Minster Louis expounds on the second practical step in his first intimacy sermon on some five practical steps to being intimate with the Holy Spirit. The five steps, in summary, are: 1. Prioritizing the Holy Spirit and His needs; 2. Consecration to him; 3. Obedience to his voice; 4. Honouring him; and 5. Believing and having faith in him.

In this sermon, Minister Louis explores the concept of consecration and the systems to keep one consecrated to enjoy deeper encounters with the Holy Spirit. He describes consecration as the act of devoting and setting oneself apart for God. Consecration isn't complete with either one of the systems of consecration (devotion or setting oneself apart), but both. And prayer is not intimacy but a continuous relationship with God. On the journey to intimacy, we need to shed certain habits or patterns because one must be alight in order to ascend. He also discusses the benefits of intimacy, highlighting some: 1. It's a strategy for dealing with the flesh. God may be preparing us for certain responsibilities, and thus we need intimacy with him to identify weaknesses that would overwhelm us in the period of blessings and deal with them. 2. It helps us deal with our soul through the renewal of our soul's consciousness, the mind. thus helping us better with discernment. Romans 12:2.
