Communion with the Holy Spirit

We have spent a week emptying us of us. We spent a week becoming full of the Holy Spirit. Now, we transition from dealing with what is going on in us to walking in the depth of overflow. I am trusting by faith that you are already beginning to experience the incredible overflow from God.

In order for us to walk in overflow, we have to pass the point where the Holy Spirit moving in our lives is an event, and instead becomes a lifestyle. When we come to a place where the Spirit is inspiring everything we do, say, think, and feel, we are walking in communion, or fellowship, with the Holy Spirit.

This is what Paul is speaking of when he closes out his second letter to the Corinthian church (2 Corinthians). In 2 Corinthians 13:14, we see Paul wish that the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with them. And he wasn’t talking about a moment of fellowship with the Spirit – he was speaking of a lifestyle.

We see the Holy Spirit as a lifestyle as opposed to an event again in John 14:16. Jesus says here that He will ask the Father for the Holy Spirit for them so that He will be with them “forever.”

What if we woke every morning and our number one objective was to commune with the Holy Spirit? What would be different about our lives if we began our days asking Him what He would have us to do with the day He has given us? The direction of the Holy Spirit would take us to places we never dreamed we could go and would allow us to accomplish things we never thought we could accomplish. The Holy Spirit desires to be in fellowship, in communion, in conversation, in revelation with us every single day. He desires to show us things in the Word, in visions, and in dreams.
