How to have fellowship with the indwelling Spirit of God:

My Predecessor, Jesus introduced Me to His disciples as "Another Helper" (Jn 14:16). They were worrying what they would do when He would be taken away from them. He was not only their Master but also their Friend. For everything they approached Him, for help and consultation. He told them not to be troubled in their hearts because He would send Me in His place. His last sermon was about Me. I prompted His bosom disciple John to record it in his Gospel (Ch 14 & 16).

The very mention of My Name (HOLY SPIRIT) was allergic to people for a long time. They thought I belonged to the Pentecostal Church because I came down from Heaven on the Day of Pentecost. But over the years they have found out from the study of the Scriptures that I am a Gift from the Father to any of His children who would want Me (Lk 11:13; Acts 2:39).

Eventhough many Christians have now received Me, they stop with their initial encounter with Me. What John the Baptist referred to as the "baptism with the Holy Spirit" is only an introduction to a life with Me. I want you to walk with Me moment by moment (Gal 5:25). My Greek name is Parakletos, which means an ever-present Helper alongside. Would you, My child, give me a patient ear as I want to tell you how I can help you? It's all for your good, dear!
The Heavenly Father is a worship-lover. Eventhough angels have been worshipping Him nonstop from eternity past, He is not satisfied. He longs for worship from men and women. He looks for worshippers everywhere (Jn 4:23). Your worship actually does not add anything to His Being, but He delights in it because that's where intimate fellowship begins (Acts 17:25).

God through Moses had given to His people many laws on worship. It all became a mere ritual without spirit. But God is a Spirit, not a substance. Worship therefore must be spiritual (Jn 4:20-24; Acts 17:22-25). I am sent to enliven your worship. When you open up yourself to Me I will release your inner man so your soul will be raptured into joyful praise (Phil 3:3).
