It was scriptures that first convinced me the Holy Spirit is a person, such as when Jesus compared Him to Himself calling Him "Another comforter". But recently experience I'm pretty sure was the Holy Spirit convinced me all the more. I was pondering things of God, perhaps you could call it meditating, and I thought about how often when people tried to bring me down it was as if an angel was guarding me. A verse in a Psalm came to mind that might explain this but I could not think where it came from and wished it were confirmed to me that this was indeed what explained my experiences. "The Angel of the LORD encamps around those that fear Him to deliver them in times of trouble". Moments later a kind of voice of words spoken directly into my mind said simply "Daniel 3". So because it was so clear and striking I went to the lounge to see my Bible to look up Book of Daniel chapter 3. This Bible was one I was not at all familiar with having been given it as a gift. There was no mention in Daniel 3 until right near the end where the word "Angel" has a margin reference next to it. I looked up the reference and what did it say? I guessed already. A reference to the Psalm where it said "The Angel of the LORD encamps around those that fear Him to deliver them". So I knew this was an actual Spirit who gave me the simple words "Daniel 3" and so wisely proved to me that He was not a figment of my imagination. This Spirit is surely the Spirit described in scripture as the Spirit of the fear of the LORD. Surely He has great wisdom how He communicates proving He exists as a reality and not imagination. To me that is what a person does.
