    Holy Spirit. Having introduced concepts of the Spirit vs the flesh and given some scriptural base (especially from Corinthians) on how it is to apply to the Body of Christ; I thought that I would examine the Spirit of God itself to show how it is unique from other spirits in this world as well as similarities.

    Probably a basic distinction that can be made stems off from the previous discussion. Spirit beings whose source are from fallen angels and demonic entities rely on human sins to establish a foothold and more or less have men as puppets on a string. This becomes crucial in understanding why Christians must have an Ephesians 6 mentality. I have been affected myself in sleep particularly when whatever I think is God's protection seems to be of no avail from attacks. God is; in reality determining how much He will discipline us at all times; but if God could use a "messenger from Satan" against Paul ( 2 Cor. 12:7) and in fact allow Satan to affect Peter's mind to teach him to utterly depend on God ( Matthew 16:23); we certainly should be proactive ourselves. Our sinful nature as well as expressions of such give Satan and his minions legal action to either oppress or in some cases possess individuals. I am not about to debate if a Christian can be possessed outright but we certainly will be attacked.

    The Holy Spirit of course confirms with our spirit that we are indeed "children of God" ( Romans 8:16 roughly translated).

    Of course the obvious distinction of God is His "omni" everything (time; presence and authority). God in Isaiah 40:28 makes it clear that He never grows weary. Of course Christ did when He was in human form but in the Spirit He was always awake and alert; but now as in Psalm 121:4 "He who keeps Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep."

    I had thought that 1 Peter 5:8 says Satan doesn't sleep but it advises us to be ever vigilant. Spirit beings; however show no evidence of being tired in scripture. More in my nest installment.

    Big thx Richard H Priday. Spirits never sleep, so thru.

    God never sleep. We must becouse of the body.

    I try to remember that He is for us, and not against us, always, some time It's hard to remember that. We will never go back to the dark, Exhausting place we were in before we met Jesus. And if it hadn't been for Him, Would we have been there yet.

    There is a lot of encouragement in your posts, they surely inspire more ppl not only me.

    Take care in the world, always. We have to capture every thought. Se u, love you always. God bless you and yours. Revelation 12
