ust for example, just suppose you are trying to married to this person, but this person is not compatible to you, and the Holy Spirit is trying to warn you of the danger, how does he communicate his message to you and how can you know for sure? The greatest problem of Christians is that we make bad decisions, and this bad decisions came about because we have not learn to master communication with the Holy Spirit, so he can inform us when we are walking into a death trap. There are several group of believers in the church, we have the carnal are immature believers, then we have the false believers, the bible call these false brethren, and we have the deceived believers. Finally we have the mature believers the bible call these the spiritual man. There are people who claimed to be fill with the holy spirit but are actually being possess with satanic spirits. It is only the Holy Spirit know who are his.
Little before our lord’s crucifixions, he begin to tell his disciples about his coming emulations. He also told them that he would sent the Holy Spirit to be their teachers and guide. So each believer is assigned a new guide and councilors here on earth and that is the Holy Spirit who came and fills the body of Christ here on earth the church. The problem is, due to the wickedness of sin and the foolishness of our hearts, we came up with our own version of what and who the holy spirits are. We reach the places where we sin even against the Holy Spirit and do not know. In this article I will only deal with how to know when the Holy Spirit is talking to you as a person. As to the personality of the Holy Spirit, his gifts, the evidence of being fill, and all the other goodies I will not deal with in this article.
CHRIST TURN US OVER TO THE
KEEPING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
John 16:13 (KJV) Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.
John 14:26 (KJV) But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. (helper (parakletos-Greek)
We refer to the Holy Spirit as Holy Spirit but truly Holy Spirit is not his name. We call him Holy Ghost, Spirit of God, Holy Spirit, The spirit. But none of those is his name. However we know he is a person because personal pronouns are use toward him over and over again.

Galatians 5:18
HOW TO KNOW WHEN THE HOLY
SPIRIT IS TALAKING TO YOU.
The Holy Spirit communicates to the believer spirit man, not to your body, but you hear his voice in your spirit.
Ephes. 3:16 (KJV) That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;
WHAT IS THE NEW MAN THE EPH 3:16 TALKING ABOUT?
Proverbs 25:28 (KJV) He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls.
Ezekiel 13:3 (KJV) Thus saith the Lord God; Woe unto the foolish prophets, that follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing!
According to Prov 25:28 Every person was born with a sprit, a soul and a body. When the person is converted the Holy Spirit clean up that human spirit that the person was born with. This clean up spirit is call the new man, and before the spirit was clean up it was call the old man.
1 Thes. 5:23 (KJV) And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Genesis 35:18 (KJV) And it came to pass, as her soul was in departing, (for she died) that she called his name Ben-oni: but his father called him Benjamin.
Job 14:22 (KJV) But his flesh upon him shall have pain, and his soul within him shall mourn.
THE OLD MAN = YOU SOUL AND
SPIRIT BEFORE YOU WERE CONVERTED.
Ephes. 4:22 (KJV) That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;
Col. 3:9 (KJV) Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds;
Ephes. 5:9 (KJV) (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)
THE HOLY SPIRIT WITNESS TO YOUR SPIRIT.
Romans 8:16 (KJV) The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
1 John 5:10 (KJV) He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son. Guides Into All Truth John 16:13 Acts 8:39
THE HOLY SPIRIT CREATE A DOUBT SYSTEM IN EACH BELIVERS.
Doubt is not all bad. Doubt is a noun a feeling of uncertainty. (Verb 1 feels uncertain about.) Doubt is only bad when it questions what it knows to be the truth. Police call this “an hunch” This is just the first stage when learning to fallow the leading of the Spirit, as times goes by you will hear his voice but in your spirit and not in your body. Not in your head as some people hears voice in their head telling them to go rape or go kill. Not in your stomach as voices coming from any part of your body. No spirit must be in your body except the spirit, which you were born with, what we call the old man, or human spirit. “ Fill with the spirit is and idiom” and does not mean that the Holy Spirit Himself come and physically live in you foot in your foot and hand in you hands, or like a bay live in a pregnant woman. It is you that go into him, “for in him we live and move and have our beings” Be careful how you interprets those fall upon and filled scriptures.
Christians call this the wooing of the spirit. Just for example, you are trying to married to this person, but this person is not compatible to you, the holy spirit is trying to warn you of the danger, how does he communicate his message to you and how can you know for sure? The Holy Sprit will create a doubt in your spirit. You know deep down in you that something is just not right here. This is where covetous, prejudice and racist Christians went off course. Because these emotions has a way to triggers off the doubt systems.
Acts 10:19-20 (KJV) While Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said unto him, Behold, three men seek thee. [20] Arise therefore, and get thee down, and go with them, doubting nothing: for I have sent them.
Acts 16:6 (KJV)
Now when they had gone throughout Phrygia and the region of Galatia, and were forbidden of the Holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia,
THE HOLY SPIRIT USES CIRCUMSTANCES
TO GUIDE HIS PEOPLE.
I found out that when people do not want me around it was always the Holy Spirit ways of telling me to get ready to leave, start packing up. Some people are always skeptical of me the first day they saw me, but as the weeks goes by they drop their guard, and start treating me good. But when I have exhausted all my efforts and the people still remain adamant, it was always the Holy Spirit uses that circumstances to show me that I am not in his will by being among these people. When a believer is in the will of God, even your enemy comes around. If you cannot win your mother in law or in laws over, this could be that you are out of God’s will in that marriage decisions. On my lost job the people work me like a mule and beat me verbally, defame and dehumanize me in every way they can. I quit, and resort to my part time job. The same week the part time job, pay was double, even though I put in the same amount of time. Do not read too much into Prov 16:7. Because what it is talking about is being in God’s will.
Proverbs 16:7 (ASV) When a man's ways please Jehovah,
He maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.
THE HOLY SPIRIT ALSO SPEAKS TO US
THROUGH THE WRITTEEN WORD.
John 14:26 (KJV) But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. (helper (parakletos-Greek)
1 John 4:13 (KJV)
Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit.
John 15:26 (KJV)
But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:
Acts 1:8 (KJV)
But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
Romans 8:26 (KJV)
Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
Luke 11:13 (KJV)
If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
Galatians 4:6 (KJV)
And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
1 John 5:6 (KJV)
This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.
SPIRIT OF LUNANCYA ND SPIRIT OF DEPRESIONS.
Philip. 4:7 (KJV) And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
The Holy Spirit pumps so much joy in His people that it even passes all understanding. Watch those depress and lunatic Christians. Something is wrong. Sound mind, is a work of the Holy Spirit, power, love all these are imparted by the Holy Spirit to his people.
2 Tim. 1:7 (KJV) For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
Matthew 17:15 (KJV) Lord, have mercy on my son: for he is lunatick, and sore vexed: for ofttimes he falleth into the fire, and oft into the water.
Matthew 17:16 (KJV) And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure him.
Matthew 17:17 (KJV) Then Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him hither to me.
Matthew 17:18 (KJV) And Jesus rebuked the devil; and he departed out of him: and the child was cured from that very hour.
The Holy Ghost Can Be SIN AGAINS.
1. Resisted (Acts 7:51)
2. Tempted (Acts 5:9)
3. Lied to (Acts 5:3-4)
4. Grieved (Ephes. 4:30)
5. Blasphemed (Matthew 12:31-32)
6. Insulted (Hebrews 6:4-6; Hebrews 10:26-29)
7. Quenched (1 Thes. 5:19)
8. Vexed (Psalm 78:40; Isaiah 63:10)
9. Quieted (Zech. 6:8)
10. Fellowshipped with (Phil. 2:1)
d [as your fathers did, so do ye] Rebellious children of rebellious parents of many generations. The Holy Spirit deals with rational souls and works upon the intellectual and moral faculties in order to enlighten, convince, and persuade. If man closes his mind to light, his will to reproof, his conscience to righteousness, and his emotions to his best good, then he reverts to total rebellion and must face the harvest of eternal hardness.
THE END
Come back for update soon.
Let us face the fact, no matter how much education we had on a subject we can go out there and made the worst mistakes of our life, that cause us dearly. Only Jesus Christ can help us with our decision-making.
Proverbs 3:6 in all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
Psalm 34:8 (NASB-U)
O taste and see that the Lord is good;
How blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him!
HOW TO BECOME A CHRISTIAN.
Many people went to court each year and received a terrible sentences from the judge, and because they have no knowledge, they did not know that they could have ask the court for mercy or leniency, and end up knocking off a few years just by asking, it is the privilege of every citizen.
Many people died and went to hell and never have the nerve to even ask God for mercy. Is there mercy for a hopeless sinner who has hurt all mankind? Yes!
Isaiah 7:11 (ASV)
Ask thee a sign of Jehovah thy God; ask it either in the depth, or in the height above.
Isaiah 7:12 (ASV)
But Ahaz said, I will not ask, neither will I tempt Jehovah.
Ezekiel 18:32 (ASV)
For I have no pleasure in the death of him that dieth, saith the Lord Jehovah: wherefore turn yourselves, and live.
First you must recognize that you are a sinner and need God mercy.
Romans 3:23 (KJV) For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
Then you must know that God sent his son Jesus to die for your sins.
1 Peter 2:24 (Living)
He personally carried the load of our sins in his own body when he died on the cross so that we can be finished with sin and live a good life from now on. For his wounds have healed ours!
YOU MUST KNOW THAT YOU CANNOT SAVE YOURSELF.
Ephes. 2:8 (ASV)
for by grace have ye been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God;
Ephes. 2:9 (ASV)
not of works, that no man should glory.
2 Peter 3:18 (ASV)
But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be the glory both now and for ever. Amen.
Zech. 4:7 (KJV)
Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it.
Eph 2:8 The Message Bible” “Saving is all his idea, and all his work. All we do is trust him enough to let him do it. It's God's gift from start to finish!
Eph 2:9 We don't play the major role. If we did, we'd probably go around bragging that we'd done the whole thing!”
There nothing you could do to save yourself , the only thing you could do is bowed your head and ask God to save you.
You must believe that there is a God.
Hebrews 11:6 (Living) You can never please God without faith, without depending on him. Anyone who wants to come to God must believe that there is a God and that he rewards those who sincerely look for him.
No other person can save you except Jesus.
Acts 4:12 (KJV)
Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Acts 4:12 (Living) There is salvation in no one else! Under all heaven there is no other name for men to call upon to save them."
Then you must know that God invites you to come to him.
Isaiah 1:18 (Living)
"Come, let's talk this over!" says the Lord; "no matter how deep the stain of your sins, I can take it out and make you as clean as freshly fallen snow. Even if you are stained as red as crimson, I can make you white as wool!
Do not wait until tomorrow to get save.
2Co 6:2 (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is] the accepted time; behold, now {is] the day of salvation.)
2Co 6:2 The Message Bible. “God reminds us, I heard your call in the nick of time; The day you needed me, I was there to help. Well, now is the right time to listen, the day to be helped.”
Delay not your conversion to the lord, put it not off from day to day. Remember that tomorrow is promise to no man. Accept the lord, go home and continue with your life, if the lord.. If the lord saves you in bad life style, he has some plan up his sleeve how to get you out of it, give him time to work out his salvation in your life.
WHOSEOEVER SHALL CALL.
Acts 2:21 (KJV) And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Romans 10:13 (KJV)
For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Ezekiel 33:11 (KJV) Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord God, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?
Now bow your head and pray this prayer.
Dear God, our heavenly father, I am a sinner and need to be save, would you save me this moment from all my sin? Save me now, because your son Jesus had died for my sin. Thank you for saving me and give me peace, in Jesus name.
From this day onward you will begin to feel a flood of joy and peace full your heart and mind. You must confess Jesus to others with your mouth. Tell what great thing the lord had done for you. Romans 10:9 (Living) For if you tell others with your own mouth that Jesus Christ is your Lord and believe in your own heart that God has raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
Then you need to start reading the bible, start reading from St Mathew.
1 Peter 2:2 (Living) Now that you realize how kind the Lord has been to you, put away all evil, deception, envy, and fraud. Long to grow up into the fullness of your salvation; cry for this as a baby cries for his milk. 1 Tim. 4:13 (KJV) Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine.
THE LORD WILL MAKE YOU HOLY IN HIS OWN TIME.
1 Peter 5:10 (KJV) But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.
OUR BODY WAS NOT REEDEM AT CONVERSION.
Romans 8:23 (GW) However, not only creation groans. We, who have the Spirit as the first of God's gifts, also groan inwardly. We groan as we eagerly wait for our adoption, the freeing of our bodies {from sin}.
Rom 8:21 that the creation itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the liberty of the glory of the children of God.
Rom 8:22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.
Rom 8:23 And not only so, but ourselves also, who have the first-fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for our adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body.
THE SINS OF THE BODY WILL NOT BE CONQUERED
LITERALY BY ALL SAINTS WHILE LIVING ON EARTH.
2 Cor. 5:10 (NASB-U)
For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may be recompensed for his deeds in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.
When the Lord redeemed us our body was not redeem, it was our spirit and soul. The changes took place in our spirit man. Not the body. The body will still continue to sin. If the believer do not know this they will become worried as to why am I still lusting? And became eaten up with guilt to the point where they experience no peace and joy.
Even though our body were not redeem, we who wanting to live up to certain standard, to please society, must bring our body into subjection, even thou we do not do that to buy salvation. But to prevent Satan from capitalized on it. But to bring this body into subjection take time. We saw belivers at the judgment seat of Christ in heaven being judge for the deeds of the body.
1 Cor. 9:27 (NASB-U)but I discipline my body and make it my slave, so that, after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified.
2 Cor. 2:11 (NASB-U) so that no advantage would be taken of us by Satan, for we are not ignorant of his schemes.
Romans 12:1 (GW)Brothers and sisters, in view of all we have just shared about God's compassion, I encourage you to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, dedicated to God and pleasing to him. This kind of worship is appropriate for you.
2 Cor. 12:7 (NASB-U)Because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations, for this reason, to keep me from exalting myself, there was given me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to torment me—to keep me from exalting myself!
SOME THING YOU OVERCAME IT BY IMPUTED GRACE.
2 Cor. 12:8 (NASB-U)Concerning this I implored the Lord three times that it might leave me.
2 Cor. 12:9 (NASB-U) And He has said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness." Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me.
“I saw a river of blood, flows from Calvary Mountain, I am in it and your are in it, and I am clean, clean” By Smith Wiggle worth.
We can sing with the song writer" I rise walk in heaven’s own light above the world and sin with heart made pure and garments white, and Christ en-throned with in. The cleansing stream I see I see I plunge, and O It cleans-eth me. O praise the Lord, it cleans-eth me, it cleans-eth me yes, cleans-eth me."
HOW TO CONTINUE IN THE FAITH.
Hosea 6:3 Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the Lord: his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth.
The first thing you will need to know is this. Beware of people who come laying hands on you say they are filling you with the Holy Ghost. That is how people get possess with demonic spirits. God will give you every thing you need to fit you out for his service in his own times.
You do not need to push any thing nor to make any thing happen. Wait until God make it happen.
A NEW MIND-SET.
After the lord save a person there are some things that the person must do on their own. All the work is not just up to Jesus. You must developed a different mind set, from the one you have before you were converted. Not a holier that thou mind set but a new mind.
Eph 4:22 That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts;
Eph 4:23 And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;
Eph 4:24 And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.
Eph 4:25 Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.
GIVE YOURSELF AWAY TO THE THINGS OF GOD.
1Ti 4:13 Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine.
1Ti 4:14 Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the presbytery.
1Ti 4:15 Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all.
1Ti 4:16 Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.
Jer 29:13 The Message Bible.
"When you come looking for me, you'll find me. "Yes, when you get serious about finding me and want it more than anything else,
