How To Seek The Holy Spirit, Desiring God explores the importance of seeking the Holy Spirit. The text begins by recounting Piper's reflection on his vulnerability and the need for the Spirit's strength in the face of potential persecution. Drawing inspiration from Corrie ten Boom's story, Piper highlights 1 Peter 4:12-14, where the promise of the Spirit's presence during times of trial is presented. He then delves into the specific roles of the Holy Spirit in the believer's life, outlining seven distinct aspects of the Spirit's work, including bringing truth, magnifying Christ, sustaining love, providing assurance, enabling speech, and offering personal presence. Piper concludes by urging readers to actively seek the Spirit through meditation on Scripture, faith in the word, obedience, and sincere desire. He emphasizes that the Holy Spirit's power is essential for new birth, victory over sin, spiritual wisdom, and ultimately, resurrection from the dead. The text serves as a powerful reminder of the Holy Spirit's vital role in the Christian life and the transformative power of seeking his presence.
