The Humbling Reality of Being Indwelt by The Holy Spirit

R. A. Torrey in his book, “The Person and Work of the Holy Spirit” tells us,
 “The conception of the Holy Spirit as a divine influence or power that we are somehow to get hold of and use, leads to self-exaltation and self-sufficiency. One who thinks of the Holy Spirit and who at the same time imagines that He has received the Holy Spirit will almost inevitably be full of spiritual pride and strut about as if he belonged to some superior order of Christians. One frequently hears such persons say, ‘I am a Holy Ghost man’ or ‘Holy Ghost woman’. But if we once grasp the thought that the Holy Spirit is a divine person of infinite majesty, glory and holiness who in marvelous condescension has come into our hearts to make His abode there and take possession of our lives and make use of them, it will put us in the dust and keep us in the dust. I can think of no thought more humbling or more overwhelming than the thought that a person of divine majesty and glory dwells in my heart and is ready to use even me.” (Pg. 8-9)
