The Fellowship of the
Holy Spirit
Through Jesus Christ we have been granted the
fellowship of the Holy Spirit. As Paul
wrote:
2
Corinthians 13:14 The Grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the Love of God,
and the Fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with you all.
And again:
Philippians
2:1
“Therefore if
there is any encouragement in Christ, if there is any consolation of love, if
there is any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and compassion…”
Philippians
2:2
“…make my joy
complete by being of the same mind, maintaining the same love, united in
spirit, intent on one purpose.”
To be in
fellowship with the Holy Spirit is to be at one with the purposes of God. There is a flow to the Spirit, and we enter
into that flow when we walk with Him.

As the prophet said:
Amos
3:3 KJV Can two walk together, except they be agreed?
It is through
the Holy Spirit that Christ dwells in our hearts (Ephesians 3:16-17). Thus
fellowship with the Holy Spirit is fellowship with Christ.
