Trying to fight the Holy Spirit makes you miserable. Trying to force the Holy Spirit makes you frustrated. But when you flow with the Holy Spirit, there is peace and joy. When it comes to the work of the Holy Spirit, don’t fight or force; just flow.
Is Being Slain in the Spirit Biblical?
So we see, from scripture, that spiritual things can be transferred and given through the laying on of hands. The Spirit and His power can be transferred through human touch. And what happens when the Holy Spirit and His power are present? In some cases, people are unable to stand or otherwise react physically. We see the reactions to the Glory of God all throughout scripture. So to say that the manifestation is unbiblical, one must deny one or all of these premises. Otherwise, he cannot reject the conclusion.

Holy Spirit - The Greatest Bible Teacher on Earth
When I first began to read the Word for myself, I would read halfway through any given chapter of the Bible only to realize that I wasn’t understanding what I was reading. So I’d have to start over.

Therefore, true worship cannot be conjured by means of emotional posturing. Worship can’t be demanded by an ambitious song leader. Hype can’t produce it. Production can’t mimic it. Musical talent cannot cause it. Only the Holy Spirit can ignite the fire of worship in your heart. For the carnal cannot produce the spiritual. He is the one who awakens true worship within you.

Welcome the Holy Spirit
Don't Hurt the Holy Spirit
Disobedience to the Word of God grieves the Holy Spirit. Ungodly thoughts grieve the Holy Spirit. When we prioritize entertainment over prayer, we grieve the Holy Spirit. When we ignore His gentle voice, we grieve the Holy Spirit. When we are more committed to interacting on social media than we are to reading the Bible, we grieve the Holy Spirit. When we allow anger to get the best of us, lust to control us, and fear to dominate us, we grieve the Holy Spirit.
This is How You Know You Really Have the Holy Spirit

The things of the world fade, change, and become uncertain. But the Holy Spirit never leaves us, never changes, and is never unreliable.
