Acts 1:8 NIV
The more you’re living a life that honors God and the more focused you are on the work of God, the more likely you are to experience the power of God.
Do I really need the Holy Spirit’s power?
Luke 3:21-22 NIV
Luke 4:1 NIV
Luke 4:14-21 NIV
Does God intend to empower every Christian today?
Ephesians 1:13-14 NIV
“As a body without breath is a corpse, so the Church without the Spirit is dead.”
~John Stott
God is not looking for every serious Christian to quit their job and become a pastor. He’s looking for every Christian to be a pastor at their job, in their school, at home – caring for the people around them. Striving to lead people to Jesus and fully follow Him together. That’s the mission we’ve been given by God and that’s what the Holy Spirit is eager to empower.
