The Holy Spirit is so glorious that It's an It to far beyond our capability to understand any which it of It.
But I understand a knee-jerk reflex at calling It - the Spirit - an It. However the scripture is not so uptight about It ... Loosen up a little sis  ...:
Joh 1:32 And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him.
Rom 8:16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
Rom 8:26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself
1Pe 1:11 Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow. |

hee..hee
that's our Harold for ya !!!
.... OK... so if we want to avoid all technicality....let's start with the fact Mr KJ didn't exactly translate the Words of God precisely.... so if you want to call the HS an it, sure..you can ... ME...I prefer not to address HIM as an it. But Christ IS OUR SOLID ROCK. A ROCK. A FORTRESS, A HIGH TOWER. ALL ITS.
I actually stand corrected by golly!! 
Still God is a PERSON. God is Spirit.. so HE/SHE is the Person I talk to and talks back to me.
So you noticed I wrote He/SHE huh?
hee hee... Holy Spirit is most likely the Female part of God. Not to worry... I ain't getting all femma nazi on y'all fogies ! (most of us are on this forum are all fogies now...
Wisdom shouts in the street,
She lifts
her voice in the square;
At the head of the noisy streets
She cries out;
At the entrance of the gates in the city
She utters
Her sayings:
Proverbs 1:20:21
You know what's really funny ?? Sometimes the HOLY SPIRIT ACTUALLY 'YELLS' AT ME... to get my attention. If I ignore His still small Voice, She will SCREAM !!!!!!!! I ususally end up responding with: 'OH! ok Holy Spirit... Got it!'
Now... Mr Lee went made a big hoopla on the '7 fold intensified Spirit'...and i bet he didn't even know what/Who they were! If he did.. he didn't emphasize them and He didn't know HER. AND THE LSM sheeple follow suit.
Wisdom is one of the 7 spirits of God right?
Isaiah 11:2 describes the 7 Spirits of God:
“The Spirit of the LORD will rest on him —
the Spirit of Wisdom and of Understanding,
the Spirit of Counsel and of Power, the Spirit of Knowledge and of the Fear (Respect imho) of the LORD.”
This could possibly explain the seven Spirits of God:
(1)
Spirit of the LORD,
(2)
Spirit of Wisdom,
(3)
Spirit of Understanding,
(4)
Spirit of Counsel,
(5)
Spirit of Power,
(6)
Spirit of Knowledge,
(7)
Spirit of the Fear of the Lord.
Love YA HAROLD !
