruit; All Abiders bear fruit; Bema Seat rewards, or Judgment Day
This is a collection of some of the best writings on the importance of the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer. We need to take the role of the Spirit more seriously.

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

8. John 3:8 “The wind blows
where it wishes, and you hear
its sound, but you do not know
where it comes from or where
it goes. So it is with everyone
who is born of the Spirit.”
10. The Holy Spirit is a divine
person; co-equal with God the
Father and God the Son and of
the same nature; He was active in
the creation; in His relation to the
unbelieving world He restrains
the evil one until God's purpose is
fulfilled;
11. He convicts of sin, of judgment
and of righteousness; He bears
witness to the Truth of the Gospel
in preaching and testimony; He is
the agent in the New Birth; He
indwells, seals, endues, guides,
teaches, witnesses, sanctifies and
helps the believer.
13. John 14:16 “And I will ask the
Father, and he will give you
another Helper (parakletos), to
be with you forever…”
John 14:26 “But the Helper, the
Holy Spirit (pneuma)…”
14. “When we speak about the Holy Spirit,
we speak about the breath of God,
breathing in us. The Greek word for
“spirit” is pneuma, which means
“breath.” We are seldom aware of our
breathing. It is so essential for life that
we only think about it when something
is wrong with it.
15. The Spirit of God is like our breath.
God’s spirit is more intimate to us than
we are to ourselves. We might not often
be aware of it, but without it we cannot
live a “spiritual life.” It is the Holy Spirit
of God who prays in us, who offers us the
gifts of love, forgiveness, kindness,
goodness, gentleness, peace, and joy. It is
the Holy Spirit who offers us the life that
death cannot destroy.” – Henri Nouwen
18. 1. Convicts of sin - John 16:7-8
2. Regenerates the spirit – Titus 3:5-

4:305. Guides and speaks – John 16:13
6. Transforms/sanctifies – 2 Cor.

8. Fills – Ephesians 5:18
19. “It is possible to
engage in a lot of
“spiritual” activity
but fail to grow.”

“God in My Everything”
20. Romans 7:15, 19-26; 8:1-2 “I do not
understand my own actions. For I do not
do what I want, but I do the very thing I
hate.”
19 For I do not do the good I want, but
the evil I do not want is what I keep on
doing. 20 Now if I do what I do not want,
it is no longer I who do it, but sin that
dwells within me.
21. 21 So I find it to be a law that when I
want to do right, evil lies close at hand.
22 For I delight in the law of God, in my
inner being, 23 but I see in my members
another law waging war against the law
of my mind and making me captive to
the law of sin that dwells in my
members. 24 Wretched man that I am!
Who will deliver me from this body of
death?
22. 25 Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ
our Lord! So then, I myself serve the law
of God with my mind, but with my flesh I
serve the law of sin.
24 Wretched man that I am! Who will
deliver me from this body of death? 25
Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ
our Lord! So then, I myself serve the law
of God with my mind, but with my flesh I
serve the law of sin.
23. 1 There is therefore now no
condemnation for those who are in
Christ Jesus. 2 For the law of the Spirit
of life has set you free in Christ Jesus
from the law of sin and death.

anxiety, intensity,
intolerance, instability,
pessimism and wobble,
