Publisher's summary

How to Be Filled with the Holy Spirit, first published in 1952, is a collection of four sermons by preacher and writer A.W. Tozer. The series explains the Christian relationship to the Holy Spirit, who he is, and how to receive him.

How to Be Filled with the Holy Spirit provides a deep exploration of the third-and least understood-part of the Holy Trinity.

The first sermon, titled Who is the Holy Spirit, begins with an explanation of who exactly he is. For he is a person, although one that is not made of physical matter. "He is a person..." Tozer writes, "with all the qualities and powers of personality. he is not matter, but ge is substance." As a spirit, he can penetrate physical matter. He can be all around us and within us, if we are ready to receive him. Tozer writes, "He has not weight, nor measure, nor size, nor any color, no extension in space, but he nevertheless exists as surely as you exist."

In the second sermon, The Promise of the Father, Tozer explains how the Holy Spirit came to us here on Earth. The arrival of the Holy Spirit is the realization of God the Father's promise to us. The Holy Spirit is God's gift, sent back after Christ's resurrection and ascension.

The next sermon, How to be Filled with the Holy Spirit, asks vital questions. Are you sure you want to be filled with the Spirit? Tozer asks, "Do you want him to be Lord of your life? That you want his benefits, I know...But do you want to be possessed by him?...Are you sure that you want your personality to be taken over by one who will expect obedience to the written and living Word?"

The final sermon explains How to Cultivate the Spirit's Companionship. For those who are fully committed, they must treat the Holy Spirit as a living person and honor the Lord Jesus Christ. "As we honor Jesus," he says, "the Spirit of God becomes glad within us."
