The desire of God’s heart is not only to be worshipped by man but to be one with man and make man one with Him. The only way He can do this is by getting into man as life and being man’s life and person. God created man in His image and with His likeness, […]
The Secret of God’s Salvation: the Consummated Spirit with our Regenerated Spirit
Christ today is the life-giving Spirit, the Spirit of reality, coming to us to reach us, touch us, unite Himself with us, saturate us, mingle us with Himself, fill us, constitute us, and build us up into His habitation (see 2 Cor. 3:17; 1 Cor. 15:45). The Spirit is not “a power” or “a ghost”, […]
Being Open to the Shining of the Sevenfold Intensified Spirit with Our Spirit
In our study of the golden lampstand we need to pay special attention to the seven lamps (see Zech. 4:2; Rev. 4:5). These seven lamps are the seven Spirits of God (the sevenfold intensified Spirit) as the eyes of Jehovah (see Zech. 4:10), the seven eyes of the Lamb (Rev. 5:6), and the seven eyes […]
Real Prayers are the Holy Spirit Within Man Expressing God’s Desire Through Man

Concerning the matter of prayer we all need to admit that we don’t really know how to pray and what to pray as is fitting – we don’t know how to pray in such a way that we touch God’s desire and move His hand. This is our weakness (Rom. 8:26-27), and the Spirit with […]
Praying in the Holy Spirit by Praying in the Mutual Fellowship of the Two Spirits
![What does it mean to pray in the Holy Spirit (Jude 20)? Paul also says something similar when he says, Nobody can say, Jesus is Lord, except in the Holy Spirit (1 Cor. 12:3). [in the picture: Jude 1:20-21]](https://i0.wp.com/www.agodman.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Jude1_20-21-praying-in-the-holy-spirit.jpg?fit=300%2C201&ssl=1)
The real significance of prayer is to contact God in our spirit and to absorb and inhale God Himself. We need to have our mind renewed and any religious concepts removed so that we may see what prayer really is in God’s eyes. In Jude 1:20 we see that we need to pray in the […]
our mingled spirit is a spirit of faith and the way for us to abide in the Lord
Today, we are so privileged to know that the spirit of faith here refers to our spirit mingled with the Holy Spirit! Faith is not in our mind – rather, what we have in our mind what we have is just doubts. Faith is in our spirit because it is mingled with the Holy Spirit! We must exercise such a spirit of faith to believe and speak (see Psa. 116:19 and 2 Cor. 4:13). Faith is a reaction to the appearing of God, and it is absolutely of our spirit. In our spirit we can know God and it is here that we need to live a crucified life in resurrection, just like the apostles did for the carrying out of their ministry (see note 2 in 2 Cor. 4:13).

the Spirit with our spirit is the secret of participating in God’s dynamic salvation
We can be Christians for many years and only “accidentally touch our spirit”, not knowing that we have a mingled spirit and that the Lord as the Spirit is joined to our spirit (1 Cor. 6:17). We need to pray that the Lord would enlighten us to see and know our mingled spirit – the divine Spirit joined to and mingled with our human spirit – so that we may enter into the intrinsic significance of God’s dynamic salvation in Christ (Rom. 8:2; 2 Cor. 13:14; Acts. 26:18; Eph. 1:13-14). If we know our spirit, we will refuse to live, do anything or go anywhere apart not in our spirit! The Christian life is altogether a matter of living and being in our spirit!
