As you probably know, the number seven usually refers to "completion, fulfillment or perfection" in the scriptures. It is the most common number used in the book of the Revelation. Isaiah refers to seven spirits that will be upon the Christ in Is. 11:2. The all-encompassing "Spirit of the Lord" is listed first and the other six are discriptive attributes of that Holy Spirit. The Lord also used seven descriptive attributes in revealing Himself to Moses in Ex.34:6-7. When God told Moses to tell the people that His name was "I AM", He was saying that He was what ever the people needed at any given time, thus the many descriptive names for God among the Children of Isreal (the Lord is my Banner, the Lord is my Healer, my Peace, ect.) All these point to the completness and sufficiency of our God. Perhaps the Lord will show you the answer to your question using some of these ideas.Mr.Book | ||||||

The Lord is so great and all-encompassing that He has to relate to us on a level that caused us to understand that we can't fully understand. So, yes, The Holy Spirit - but thankfully, we can't define Him fully or understand all that He does. As we continue to seek Him and draw near Him, He has promised that He would draw near to Us.
