The Holy Spirit is not a power for you to use — He is a divine Person who wants to use you. This section invites you to examine your relationship with each member of the Godhead and to open yourself to being led, filled, and directed by the Holy Spirit.
Many believers unconsciously treat the Holy Spirit as a power source — something to be tapped into for miracles, emotional experiences, or ministry success. But the Holy Spirit is a divine Person with a mind, a will, and feelings. He is not your servant; you are His.
"Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own." — 1 Corinthians 6:19
All blessings come from the Father, who is the one true God, through the Son (who is the one Lord), by the Holy Spirit, and all thanksgiving returns to the Father through the Son, by the Holy Spirit. Any prayer that is not seasoned by the Son and the Holy Spirit is rejected by the Father, because the Son and the Holy Spirit are both directly related to Him, just like Eve and Seth were directly related to Adam. There is no other way for man to access God. Any means other than the Holy Spirit or Jesus Christ used to pray to God would actually channel the prayers to demons or Satan.
Jesus taught us to pray "Our Father." Come to Him as a child — with dependence, trust, and reverence. He knows what you need before you ask. Pray: "Father, I come to You in Jesus' name…"
Jesus is our High Priest who intercedes for us. He is the way to the Father. Pray to Him directly as Savior, Lord, and Friend. Pray: "Lord Jesus, I ask You to…"
The Spirit is your Comforter, Teacher, and Sanctifier living inside you. Ask Him to fill you, lead you, use you, and produce His fruit in you. Pray: "Holy Spirit, I yield to You today…"
The key question is not "How can I use the Spirit's power?" but "Holy Spirit, how do You want to use me today?" The disciples at Pentecost were not operators of divine power — they were vessels who had emptied themselves and waited. The Spirit used them mightily because they yielded completely.
This week, begin each morning with this simple prayer of surrender:
Watch carefully throughout the day for His promptings — to speak a word, to hold your tongue, to pray for someone, to turn away from temptation. Each time you obey, you build a deeper and more sensitive relationship with Him.
"For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God." — Romans 8:14
