Bible Question:
how can i get the powers of the holy spirit? |
Bible Answer: bibleheat, A concise answer is sometimes difficult depending on what is being referred to and what you truly seek. I see it first and foremost an issue of whether you're saved- which I'll assume you are:-) With that assumption,1 Cor. 12:13 should clearly answer your question. I believe it to be a sovereign act of God upon salvation. Also, see Eph. 1:13-14 which talks about us being "sealed" with the Holy Spirit. Secondly, it really becomes a matter of abiding and yielding. Some pertinent verses would be Gal. 5:16- 25. Eph. 5:18 commands us to be (continually) filled with the Holy Spirit.
