So we receive the holy spirit and we go on being empowered and living in the power of the holy spirit through a faith which is faith in a heard message about jesus hes talking about the gospel 3 begun and live by the spirit. I may even be called to be an elisha to someone who is running on empty gently turning his or her attention away from me and toward the replenishing power of the holy spirit in his or her life it is pouring out to others but once again the pouring comes from the spirit within us. Living in the power of the holy spirit starts when you get before god james 48 talks about this when james says come near to god and he will come near to you this first step is all about. Finally the holy spirit is the promise of the father god will always and forever be our source of divine power and the holy spirit is god dwelling in us in summation the holy spirit is gods promise to humanity one will receive the holy spirit when people accept christ and then the holy spirit will cover and protect you like a cloak
