Galatians 5:25 says:
"if we live in the spirit, let us also walk in the spirit"
Many people want to know how to grow in the spirit. The journey to the top is easy, provided you know the basics. Fishes are born inside water and so cannot survive outside water. We are born if the spirit, john 3:6 says
"that which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the spirit is spirit"
In John 20:22, Jesus breathed on the disciples to receive the Holy Spirit. The air you breathe must be charged with the Holy Spirit. In Acts 2:1-4, on the day of Pentecost, there was another filling as the Holy Spirit descended on them. In Acts 4:31, the disciples prayed together and the Holy spirit came down and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit.
Ephesians 5:18 says:
"And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess, but be filled with the spirit;"
How do you make progress spiritually? Live and think in the spirit. Romans 8:6-7 says:
"For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. 8:7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be."
Many of our thoughts leave out the Holy Spirit and this is why we do not go far. If you leave God out of the equation, nothing works.
We are to pray in the spirit always too. Romans 8:26-27:
"Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. 8:27 And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God."
Pray in tongues. The Holy Spirit will cover the grounds you cannot cover in prayer. The Bible says we do not know how to pray, so, why not let the one who knows how to pray help you to pray?
Sing in the Holy Spirit . many if our songs are just carnal songs. We should sing to worship God and not for entertainment. We must worship God in spirit and in truth.
Speak in the spirit. People who live in the Holy Spirit are people of few words. They pick their words carefully
To progress spiritually, we are to do these things consistently:
Pray ceaselessly - 1 Thessalonians 5:17
Fast - 2 Corinthians 11:27
Witness - John 15:16
Plant churches like the 
Give - luke 6:38
If you fall, admit with sorrow that you have made a mistake, the determine never to make that mistake again. In Psalms 51:3, David said:
"For I acknowledge my transgressions' and my sin is ever before me"
