Step 2: The Holy Spirit
When Jesus rose from the dead and left this earth, He said God would send the gift of the Holy Spirit to those who believed in Him. The Holy Spirit is God, here on earth. The Holy Spirit is invisible. God gives us the gift of the Holy Spirit when we accept Jesus Christ as our Savior and Lord. We can then ask God to fill us with His Holy Spirit each and every day.

It is like an electric light it is dark until you turn on the power. God does not expect us as Christians to live a godly life in our own power He has given us the gift of the Holy Spirit. With the Holy Spirit in us, we can live a holy life and can tell others about Jesus. “Walk in the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desires of the flesh.” So you can ask God to forgive you your sins; ask Him for His help to live a godly life each day; and ask Him to fill you each day with His Holy Spirit. God has given the gift of the Holy Spirit to those who accept Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. When Jesus left this earth, He said that God His Father would send the Holy Spirit to be in His disciples. If you are a Christian, you can ask God to fill you with His Holy Spirit each and every day.
