Being saved is by Gods grace.
you receive the holy spirit by being baptized.
Receiving the Holy Spirit will help guide you in your walk with God. The Holy Spirit helps you see things with your heart and not trust you own eyes, to see things past worldly values.

I was baptized with the Holy Spirit before I was baptized in water. The Holy Spirit guides me in my spiritual walk in many ways from the time I was born again and has transformed me to be more like Jesus. I find it important to pray in tongues so that the Holy Spirit can pray for all things for me including the edification.of myself. I grow spiritually under the guidance and the ministry of the Holy Spirit as God's plan for my life is progressively unfold to me.

I was Baptized in water and afterwards I received the Holy Spirit and the the gift of tongues. The Holy Spirit leads me and He guides me. I have a deep desire to go forward to learn and to serve God, to seek His face more than to see what He can do for me, a desire to live for Him..

When the Lord saves us his Spirit is their to teach us about God's ways to bring us closer into God's righteousness and to teach us more about Jesus and his walk and his purpose here on earth and the love he has showen to people he is are example to live buy, but God knew that we would could not do it on are own power so the Holy Spirit is also there to give us power to change to be more like Jesus and to be able to transform us into his image and to do what he did in God's time.

I received the Holy Spirit before I was baptized in water. But after I received the Holy Spirit I was anxious to be obedient to the command of Christ and make a public declaration of my faith and go through the ceremony that Jesus gave us that symbolized the inner change wrought by the Spirit.
Romans 6:4 We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life.
The Spirit sanctifies me and turns me away from this world and my old sinful lifestyle. He gives me counsel and comfort and has gifted me to serve in the body of Christ, may his name be praised forever, amen!
1 Corinthians 12:7 To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. 8 To one is given through the Spirit the utterance of wisdom, and to another the utterance of knowledge according to the same Spirit, 9 to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit, 10 to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another the ability to distinguish between spirits, to another various kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. 11 All these are empowered by one and the same Spirit, who apportions to each one individually as he wills. 12 For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ. 13 For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body--Jews or Greeks, slaves or free--and all were made to drink of one Spirit.

He stays up to late and never turns down the volume on the TV. So, I get less sleep.
