First, the Holy Spirit must empty you out completely. The Full Christ is for empty sinners; this is Salvation. Admit you cannot save yourself, or you will be sent away Empty. You have nothing of your own that could ever recommend you to God; Christ can be all yours today FREELY, take all of Him into your empty heart. His Grace is as free as the air you are breathing right now. Sin is bitter, Christ is Sweet; Religion is bitter, the Gospel is Sweet. The eyes of the LORD are in every place beholding your evil and good; every secret thing you do is being recorded; The LORD's eyes follow you into your secret life, His eyes track you down when no one is watching behind closed doors, remember, God sees you 24/7. God just doesn't see your exterior, but He also looks upon your heart, that is, your desires, thoughts, motives, intents, cravings, lusts. You must simply receive the living Christ into your dead Soul.
The LAW deals with the sins of thought, even the imagination of evil is Sin, The LAW extends to every desire, every act, every word. The LAW of God should fill you with terror and horror, it is beyond your power to keep the LAW. The Holy Spirit must show you the terrors of the LAW, and the bleeding Love of Calvary's Cross. You have neglected God for a long time, rejected the Gospel many times, and defied and denied God's Son all through your life. God gives His Salvation Freely to sinners, not because of their prayers, feelings, repentings, resolves, but simply because of His Son's Precious Blood and Perfect Righteousness, and nothing else. Jesus only came to save sinners, not the good, not righteous; but Christ died for the Ungodly.
O God hear my prayer: I am poor beggar at your gate of Mercy asking for a handout from You, please be merciful to me a sinner for Jesus' sake, for by the Law I can never be saved from my sins. LORD JESUS, I come to you empty and filthy inside. I am flat broke, please give me your Unsearchable Riches. I take You JESUS, You Only, to be All my Salvation. I come to YOU naked to be Clothed, helpless to be HELPED, dead to be made ALIVE! Lord Jesus, please do your work inside my Soul, a work that I cannot do, please change me, work in me your Great Salvation. You have done ALL that is needed to save my guilty Soul. I receive your finished RIGHTEOUSNESS and completed REDEMPTION BY BLOOD into my empty Soul. I take your Salvation as a Free Gift. JESUS, my Trust is Forever fixed on You alone, my Faith is wholly fixed on nothing less, and nothing more, than your Innocent Blood.
The Holy Spirit will teach you how much you need JESUS, guide you to JESUS, and into the KINGdom of God. After you are born again and delivered from the power of darkness, the Holy Spirit will continue to teach you to avoid/forsake your sins which grieve God, and to walk cautiously, and behave wisely, thoughtfully and tenderly in the Kingdom of God. The Holy Spirit will teach you to draw nigh to God, live nearer to the Lamb of God, and cultivate a closer communion and acquaintance with the Lord Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit will help you discern the spirituality of the Law, the Redemption of the Atonement, the Perfection of Justification, the Beauty of Sanctification, and the Preciousness of real Union to Christ day by day.
