Intimacy with the Holy Spirit

Feb 22, 2025 • Pastor Bill Kalina

Pastor Bill elaborated on the profound connection we can share with the Holy Spirit. He emphasized that an intimate relationship with the Holy Spirit is not only desirable but essential for our spiritual growth and daily guidance. He reminded us that the Holy Spirit is always present, yearning to guide, comfort, and empower us through every season of life.

"To truly draw near to God," Pastor Bill explained, "we must open our hearts to the Holy Spirit, inviting Him into every aspect of our lives. Through prayer, worship, and reading His word, we allow the Holy Spirit to work within us, transforming our hearts and aligning our desires with God's will."

He encouraged the congregation to seek the Holy Spirit's presence actively, to listen to His gentle whispers, and to be attentive to His promptings. "The Holy Spirit is our advocate." When we cultivate this intimacy, we walk in the light of God's truth and experience the fullness of His love and power."
