What does it feel like
Posted : 3 May, 2011 05:09 PM

I don't know if anyone has experienced the Holy Spirit "moving through them" or not, but I'm just wondering how does it feel? My Pastor refers to it as having the Holy Spirit fall fresh on you. I guess you could also call it a filling of the Holy Spirit.





I guess I should clarify. Do you feel something in your stomach? Is it a tingling sensation, a subtle wind or shaking, etc.?



I've had my own experiences with the Holy Spirit, just curious about the experiences of others.



Thanks in advance for your wonderful responses!

This is an interesting question. I think it feels like I'm going to pass out but don't. I get all these weird feelings all over my body, chills, tingles, etc. And I just stand thier praising God. It's really wierd. I love the feeling.

I don't get physical feelings, more emotional ones, mostly I get the feeling that I just know is the Lord, if there's a question I'm asking him, something I've been praying about that I need an answer to, it will just come upon me, and I just know.

I believe the Lord has pulled me out of dangerous situations, especially when I was young, I was very protected. Ever have someone lie to you and you can just tell they're lying, or have a feeling of danger, or a feeling that something's wrong but you absolutely don't know why?

I think that's the Lord, the Holy spirit gives discernment.

I don't know other people's experiences but those are mine. When talking with people about the Lord this is one of the 'coolest' aspects about fellowship in the Lord, the spirituality, and things you can't explain, coming together and talking, and giving testimony.

I can't completely explain it, I just know. My heart starts racing like crazy, I get shaky (at least inside of no one can see it), and my hands get cold, sometimes its a nervous feeling and other times its an exciting feeling. In 2006 I knew I was going to spend the following summer in China before I even applied to the program because I knew that it was God telling me that I was going. I got accepted into the program 3 months later.

I noticed that sometimes when I'm talking to someone, my peripheral will fade, and I'll find myself speaking with more clarity than I'm used to. It's only when we're talking about deep spiritual matters or I'm asked for some serious advice though, which leads me to believe that's that Spirit using me to speak to the other person. Or maybe he's using them to speak to me.

Hey soluvable! Um, I feel just about the same, minus the tingles. I think that may have happened once. I agree, it is such an amazing, surreal feeling.

"sometimes its a nervous feeling and other times its an exciting feeling"





Katie, I've experienced that too.





Sometimes it's like a weak feeling. Sometimes I get "scared" sort of...lol...it's just bananas! I love it.

That's interesting Tulip. Now that's something I haven't experienced before.

It is like every single cell in my body is Alive with Real Spiritual Life, every cell, like you can feel every single one beaming with life. And when speaking I hear the words come out and think 'wow that is totally not me'..... cause it is way to good!
