Jesus said, The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit (John 3:8). New birth of the Holy Spirit is also known as regeneration. It is our birth from above, because the Holy Spirit comes from above
New birth comes like the wind. The Holy Spirit works as the power of God unto salvation (Romans 1:16). His power is omnipotent. The wind moves at unexpected times and in unexpected ways. It's hard to explain, and often difficult to understand. The Holy Spirit, like the wind, moves when, where, and how He pleases. New birth through the Holy Spirit is beyond our full comprehension.
New birth is the Holy Spirit changing our hearts (Ezekiel 36:26). It is the work of only one, the Holy Spirit (John 3:7-8). He enables you to have a genuine love for God and a heart to obey Jesus our Lord. The Holy Spirit works in you, what you could never do for yourself. You become a new creation in Christ (John 3:6; 2 Corinthians 5:17).
New birth enables our faith, confessing that Jesus Christ is Lord. Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God (1 John 5:1). By the Holy Spirit, we confess Jesus is Lord (1 Corinthians 12:3). That means we believe Jesus our Lord is risen from the dead (Romans 10:9).
