Answered in 3 sources
The Holy Spirit works in believers by quickening their hearts and leading them to understand and follow Christ.
The Holy Spirit plays a crucial role in the Life of a believer, primarily as the agent of regeneration and sanctification. In John 3:6, it is stated, 'That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.' This indicates that the Spirit is responsible for enlightening and transforming the heart of an individual, prompting a new birth. The indwelling of the Holy Spirit also leads believers into all truth (John 16:13) and empowers them for holy living and service. Moreover, the Spirit equips believers with gifts and produces the fruit of the Spirit, thus illustrating His dynamic role in fostering a vibrant Christian experience.
