Introduction

There is a wonderful Teacher who teaches uniquely and comprehensively. He teaches in a unique manner which no teacher on earth can ever be able to teach. The wonders of revelation knowledge and insights which He impacts in the lives of His humble students are incomparable. If you are a doctor, get ready to be a better physician. If you are a lawyer, get prepared to be a better legal adviser. If you are a student, get ready to be the best in your academics. If you are a parent, get ready to be a better father or mother to your children. If you are a pastor, get ready to be a better preacher if you are an engineer, businessman, homebuilder, etc. Get ready to be more improved than you use to be because a great Teacher is about to add great values to your life that would improve your profession. The content of His teaching is always life-changing and soul-lifting. He is the Person of the Holy Spirit of the living God. The Teacher of all teachers. The only Teacher that is not a learner. Do you know Him, are you aware He is a glorious Teacher? Many people who failed in businesses, marriages, academics, and other areas of life could have been successful if they had humbly attended this school which the Holy Spirit is the Teacher.

This book “31 Days Encounter With The Holy Spirit” is a supernatural learning program anchored by the Holy Spirit. It is an insightful school where you get supernaturally empowered and equipped to succeed in all ramifications of life. Prepare your heart like a student going into the classroom to seat under the teachings of a school teacher. Fortunately, the Teacher here is much more than human teachers. The Teacher is the Holy Spirit, the only Teacher who teaches all the courses all by Himself. You can’t afford to miss this school.

This book is written to encourage people to humbly learn from this wonderful Personality who can teach everything to anyone who enrols in His supernatural teaching program. I believe you want to succeed in your endeavours and achieve your goals. The Holy Spirit will help you to achieve your dreams. The more you learn from Him, the more you increase in wisdom, knowledge and understanding. Success is guaranteed if the Holy Spirit be your Teacher.

The day you stop learning might be the day you will stop succeeding. You are able to seat under the teachings and tutorship of human teachers in schools and other learning places because you believe they know something you need to know. Holy Spirit knows much more than all the human teachers you have ever come across from the day you were born till date, and He will remain outstanding until the end of the earth. If you allow Him to be your Teacher, your life will be significantly transformed. This book will open your eyes to spiritual realities. Just Read Through.

Chapter 1
WHO IS THE HOLY SPIRIT?

Before we talk about the personality of the Holy Spirit, let’s consider this story. A man was looking for a good school where he could register his children for proper education. His friend introduced him to a school and highly recommended the school for his children. Initially, the man did not consent to his friend’s recommendation because he doubted if the school has good teachers. But later, he decided to give it a trial. He registered one of his sons just to know what would be the outcome of the studies. At the end of the first term, the performance of the child was superlatively outstanding. The man was delighted. Without hesitation, he registered the other of his two children, making it a total of three children he enrolled in the same school.

Just like the man who enrolled his three children in the same school after he had ascertained the credibility of the school, we also need to know who the Holy Spirit is and find out His definite attributes. This will help us to believe in Him fully and also open our hearts for His impartations.

“And the angel answered and said to her, the Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow you, therefore, also, that Holy One who is to be born will be called the Son of God”. –

(Luke 1:35)

Holy Spirit is a Personality who has divinely embodied power to make everything possible. Nature demands that a man and a woman must come together sexually before a woman could conceive and bear a child. But in Luke 1:35, we see the Holy Spirit overruling the law of nature and granting a woman a child in her womb without the interference of any man. Holy Spirit is in relation with the Godhead. He is the Spirit of God sent to help humanity achieve divine purposes. He gives wisdom for diverse purposes and also imparts moral and decent character in the lives of those who are privileged to have Him. He was fully involved in the creation of the earth and the things in the earth (Genesis chapter 1). Presently, He is the Spirit of God, helping the church of God to manifest the power and glory of God. He was sent to us by God after the ascension of Jesus Christ into Heaven (Acts 1:4-8, 2:1-4). The Holy Spirit is in the world today, moving around and helping those who are willing to learn and receive from Him. He is our Comforter whom God sent to comfort us in every situation. The good and wonderful attributes of this glorious Personality called “The Holy Spirit” are so numerous to mention. But with these few qualities of His mentioned here, it is convincing that the Holy Spirit is worth hearing and learning from whenever He speaks. He gives wisdom, knowledge, and understanding to those who submit to His learning.

WHY YOU SHOULD LEARN FROM THE HOLY SPIRIT

Your life cannot remain the same after learning from the Holy Spirit because He teaches mysteries that can only be demystified by God. He also reveals the deep things of God to His learners.

“Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know.” - (Jeremiah 33:3)

There are great and mighty things you do not know about your life, destiny, business, academics, marriage, children, family, etc. The Bible says “when you call upon God”. In other words, “when you show the willingness to learn from God through the Holy Spirit, He will reveal those things to you”. A person who humbly learns from the Holy Spirit is far better than someone who attended lectures in the University of Oxford, University of Cambridge, Harvard University, Stanford University, Princeton University, and any other Universities you can think of in the world. All these earthly universities are good for our learning, but it would be much better if we complement them with the teachings of the Holy Spirit for better Comprehension. The teachings of the Holy Spirit have no human comparison because the lecturers in these universities and every other academic institution in the world couldn’t have known what to teach if God had not given them access to divine knowledge. The gift of knowledge comes from God through the Holy Spirit.

“For to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit.” – (1 Corinthians 12:8)

The scripture above clearly stated that the Holy Spirit is the Giver of the gift of knowledge. This simply means that every teacher and lecturer you see in the whole couldn’t have been if the Holy Spirit had not graciously given him or her the gift of knowledge. This also shows that all the teachers and lecturers in the world are subordinates to the Holy Spirit because a student is not above his teacher.

IS THE HOLY SPIRIT TRULY A TEACHER?

This is a fundamental question to ask. This question truly needs to be asked and equally answered so that you can believe and be convinced that the Holy Spirit is truly a Teacher.

“These things we also speak, not in word which man’s wisdom teaches, but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual.” –

(1 Corinthians 2:13)

The scripture above has just revealed to us that the Holy Spirit is a Teacher above all human teachers. Apostle Paul said that the wisdom embedded in his words was not acquired from social teachings, but by the teachings of the Holy Spirit (1Corinthians 2:13). When you attend the school of the Holy Spirit, your words will always be seasoned with godly wisdom, and that would make you uniquely outstanding. Perhaps, the members of the Church at Corinth desired to speak and preach wisely like Apostle Paul but didn’t know the source of his wisdom. Paul told them that the wisdom they saw him manifest was not learnt in the human tutorial classroom but in the school of the Holy Spirit. Now we know why Apostle Paul did great exploit in the work of the Gospel Ministry more than other Apostles and disciples who began the work before him. Learning from the Holy Spirit can make you succeed ahead of those who started before you in the area of business, academics, etc.

In Matthew 19:30, Jesus said; “But many that are first shall be the last, and the last shall be the first”. The first who later became the last are those who started working in the wisdom of the Holy Spirit but later forsook Him. They are also those who did not work in the wisdom of the Holy Spirit at all. The last who later became the first are those who though they started late, acknowledge the wisdom of God and work in it. This simply means that the wisdom of the Holy Spirit can help you to succeed in life irrespective of the time you started.

Apostle Paul said he learnt to make a comparison of things in the spiritual perspectives before making his decisions; “These things we also speak, not in word which man’s wisdom teaches, but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual” (1 Corinthians 2:13). The teaching he received from the Holy Spirit helped Him to think before he spoke and reasoned before he took actions. I have heard many people say; “Look before you leap”. But I say; “Ask God before you leap”. This reason is that most times, we don’t see very clear when we look. When Adam and Eve looked at the tree of knowledge of good and evil in the Garden of Eden, they saw a tree that was good for food, but they didn’t see the generational problems in the fruit of the tree (Genesis 3:6-19). They lost the glory of the garden after eating the fruit and brought great problems to humanity. This is what happens in the lives of many people; they realize they have made the wrong choice after they have fallen into many problems. We can’t see or know certain things except they are revealed to us by God through the Holy Spirit.

God did not create anyone to be knowledgeably independent, and that is why the Bible encourages us to study and learn. Many things we need to succeed in life are spiritually hidden, and we can only know and access them when we humbly learn under the teachings of the Holy Spirit.

“The secret things belongs to the LORD our God, but those things which are revealed belong to us and our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law” – (Deuteronomy 29:29)

Without any controversy, it is clearly stated in the scripture that; “the secret things belong to God”. If you truly want to know these secrets, then you have to learn from Him. In the book of Daniel, chapter two, Daniel said;

“He reveals deep and secret things, He knows what is in the darkness, and light dwells with Him.”

(Daniel 2:22).

There were wise men in Babylon. They had their wisdom which they perhaps acquired from the astrologers, the stargazers, the prognosticators, and other sources they could reach out to. But Daniel had great virtues of wisdom in of him, which he received from the Holy Spirit of God. When the time came to prove who is wiser between Daniel and the wise men of Babylon, Daniel by the wisdom of God interpreted the dream of king Nebuchadnezzar which all the wise men in Babylon could not attempt to explain.

“Then the secret was revealed to Daniel in the night vision” - (Daniel 2:19).

The difference here is that Daniel acquired his wisdom from God through the Holy Spirit, while the wise men of Babylon got their wisdom from other sources. Holy Spirit is a glorious Teacher, and Daniel happened to be one of His humble students. If the Holy Spirit teaches you, you cannot be stuck in the mud.

Chapter 2
UNDERSTANDING THE SCHOOL OF WISDOM

We have just learnt about the person of the Holy Spirit and ascertained through the scriptures that He is truly a Teacher with a unique teaching method. I believe you are now convinced that the Holy Spirit is a Teacher. The next thing you need to know is about the school itself. One of the ways God speaks to us is through “signs”. We call Him “the God of signs and wonders”, yet when He speaks to us through signs, many people find it so difficult to understand. God can only perform His wonders when we acknowledge His signs.

Have you ever wondered why we have 31 chapters in the book of proverbs in the Bible, and also have 31 days in most of the months of the year? The book of proverbs is the only book in the Bible that has 31 chapters, which is coincidentally the same number with most of the months of the year. The month of April, June, September, and November have 30 days, respectively. February has 28days in a normal year, and 29 days in a leap year. Other months like January, March, May, July, August, October, and December, all have 31 days, respectively. Seven months out of the twelve months of the year has 31days, respectively. Considering the spiritual meaning and effectiveness of numbers, seven is the number of perfection. Seven is also God’s favourite number. Most of the supernatural works which God did in the bible, were done with the number seven. Examples; the earth and the things in it were created in six days, and God rested on the seventh day (Genesis 2:1-3). This is why we have seven days in a week. What God has put in place in this arrangement is hidden from the sight, believe, and understanding of many people. But these secrets are unravelled in this book through the revelation of the Holy Spirit. As you read through this book, you will learn more.

As we take up university academic courses and study them within some time, the book of proverbs in the bible is also a school of wisdom which we should attend and pay attention to by going through all the chapters of the book of proverbs in 31 days. One chapter per day. It is a life in the spirit program and must not be toyed with if you want to get the best of the result. Your life will never remain the same after this life-changing encounter. This truth is hidden from many people, but thank God for unfolding it to us. You are privileged to have this book with you.

The book of proverbs is connected to all the books of the Bible, and it contains all the knowledge, wisdom, and understanding you need to succeed in life, irrespective of your field of duties. Each chapter of the book of proverbs has many revelatory teachings and insightful knowledge that can change your life for good. The wisdom in the book of proverbs was given to Solomon by God through the Holy Spirit of God, and it is given for our learning, and this learning should go from one generation to another. It is important to understand that this school is not like the earthly school where we do certain things the way it pleases us. This is a school where the Holy Spirit is in full control.

“Holy Spirit teaches revelation knowledge.”

We need to understand that the Holy Spirit mean well for us; that is why He chose to teach us the necessary things we need to know. You should also mean well for yourself so that you can be a beneficiary of this divine program. This school is between you and the Holy Spirit, and He can choose to teach you anytime, anywhere, and through any means that He wishes to impact His wisdom into your life. The reasons are best known to Him, so you don’t have any reason to question Him. Any way He chooses to teach you, humbly accept it. In John chapter two, when the people ran out of wine during a wedding feast in the land of Cana of Galilee, Mary the mother of Jesus Christ said to the servants of the celebrants; “Whatever He says to you, do it” (John 2:5). The servants of the celebrants did as they were instructed, and they got the best result (John 2:7-10). The same applies to the school of the Holy Spirit. If you want to get the best of what the Holy Spirit gives to His students in the school of wisdom, kindly do precisely what He asks you to do.
