Holy Spirit

The Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity in Christianity, often referred to as the “Comforter” or “Paraclete.” In prayer, the Holy Spirit is believed to intercede on behalf of believers, guiding and empowering them to pray according to God’s will. The Bible teaches that the Holy Spirit helps believers to pray effectively, making intercession for them with groans that cannot be expressed in words (Romans 8:26-27). When praying, one can ask the Holy Spirit to guide and empower their prayers, seeking to align with God’s will and purpose.

That is why I said the Spirit will receive from me what he will make known to you.”
