In actuality (experience) I think "exercised in your spirit" means whatever they want it to mean. We now go back to the old argument of orthodoxy being a cover for heteropraxy. You can be ushering in a meeting, or taking care of children "in your mingled spirit" and that is great, so they say. That means that the Big Boss is happy with you.

Or you can take care of children's meeting, or usher on Sunday Morning, or clean the meeting hall in a supposedly proud, independent, and arrogant way, which means Big Boss is not happy with you. Really, it means nothing; it means whatever Big Boss wants it to mean at any time. It is all about control. "Exercised in your spirit" just gives them verbiage to approve or disapprove of you. And believe me, nothing can change that! If Lee wanted to pan you, and dress you down, too bad for you. I doubt it has changed 20 years later. Same system.
