The Holy Spirit Is Wholly And Always For Yahweh

The Holy Spirit Is Wholly And Always For Yahweh

Proverbs 21:30 reads,

^{21:30There is no wisdom nor understanding

Nor counsel against Yahweh.}

In other words, the Holy Spirit is NEVER against Yahweh, but is WHOLLY and ALWAYS for Yahweh.

Submit To The Holy Spirit's Guidance And Counsel

Proverbs 22:17-21 reads,

^{22:17Turn your ear, and listen to the words of the wise.

Apply your heart to my teaching.
^{22:18For it is a pleasant thing if you keep them within you,

If all of them are ready on your lips.}}

22:19That your trust may be in Yahweh,
I teach you today, even you.

^{22:20Haven’t I written to you thirty excellent things

Of counsel and knowledge,

^{22:21To teach you truth, reliable words,

To give sound answers to the ones who sent you?}}

Yah'shuah has sent out his servants to work for him. He has given them his Holy Spirit, the Counsellor. The Holy Spirit teaches them truth, reliable words, to give sound answers to Yah'shuah and Yahweh who have sent them out on their works.

In other words, the Holy Spirit teaches us how to speak soundly to both Yahweh and Yah'shuah. For, without the guidance or counsel of the Holy Spirit, we will most likely speak unsoundly to both Yahweh and Yah'shuah.

The Holy Spirit Is Friend To Yah'shuah's Disciples

Proverbs 27:9 reads,

^{27:9Perfume and incense bring joy to the heart;

So does earnest counsel from a man’s friend.}

Seeing that the earnest counsel from the Holy Spirit brings joy to the heart, the Holy Spirit is indeed friend to Yah'shuah's disciples, in whom he dwells.

Yah'shuah Is Also Called Counsellor

Isaiah 9:6-7 reads,

^{9:6For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be on his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. ^9:7Of the increase of his government and of peace there shall be no end, on the throne of David, and on his kingdom, to establish it, and to uphold it with justice and with righteousness from henceforth even forever. The zeal of Yahweh of Hosts will perform this.}

Another confirmation that Yahweh's Anointed, Yah'shuah, is also called Counsellor, even as the Holy Spirit is called Counsellor.

Attributes Of The Holy Spirit

Isaiah 11:1-5 reads,

^{11:1There shall come forth a shoot out of the stock of Jesse, and a branch out of his roots shall bear fruit. ^11:2The Spirit of Yahweh shall rest on him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of Yahweh. ^11:3His delight shall be in the fear of Yahweh; and he shall not judge after the sight of his eyes, neither decide after the hearing of his ears; ^11:4but with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and decide with equity for the humble of the earth; and he shall strike the earth with the rod of his mouth; and with the breath of his lips shall he kill the wicked. ^11:5Righteousness shall be the belt of his waist, and faithfulness the belt of his loins.}

Isaiah 28:29 reads,

^{28:29This also comes forth from Yahweh of Hosts, who is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in wisdom.}

Yahweh of Hosts is wonderful in counsel and excellent in wisdom. The Holy Spirit is likewise wonderful in counsel and excellent in wisdom. Seeing that the Holy Spirit doesn't speak his own opinions, but only those of Yahweh, it is indeed the case that the Holy Spirit encapsulates Yahweh's attributes, and simply replicates Yahweh's attributes wherever it is that he goes and operates.

Yahweh Counsels, Instructs And Teaches The Holy Spirit

Isaiah 40:12-14 reads,

^{40:12Who has measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, and meted out the sky with the span, and comprehended the dust of the earth in a measure, and weighed the mountains in scales, and the hills in a balance? ^40:13Who has directed the Spirit of Yahweh, or being his counselor has taught him? ^40:14With whom took he counsel, and who instructed him, and taught him in the path of justice, and taught him knowledge, and shown to him the way of understanding?}

The implication of these words is that it is Yahweh, the Most High, who directs his Spirit, and is counsellor to his Spirit, having taught him. He counselled, instructed and taught his Spirit justice, knowledge and the way of understanding! Yahweh is therefore the Arch Counsellor, the Arch Instructor and Arch Teacher. These attributes that the other Counsellors, Instructors and Teachers have - Yah'shuah and the Holy Spirit, originate with Yahweh, the source of these attributes.

Yahweh truly is the Most High, and he has placed his nature in both Yah'shuah and the Holy Spirit. Yah'shuah and the Holy Spirit are therefore basically reflections or clones of Yahweh, though they have their own independent minds and make their own independent decisions.

The Holy Spirit's Prophecies Stand

Isaiah 46:8-12 reads,

^{46:8Remember this, and show yourselves men; bring it again to mind, you transgressors. ^46:9Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me; ^46:10declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things that are not yet done; saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure; ^46:11calling a ravenous bird from the east, the man of my counsel from a far country; yes, I have spoken, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed, I will also do it. ^46:12Listen to me, you stout-hearted, who are far from righteousness:}

When the Holy Spirit declares future events he simply takes what Yahweh has uttered and declares it. As Yahweh's words stand, and the Holy Spirit declares Yahweh's words, the words of the Holy Spirit indeed stand.

The Holy Spirit Empowered Othniel The Son Of Kenaz To Properly Judge Israel

Judges 3:1-11 reads,

^{3:1Now these are the nations which Yahweh left, to prove Israel by them, even as many of Israel as had not known all the wars of Canaan; ^3:2only that the generations of the children of Israel might know, to teach them war, at the least such as before knew nothing of it: ^3:3namely, the five lords of the Philistines, and all the Canaanites, and the Sidonians, and the Hivites who lived on Mount Lebanon, from Mount Baal-hermon to the entrance of Hamath. ^3:4They were left, to prove Israel by them, to know whether they would listen to the commandments of Yahweh, which he commanded their fathers by Moses. ^3:5The children of Israel lived among the Canaanites, the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites: ^3:6and they took their daughters to be their wives, and gave their own daughters to their sons and served their gods. ^3:7The children of Israel did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, and forgot Yahweh their God, and served the Baals and the Asheroth. ^3:8Therefore the anger of Yahweh was kindled against Israel, and he sold them into the hand of Cushan-rishathaim king of Mesopotamia: and the children of Israel served Cushan-rishathaim eight years. ^3:9When the children of Israel cried to Yahweh, Yahweh raised up a savior to the children of Israel, who saved them, even Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother. ^3:10The Spirit of Yahweh came on him, and he judged Israel; and he went out to war, and Yahweh delivered Cushan-rishathaim king of Mesopotamia into his hand: and his hand prevailed against Cushan- rishathaim. ^3:11The land had rest forty years. Othniel the son of Kenaz died.}

When the Spirit of Yahweh, the Holy Spirit, came upon Othniel the son of Kenaz, he empowered Othniel to properly judge Israel and deliver Israel from the hand of Cushan-rishathaim. The Holy Spirit empowers Yahweh's servants to perform that works that Yahweh raises them to perform.

The Holy Spirit Empowered Gideon In Delivering Israel From The Clutches Of Her Enemies

Judges 6:33-35 reads,

^{6:33Then all the Midianites and the Amalekites and the children of the east assembled themselves together; and they passed over, and encamped in the valley of Jezreel. ^6:34But the Spirit of Yahweh came on Gideon; and he blew a trumpet; and Abiezer was gathered together after him. ^6:35He sent messengers throughout all Manasseh; and they also were gathered together after him: and he sent messengers to Asher, and to Zebulun, and to Naphtali; and they came up to meet them.}

It is the Spirit of Yahweh, the Holy Spirit, who empowered Gideon to undertake the works that he did in preparation of delivering Israel out of the hand of the Midianites and Amalekites.

The Holy Spirit Empowered Jephthah In Delivering Israel From The Clutches Of Her Enemies

Judges 11:12-33 reads,

^{11:12Jephthah sent messengers to the king of the children of Ammon, saying, What have you to do with me, that you are come to me to fight against my land? ^11:13The king of the children of Ammon answered to the messengers of Jephthah, Because Israel took away my land, when he came up out of Egypt, from the Arnon even to the Jabbok, and to the Jordan: now therefore restore those lands again peaceably.
^{11:14Jephthah sent messengers again to the king of the children of Ammon; ^11:15and he said to him, Thus says Jephthah: Israel didn’t take away the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of Ammon, ^11:16but when they came up from Egypt, and Israel went through the wilderness to the Red Sea, and came to Kadesh; ^11:17then Israel sent messengers to the king of Edom, saying, Please let me pass through your land; but the king of Edom didn’t listen. In the same way, he sent to the king of Moab; but he would not: and Israel abode in Kadesh. ^11:18Then they went through the wilderness, and went around the land of Edom, and the land of Moab, and came by the east side of the land of Moab, and they encamped on the other side of the Arnon; but they didn’t come within the border of Moab, for the Arnon was the border of Moab. ^11:19Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, the king of Heshbon; and Israel said to him, Let us pass, we pray you, through your land to my place. ^11:20But Sihon didn’t trust Israel to pass through his border; but Sihon gathered all his people together, and encamped in Jahaz, and fought against Israel. ^11:21Yahweh, the God of Israel, delivered Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they struck them: so Israel possessed all the land of the Amorites, the inhabitants of that country. ^11:22They possessed all the border of the Amorites, from the Arnon even to the Jabbok, and from the wilderness even to the Jordan. ^11:23So now Yahweh, the God of Israel, has dispossessed the Amorites from before his people Israel, and should you possess them? ^11:24Won’t you possess that which Chemosh your god gives you to possess? So whoever Yahweh our God has dispossessed from before us, them will we possess. ^11:25Now are you anything better than Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab? Did he ever strive against Israel, or did he ever fight against them? ^11:26While Israel lived in Heshbon and its towns, and in Aroer and its towns, and in all the cities that are along by the side of the Arnon, three hundred years; why didn’t you recover them within that time? ^11:27I therefore have not sinned against you, but you do me wrong to war against me: Yahweh, the Judge, be judge this day between the children of Israel and the children of Ammon. ^11:28However the king of the children of Ammon didn’t listen to the words of Jephthah which he sent him.
11:29Then the Spirit of Yahweh came on Jephthah, and he passed over Gilead and Manasseh, and passed over Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he passed over to the children of Ammon. ^11:30Jephthah vowed a vow to Yahweh, and said, If you will indeed deliver the children of Ammon into my hand, ^11:31then it shall be, that whatever comes forth from the doors of my house to meet me, when I return in peace from the children of Ammon, it shall be Yahweh’s, and I will offer it up for a burnt offering. ^11:32So Jephthah passed over to the children of Ammon to fight against them; and Yahweh delivered them into his hand. ^11:33He struck them from Aroer until you come to Minnith, even twenty cities, and to Abelcheramim, with a very great slaughter. So the children of Ammon were subdued before the children of Israel.}}

The Spirit of Yahweh, the Holy Spirit, came upon Jephthah and facilitated his undertaking the necessary actions in delivering Israel out of the hand of the children of Ammon. And succeed Jephthah did, for the Holy Spirit was upon him in the battle against the children of Ammon.

The Holy Spirit Prepared Samson For The Works He Called Him To Undertake

Judges 13:24-25 reads,

^{13:24The woman bore a son, and named him Samson: and the child grew, and Yahweh blessed him. ^13:25The Spirit of Yahweh began to move him in Mahaneh-dan, between Zorah and Eshtaol.}

The Spirit of Yahweh, the Holy Spirit, began to move Samson for the works that he was to facilitate Samson engaging in.

The Holy Spirit Empowered Samson In Tearing Apart A Lion

Judges 14:5-6 reads,

^{14:5Then went Samson down, and his father and his mother, to Timnah, and came to the vineyards of Timnah: and, behold, a young lion roared against him. ^14:6The Spirit of Yahweh came mightily on him, and he tore him as he would have torn a kid; and he had nothing in his hand: but he didn’t tell his father or his mother what he had done.}

The Spirit of Yahweh, the Holy Spirit, is indeed the Spirit of might. For he empowered Samson to might to a degree that he tore the lion with his bare hands! When the Holy Spirit comes upon a servant of Yahweh it is for the purpose of empowering that servant to undertake Yahweh's works and to so facilitate him so doing.

The Holy Spirit Empowered Samson In Striking 30 Philistines

Judges 14:19 reads,

14:19The Spirit of Yahweh came mightily on him, and he went down to Ashkelon, and struck thirty men of them, and took their spoil, and gave the changes of clothing to those who declared the riddle. His anger was kindled, and he went up to his father’s house.

The Holy Spirit Gave Samson Great Physical Strength

Judges 15:9-17 reads,

^{15:9Then the Philistines went up, and encamped in Judah, and spread themselves in Lehi. ^15:10The men of Judah said, Why are you come up against us? They said, To bind Samson are we come up, to do to him as he has done to us. ^15:11Then three thousand men of Judah went down to the cleft of the rock of Etam, and said to Samson, "Don’t you know that the Philistines are rulers over us? What then is this that you have done to us?" He said to them, As they did to me, so have I done to them. ^15:12They said to him, We have come down to bind you, that we may deliver you into the hand of the Philistines. Samson said to them, Swear to me that you will not fall on me yourselves. ^15:13They spoke to him, saying, No; but we will bind you fast, and deliver you into their hand: but surely we will not kill you. They bound him with two new ropes, and brought him up from the rock. ^15:14When he came to Lehi, the Philistines shouted as they met him: and the Spirit of Yahweh came mightily on him, and the ropes that were on his arms became as flax that was burnt with fire, and his bands dropped from off his hands. ^15:15He found a fresh jawbone of a donkey, and put forth his hand, and took it, and struck a thousand men therewith. ^15:16Samson said, With the jawbone of a donkey, heaps on heaps, With the jawbone of a donkey I have struck a thousand men. ^15:17It happened, when he had made an end of speaking, that he cast away the jawbone out of his hand; and that place was called Ramath-lehi.}

The Holy Spirit Prepared David For His Future Rulership Duties

1 Samuel 16:11-13 reads,

^{16:11Samuel said to Jesse, Are here all your children? He said, There remains yet the youngest, and, behold, he is keeping the sheep. Samuel said to Jesse, Send and get him; for we will not sit down until he come here. ^16:12He sent, and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, and withal of a beautiful face, and goodly to look on. Yahweh said, Arise, anoint him; for this is he. ^16:13Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brothers: and the Spirit of Yahweh came mightily on David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah.}

The Spirit of Yahweh, the Holy Spirit, came mightily upon David to prepare David for the task of shepherding Yahweh's people, the children of Israel. The Holy Spirit comes upon a servant of Yahweh to prepare that servant for performing a work for Yahweh.

The Holy Spirit Left Saul

1 Samuel 16:14 reads,

^{16:14Now the Spirit of Yahweh departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from Yahweh troubled him.}

Seeing that the Spirit of Yahweh, the Holy Spirit, comes upon a person to facilitate that person performing Yahweh's works, when the Holy Spirit leaves a person it is because that person has been deemed by Yahweh as not fit to perform his works. For Saul rebelled against Yahweh, not abiding by Yahweh's instructions to him, but doing what was right in his own eyes and contrary to Yahweh's instructions to him. Yahweh therefore decided to remove his Holy Spirit from Saul on account of his rebellion and sin.

Yah'shuah's disciples should learn this lesson from Saul's life. Yahweh's gives them his Spirit that they may undertake his works. But if they refuse to undertake his works, or neglect to so undertake those works, Yahweh will indeed remove his Spirit from dwelling in them. For his Spirit does not dwell in rebels against him, but only in his faithful servants.

It should also be clear that the Holy Spirit dwelling in one doesn't force that one to do his bidding. For had the Holy Spirit been out to force Saul to do his bidding Saul certainly would have done so. But the Holy Spirit simply assists those in whom he dwells to undertake Yahweh's works. When such rebel against Yahweh the Holy Spirit is grieved and eventually departs from such. It should therefore be clear that the Holy Spirit doesn't take over a person's mind and force his will upon the person he dwells in. He simply empowers that person to abide by Yahweh's works.

The Holy Spirit Spoke Through And To David

2 Samuel 23:1-7 reads,

^{23:1Now these are the last words of David.
David the son of Jesse says,
The man who was raised on high says,
The anointed of the God of Jacob,
The sweet psalmist of Israel:
^{23:2The Spirit of Yahweh spoke by me,
His word was on my tongue.
^{23:3The God of Israel said,
The Rock of Israel spoke to me:}}One who rules over men righteously,
Who rules in the fear of God,
^{23:4He shall be as the light of the morning, when the sun rises,
A morning without clouds,
When the tender grass springs out of the earth,
Through clear shining after rain.
^{23:5Most assuredly my house is not so with God;
Yet he has made with me an everlasting covenant,
Ordered in all things, and sure:
For it is all my salvation, and all my desire,
Although he doesn’t make it grow.
^{23:6But the ungodly shall be all of them as thorns to be thrust away,
Because they can’t be taken with the hand
^{23:7But the man who touches them
Must be armed with iron and the staff of a spear:
They shall be utterly burned with fire in their place}}}}}

One of the manifestations of the Spirit of Yahweh, the Holy Spirit, dwelling in one is that he speaks Yahweh's words through one and to one.

Obadiah Appreciated The Power Of The Holy Spirit

1 Kings 18:7-12 reads,

^{18:7As Obadiah was in the way, behold, Elijah met him: and he knew him, and fell on his face, and said, Is it you, my lord Elijah? ^18:8He answered him, It is I: go, tell your lord, Behold, Elijah is here. ^18:9He said, Wherein have I sinned, that you would deliver your servant into the hand of Ahab, to kill me? ^18:10As Yahweh your God lives, there is no nation or kingdom, where my lord has not sent to seek you: and when they said, He is not here, he took an oath of the kingdom and nation, that they didn’t find you. ^18:11Now you say, Go, tell your lord, Behold, Elijah is here. ^18:12It will happen, as soon as I am gone from you, that the Spirit of Yahweh will carry you I don’t know where; and so when I come and tell Ahab, and he can’t find you, he will kill me: but I your servant fear Yahweh from my youth.}

Obadiah understood that the Spirit of Yahweh, the Holy Spirit, had ability to transport a person from one geographical region to another. The Holy Spirit is indeed the Spirit of might!

The Holy Spirit's Words Against Those Of A Lying Spirit

1 Kings 22:1-40 reads,

^{22:1They continued three years without war between Syria and Israel. ^22:2It happened in the third year, that Jehoshaphat the king of Judah came down to the king of Israel. ^22:3The king of Israel said to his servants, "You know that Ramoth-gilead is ours, and we are still, and don’t take it out of the hand of the king of Syria?" ^22:4He said to Jehoshaphat, Will you go with me to battle to Ramoth-gilead? Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, I am as you are, my people as your people, my horses as your horses. ^22:5Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, Please inquire first for the word of Yahweh. ^22:6Then the king of Israel gathered the prophets together, about four hundred men, and said to them, Shall I go against Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall I forbear? They said, Go up; for the Lord will deliver it into the hand of the king.

^{22:7But Jehoshaphat said, Isn’t there here a prophet of Yahweh besides, that we may inquire of him? ^22:8The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, there is yet one man by whom we may inquire of Yahweh, Micaiah the son of Imlah: but I hate him; for he does not prophesy good concerning me, but evil. Jehoshaphat said, "Don’t let the king say so." ^22:9Then the king of Israel called an officer, and said, Get quickly Micaiah the son of Imlah.
^{22:10Now the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah were sitting each on his throne, arrayed in their robes, in an open place at the entrance of the gate of Samaria; and all the prophets were prophesying before them. ^22:11Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah made him horns of iron, and said, Thus says Yahweh, With these shall you push the Syrians, until they be consumed. ^22:12All the prophets prophesied so, saying, Go up to Ramoth-gilead, and prosper; for Yahweh will deliver it into the hand of the king.
^{22:13The messenger who went to call Micaiah spoke to him, saying, See now, the words of the prophets declare good to the king with one mouth: please let your word be like the word of one of them, and speak you good. ^22:14Micaiah said, As Yahweh lives, what Yahweh says to me, that will I speak. ^22:15When he was come to the king, the king said to him, Micaiah, shall we go to Ramoth-gilead to battle, or shall we forbear? He answered him, Go up and prosper; and Yahweh will deliver it into the hand of the king. ^22:16The king said to him, How many times shall I adjure you that you speak to me nothing but the truth in the name of Yahweh?
^{22:17He said, I saw all Israel scattered on the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd: and Yahweh said, These have no master; let them return every man to his house in peace. ^22:18The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, Didn’t I tell you that he would not prophesy good concerning me, but evil? ^22:19Micaiah said, Therefore hear you the word of Yahweh: I saw Yahweh sitting on his throne, and all the host of heaven standing by him on his right hand and on his left. ^22:20Yahweh said, Who shall entice Ahab, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth-gilead? One said on this manner; and another said on that manner. ^22:21There came forth a spirit, and stood before Yahweh, and said, I will entice him. ^22:22Yahweh said to him, ‘How?’ He said, ‘I will go forth, and will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets.’ He said, ‘You shall entice him, and shall prevail also: go forth, and do so.’ ^22:23Now therefore, behold, Yahweh has put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these your prophets; and Yahweh has spoken evil concerning you.
^{22:24Then Zedekiah the son of Chenaanah came near, and struck Micaiah on the cheek, and said, Which way went the Spirit of Yahweh from me to speak to you? ^22:25Micaiah said, Behold, you shall see on that day, when you shall go into an inner chamber to hide yourself. ^22:26The king of Israel said, Take Micaiah, and carry him back to Amon the governor of the city, and to Joash the king’s son; ^22:27and say, Thus says the king, Put this fellow in the prison, and feed him with bread of affliction and with water of affliction, until I come in peace. ^22:28Micaiah said, If you return at all in peace, Yahweh has not spoken by me. He said, Hear, you peoples, all of you. ^22:29So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth-gilead.
^{22:30The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, I will disguise myself, and go into the battle; but put you on your robes. The king of Israel disguised himself, and went into the battle. ^22:31Now the king of Syria had commanded the thirty-two captains of his chariots, saying, Fight neither with small nor great, save only with the king of Israel. ^22:32It happened, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, Surely it is the king of Israel; and they turned aside to fight against him: and Jehoshaphat cried out. ^22:33It happened, when the captains of the chariots saw that it was not the king of Israel, that they turned back from pursuing him. ^22:34A certain man drew his bow at a venture, and struck the king of Israel between the joints of the armor: therefore he said to the driver of his chariot, Turn your hand, and carry me out of the host; for I am severely wounded. ^22:35The battle increased that day: and the king was stayed up in his chariot against the Syrians, and died at even; and the blood ran out of the wound into the bottom of the chariot. ^22:36There went a cry throughout the host about the going down of the sun, saying, Every man to his city, and every man to his country. ^22:37So the king died, and was brought to Samaria; and they buried the king in Samaria. ^22:38They washed the chariot by the pool of Samaria; and the dogs licked up his blood (now the prostitutes washed themselves there); according to the word of Yahweh which he spoke.
^{22:39Now the rest of the acts of Ahab, and all that he did, and the ivory house which he built, and all the cities that he built, aren’t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel? ^22:40So Ahab slept with his fathers; and Ahaziah his son reigned in his place.}}}}}}}}

In 22:24 it is noted that Zedekiah challenged the veracity of Micaiah's words, claiming that his words were inspired by the Spirit of Yahweh, the Holy Spirit, and that Micaiah's words weren't. But their words conflicted, thereby proving that the Holy Spirit wasn’t speaking by both of them at that time, but only by one of them, if at all by any of them. The proof of which prophet the Holy Spirit had spoken by was in the outcome of the battle they had both prophesied on. The outcome turned out as Micaiah had prophesied, thereby proving that it was Micaiah who indeed bore the words of the Holy Spirit, and not Zedekiah and the 400 prophets.

It should be remembered that the Holy Spirit is also the Spirit of Truth, speaking only truth. The Holy Spirit also predicts - accurately - the future. Therefore any prophecy purporting to be that of the Holy Spirit, but which turns out amiss, indeed didn't originate with the Holy Spirit. Such errant prophecies are either the opinions of those who utter them, or inspired by evil or lying spirits, even as in the case of Zedekiah, when an evil and lying spirit spoke through him.
