In Reference to: 18 May 1997 - THE HOLY SPIRIT GIVES US THE EMPOWERMENT TO LIVE AS CHRISTIANS
God Bless you,
I am a 32 year old female seeking the Lord and I thought that I had my Christian walk together, but recently I allowed the devil in, however I decided that I wouldn't allow him to take full control.
I was testifying about my struggles in church this past Sunday and expressing that I needed to kill my flesh and felt as though I couldn't do it on my own. I've been praying about my situation but not wholeheartedly.
I didn't want to continue in sin, but felt I was to weak to do it on my own.
My Co Pastor stated that the Lord reveled to her that I needed the Holy Spirit.
She gave me Acts1:8 to study. I read, but had yet received full understanding as to what I need to do in order to receive the Holy Spirit.I always thought that once you accept Christ that you received the Holy Spirit.
Let Me get to my point.I searched on line for Sermons about Acts 1:8 and yours came up.. WOW!
God used you, It was like an instruction manual, I appreciated the Scripture references given they provided further clarity. What I Loved most was when you stated, Combine your Faith and Your Prayers Together - Faith admits the Holy Spirit In; however, in order to be in-filled you must clean out the junk first. Wonderfully put.Please continue to be a blessing and may God continue to work through you.
