How to Be Filled With the Holy Spirit: Including Filled With the Spirit...Then What?

Summary: The Spirit-Filled Life
Review: [This review refers to the 4 chapter, 58 page version of this work.]

This booklet is only 58 pages long, but it may easily be said that no author save the prophets, apostles and reformers have packed so much power into so small a space. There are a multiplicity of theories on "how to be filled with the Holy Spirit," but if you are weary of formulas and three-step approaches from this great mass of experience-oriented teachers then this book is for you. Tozer's understanding is firmly rooted in the holy scripture and is both fully divine and piercingly practical. Be drawn into the presence of God and know the sweet, fragrant power and peace of His Holy Spirit as you are led by this great saint--one who lived and walked in the presence of God and the power of the Spirit. This book contains four messages on the Holy Spirit--the titles are as follows:

1. Who is the Holy Spirit?
2. The Promise of the Father
3. How to Be Filled With the Holy Spirit
4. How to Cultivate the Spirit's Companionship

There are two other volumes of Tozer's works which contain the same basic content: the first is an expansion of this booklet and the second is a full-length book of sermons on the Holy Spirit entitled The Counselor. While the power and force of Tozer's words is better preserved in this smaller work, the additional content of The Counselor is indespensable to one seeking a truly biblical, charismatic understanding of the Holy Spirit.
