Prayer to the Holy Spirit


Remember that prayer for understanding is something we can do before reading the Bible, and I have found it often noticeably effective (not that we need to or even can see the effect in real time). In fact, it seems to me that though it often seems strange to pray to the Person of the Holy Spirit, and it is rare for Christians to do so, to pray to the Holy Spirit for understanding of the Word of God seems very natural and right.

Unrelated: A good Scripture verse to keep the dogs of the world (including self-styled Christian leaders) at bay:

Isa 51:7 Hearken unto me, ye that know righteousness, the people in whose heart is my law; fear ye not the reproach of men, neither be ye afraid of their revilings.
