ROOM FOR THE SPIRIT 151
member has unique purposes and characteristics.
What I want you to know is that the Spirit is not weak.
He is not immature or incapable of speaking for Himself.
The Holy Ghost is perfect, powerful, and glorious.
The Spirit deserves our worship. We should put into
practice what we have been singing about for generations:
"Praise God from whom all blessings flow.... Praise
Father, Son, and Holy Ghost."
How do you recognize Him? It's as simple as that little
voice you hear when you are about to fall asleep, the voice
that reminds you, "You haven't prayed today." Or He may
say, "You haven't read the Word today." That's the Spirit
speaking, tugging at your soul. You know Him already, but
He yearns for you to know Him more.
The Lord predicted what would happen to you when
you made a place for the Spirit. He said, "He who believes
in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow
rivers of living water" (John 7:38). And what was that
anointing He was talking about? "But this He spoke
concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would
receive" (v. 39).
God has a detailed master plan for your life. His
anointing and His Spirit are included in the blueprint: "Now
He who establishes us with you in Christ and has anointed
us is God, who also has sealed us and given us the Spirit in
our hearts as a deposit" (2 Cor. 1:21-22).
Have you made room for the Holy Spirit? All He asks is^
a place in your heart.
