They are: the Spirit of Life (Romans 8:2), the Spirit of Truth (John 15:26), the Spirit of Wisdom (Ephesians 1:17), the Spirit of Holiness (Romans 1:4), the Spirit of Faith (2 Corinthians 4:13), the Spirit of Love (1 John 4:8), and the Spirit of Prophecy (Revelations 19:10). Lastly, the passage is basically talking about a single Spirit that would rest upon Jesus Christ, namely the Holy Spirit, which is exactly what this passage is really talking about. Second, wisdom, understanding and counsel are all basically the same thing, so the best we could possibly obtain from this passage is 4 spirits, not 7. (NKJV) If we look carefully at this passage we notice first of all that one of these Spirits is called "The Spirit of the LORD," however by definition each of these would be spirits of the Lord. The Spirit of the LORD shall rest upon Him, The Spirit of wisdom and understanding, The Spirit of counsel and might, The Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD. ![]() Some people have taken Isaiah 11:1-2 as being the one verse in the Bible that talks about the identity of the 7 Spirits of God: There shall come forth a Rod from the stem of Jesse, And a Branch shall grow out of his roots. ![]()
