Names of the Spirit


Meditate on some of the various Names of the Holy Spirit found in Scripture:

”You are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you.
Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His.”
(Romans 8:9)

”The Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive,
because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him,
for He dwells with you and will be in you.”
(John 14:17)

The Anointing
“But the anointing which you have received from Him abides in you,
and you do not need that anyone teach you;
but as the same anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie,
and just as it has taught you, you will abide in Him.”
(1John 2:27)

The Promise of the Father & Power from on High
“Behold, I send the Promise of My Father upon you;
but tarry in the city of Jerusalem until
you are endued with power from on high.”

be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of
sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.”

into your hearts, crying out, ‘Abba, Father!’”
(Galatians 4:6)

He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.”

that He may abide with you forever”

but by the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of flesh, that is,
of the heart.”

“Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose,
will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot,
counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing,
and insulted the Spirit of grace?”

but on your part He is glorified.”
