Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces, and when it falls on anyone, it will crush him.) 3) He will comfort you John 16:7-8 if I do not go away, the Helper [KJV Comforter] will not come to you.

If you make a noice and chase it, it will fly away. If you make noise to drive Him away, He will leave b) If you invite Him to come, He will come c) He does never force you or impose Himself on you 3) Invite Him now (afresh) a) Receive the Holy Spirit by faith Eph 5:18-20 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit; 19 Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord; 20 Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ; b) Trust in the goodness of the Lord Luke 11:9-13 And I tell you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 10 For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened. 11 What father among you, if his son asks for a fish, will instead of a fish give him a serpent; 12 or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion? 13 If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him! c) Please Holy Spirit, lead me into the truth, please help me in my daily live, please reveal give me the strength.
