Whenever I pray or hear really moving spiritual music, I get tingling and goosebumps all over my body that sometimes give me a quick shiver. Are these symptoms of the power of the Holy Spirit moving through my body? It feels really uncomfortable but I still love when it happens because it makes me feel like I'm really close to God and like my prayers are much more powerful and effective during those moments. It even makes the hair on my arms stand straight up!

sturdy questions. Holy Spirit or Holy Ghost skill an identical element. The Holy Spirit is there once you repent of your sins & ask Jesus to change into Lord of your existence & you ask the Holy Spirit in. i'm no longer particular the way you tell if a Christian is stuffed with the Holy Spirit except in the experience that they are following the Lord (in the experience that they have got the outcome of the spirit). The Holy Spirit does no longer dictate what Christians do, it helps them make perfect alternatives, the alternative in spite of the indisputable fact that remains the persons (it somewhat is why sin nevertheless takes position) The Holy Spirit doesnt tell human beings to remodel to different religions.The writers of the Gospels (or any component of the Bible) didnt make blunders because God made the universe and all it somewhat is in it and made particular that His note changed into excellent. i imagine many do ask which version of the Bible to study, many variations are excellent, only diverse wordings. i'm particular I didnt get all of your questions responded yet i'm hoping this enables some :)

yes, I think it could be...when it happens do you have an overpowering love for God. So strong it makes you cry with joy and happiness. Do you feel an incredible and indescribable sense of love and comfort from Him...and when you read the bible and pray, do things become much clearer for you...more understandable, like a light was switched on in your brain. Then I'd say yes, it's the Holy Spirit.

By a christian definition, it probably is. But, I get the same effect watching some of my favorite parts in movies or listening to rock music. I think that is just a good feeling when experiencing something really enjoyable.

I firmly believe that like myself it is a wonderful feeling to Love God and to hear of all the good things regarding God. This also gives me goose bumps. I don't think it is the Holy Spirit though, but who am I to say. Keep up your faith dear. Hugs
God Bless you with truth and understanding.

Unfortunately, it could be any number of things.
Those who fervently pray to false gods also experience the same effects.
In the end, we still have to fall back upon grace, the complete revelation of the one, true, God, and faith.
If you're true to these things, than your "goose bumps" are most likely genuine, and truly inspired.

Yes it sounds like it but pray and ask God. The bible says we are to test the spirit.
