If you can understand him, he will help you and bail you out of troubles because he is the one that the
Holy Spirit indwells and relates with. This knowledge of how your spirit contacts you is critical to the success
of every Christian on the earth and for stepping into the supernatural.
Let us look at some ways by which your spirit contacts you.
Compulsion and Restraint.
How do you know that you should or should not do something?
There is either a compelling or restraining on the inside of you. It could be the spirit compelling you to do
or the spirit restraining you from doing.
Acts 16:7 After they were come to Mysia, they assayed to go into Bithynia: but the Spirit suffered them
not.
Compulsion means to make somebody do something by force or by strong persuasion—something that
limits one’s freedom of action. Compulsion is a strong inner pressure to go ahead. Therefore, it is possible
for your spirit man to compel you to do something.
Restraint is an equally strong inner pressure not to go ahead.
To compel is likened to a man under pressure to go to the bathroom; he is only relieved after answering
the call of nature. In the same way the spirit compels you. You are refreshed /feel free only when you do
what the spirit compels you to do.
Job 32:18-20
For I am full of words, the spirit within me compels me. 19 Behold, my belly is as wine
which has no vent; it is ready to burst like new wine skins. 20 I will speak, that I may be
refreshed: I must open my lips and answer.
You are only refreshed if you do what the spirit compels you to do.
You are preserved when you refuse to do what He restrains you from doing.
Perception
The word ‘perceive’ physically speaking can apply to your sight. But we are not dealing with
physical perception. To perceive something is to notice or be conscious of something, to be
conscious of somebody in the shadows or of something hidden.
Acts 14: 8-10
8. And there sat a certain man at Lystra, impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his
mother’s womb, who never had walked: 9. The same heard Paul speak: who steadfastly
beholding him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed, 10. Said with a loud
voice, Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped and walked.
That man’s faith would have gone unnoticed if Paul had not perceived in his spirit that he
had faith to be healed. He would have left that meeting still crippled, but Paul perceived and
spoke the word that launched him to his feet.
