What are the gifts or fruits of the Holy Spirit?

According to Galatians 5:22, 23:

  • love
  • joy
  • peace
  • patience
  • kindness
  • goodness
  • faith
  • mildness
  • self-control

These are the positive traits that are displayed in a person who has asked God for His Holy Spirit.

What is the Holy Spirit?

The Holy Spirit is the force of God in action. To put it simply, it is the energy that God exerts when He wants His will to be done.  

In some Bible verses such as Psalm 8:3 and Luke 11:20, the Holy Spirit is also referred to as God's hands, God's fingers, the spirit of God, or the breathe of God. So by these phrases, we can deduce that the Holy Spirit is not a separate entity but more of a force that is exerted or enacted to make a thing possible.  When He created everything, He used his power or Holy Spirit to make the universe and all creation.

This also means that the Holy Spirit is not an entity that is part of a trinity or a three-fold god. This also means that the Holy Spirit does not reside in a person or a group of people.

However, God sends his Holy Spirit to His people who ask for it and those who need it the most. His Holy Spirit will allow His followers and believers to overcome extremely difficult situations, it will allow them to show love and courage, and it will allow them to fulfill His will and follow his rules in their everyday lives. That is why the people who have asked for God's help and have received the Holy Spirit are able to display the 12 gifts or fruits of the Holy Spirit.
