and...What does the Holy Spirit require of us?
 
He speaks the testimony of God to people's hearts.
He wants us to believe that testimony.
 
John 16:7
Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.
8 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:
And following John verses.

Galatians 5:17
For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.

Romans 8:26
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.

Micah 6:8
He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?

The Holy Spirit works exclusively within the realm of the Finished Work of Christ. This means that He works entirely within the parameters which are defined by the Cross (Romans 8:2, 11).

The Holy Spirit requires that our Faith be anchored solely in the Cross of Christ, because the price was paid at the Cross. When our Faith is properly placed, in other words, that the Cross is ever the object of our Faith, the Holy Spirit will then work mightily within our lives (Romans 6:3-5; 8:1).

The object of our faith without exception must be Christ and the Cross. Paul said "We preach Christ crucified" (1 Cor. 1:23).
 
and...What does the Holy Spirit require of us?

Obedience.

For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. Romans 8:14
 
Philippians 2:8
And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
