Good book on The Holy Spirit?

I'm looking for a good book on Pneumatology that will open up my eyes more than they are, easy to understand and effective ways to access the spirit within you. Right now I'm looking at The God I Never Knew by Robert Morris. Any suggestions?

You need to be filled with the Holy Spirit like Pentecostals say.
Ask for it.
Then you don't need to look for anything because is going to be very obvious.

Some books seems to speak either about the spirits moving them, but that is not the same as the Holy Spirit. Others think that the Holy Spirit, is just another Gods, out of three Gods, who is so separate from other gods, that one should focus primarily on Him. Not many are able to acknowledge that it is the Lord Jesus Christ who send it, as He breathed on the disciple, and so it is not kind of another God, but is the very Divine Proceeding from the Lord God Jesus Christ (and Father in Him).

I've consistently heard good things about this book. It's on my tbr list.

Tell me Proximus, are you a Oneness Pentecostal? I ask because you appear to deny the person and deity of the Holy Spirit and conflate the Father and the Son, Jesus Christ?

It seems like you may have partly misunderstood my position. I do not deny the Divinity of the Holy Spirit. My position is that the Holy Spirit is not another separate God, which one or two other Gods send on errands, or communicate certain written letters. But that the Holy is that which the Lord Jesus Christ sends (out of the Father in Him), so the Holy Spirit is the Divine which proceeds from the Lord (and the Father). I understood the ancient term persona rather as the Divine Attribute (not a mask) of the One Lord and God. So, in my idea there is one God, not three Gods, and the Trinity is in the Lord, not outside of Him. Not sure what exactly the Pentecostals believe, and whether they place the Trinity in the Lord God Jesus Christ.
So, as I may see, there are different ways to understand the Trinity in the Word. One way - strictly literally, according to the apparances of the Old Testament, where it appears that there are distinct separate persons, each of whom is God. Or otherwise, more spiritually, according to the letter understood, when the Trinity is in the Lord, and the one who sees and accepts the Son, accepts the Father, and the Holy Spirit, when he lives according to the Lord's Commandments of faith and charity.

There is The Foundations of Christian Doctrine by Kevin J Connor. And Derek Prince wrote a short simple book on Him. I like best, for the get into Him yourself books by Guy Chevreau, Catch the Fire and Pray with Fire. A mix of church history, experiences, advice, testimonies and after reading you may find yourself hungry and being filled at church.

There is also Power Evangelism by John Wimber and Moving in the Spirit by Phil Pringle. There is More by Randy Clark and Lighting Fires.

Reinhard Bonnke wrote Evangelism by Fire, demonstrating making tens of millions of converts with his team. The Blood of Jesus, Fire of God, Healing, worship. And Benny Hinn wrote some books, although not everyone likes him.

The subjective truth can be a wonderful being lost in the anointing experience, God's thick presence. Having someone 'read your mail'.
