When we compare the indwelling of the Holy Ghost to the construction of a building, we see many striking similarities. This indwelling has been so accurately labeled as "a work in progress". Today, we see a tremendous amount of work, but it is not of the progressive nature. The comparison of a physical building with the building that the Holy Ghost is building in our souls can enlighten our minds and hearts to some interesting facts. Anytime there is to be a construction site, the very first action would be to place a sign on the property informing all that pass by, as to what is going to be constructed. In the spiritual realm, a sign has been placed on the building site of every believer which reads, "Site under construction, Holy Ghost at work". Also, in the course of organizing a building site, there are three steps or tools that are absolutely essential to the success of the building project, They are:
1. A Building Permit
This is an official document, issued by a governing agency that grants permission for the building construction to begin. Likewise spiritually, a permit has been signed and issued from heaven itself, granting divine permission for the Holy Ghost to begin construction in our soul.
