In the Bible no one is ever instructed to pray to the Holy Spirit. We pray to the Father by the Holy Spirit in the name of Jesus Christ. "For through him (Jesus) we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father." - Ephesians 2:18If you are a believer, you have become a child of God and all of God's children need His power to live the new, spiritual life "And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father" - Galatians 4:6

Jesus taught his disciples to pray: Our Father, who art in heaven. Phillipians 4:6 says to "Be anxious for nothing, but by prayer and supplication let your requests be made known to God." We do pray in Jesus name....for His glory. But we pray to God the Father, through the Holy Spirit that dwells within us, in the name of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.
Matt. 28:20 John 14:16,18 Even thought He was no longer personally and visible with them (the disciples) Jesus did not sever His connection with the disciples. IN one sense, through the Holy Spirit, their union with Jesus was even closer than when He lived with them in Palestine. They knew that He was their Friend and Saviour still, and that before the throne of His Father in heaven He identified with humanity and was preparing places for them. (See John 14:1-3) All that Jesus was to those first disciples, He wants to be to you! This is evident in His last prayer with the little band of disciples: "Neither pray I for these alone," He said "but for them also which shall believe on me through their word." John 17:20

If you don't have this gift, do not do this yourself.
