Jan 4, 2022 · Answer. The power of the Holy Spirit is the power of God. The Spirit, the third Person of the Trinity, has appeared throughout Scripture as a Being through and by whom great works of power are made manifest. His power was first seen in the act of creation, for it was by His power the world came into being (Genesis 1:1–2; Job 26:13).

Acts 1:1-5 :1 The former account I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach, :2 until the day in which He was taken up, after He through the Holy Spirit had given commandments to the apostles whom He had chosen, :3 to whom He also presented Himself alive after His suffering by many infallible proofs, being seen by them durin...
I believe the book of Acts teaches us the key to this vast spread of Christianity in these early years. We see the key right here in these first five verses of the book of Acts: The Holy Spirit. Many know that as Christians we are commanded to preach the Gospel to the World. (Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:15). Jesus gave us this commission shortly befo...
Some have used this to teach a doctrine of ‘tarrying’ (waiting) to receive the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. Some people have ‘tarried’ for years. This is not the point Jesus was getting at. They were waiting for the Holy Spirit to be poured out for the first time. Ever since then He has already been poured out. Now, no one has to wait any longer to ...
Don’t even try to do this job without the Holy Spirit. Take the time to get properly equipped and you will be more successful. The Book of Acts is commonly called ‘The Acts of the Apostles’. However, it should probably more accurately be called ‘The Acts of the Holy Spirit through the church’. Without the Holy Spirit there would have been no ‘acts’...
This was not the first time that the disciples had heard Jesus speak of the Holy Spirit. In His last few days the cross, Jesus spent a large amount of time talking to them about the Holy Spirit. Jesus emphasised the Holy Spirit, and taught His disciples about who He is and what He does in our lives. It is important that we do not neglect to find ou...
I believe Jesus and the early church are good examples to follow. They got results. They knew how to get people healed. The miraculous flowed through their lives. They knew how to follow God and His leadings in their lives. They knew how to make Spirit Led decisions and to fulfil the plans and purposes of God for their lives. So any key that they t...
Some people believe that God stopped doing miracles after the first couple of centuries of the church. We as humans love to blame God when things don’t go the way we think they should. I am convinced that the problem was not on God’s side. It was not God who stopped doing the miracles, rather there was a lack of humans who knew how to yield to and ...
There is a direct Bible connection between the Holy Spirit and the supernatural manifestation of God’s power. There is a supernatural demonstration of the Holy Spirit and people who learn to yield to the Holy Spirit will begin to experience Him and what He offers. 1 Corinthians 2:4 :4 And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of...
You can have information and knowledge yet have no experience of God in your life at all. Getting knowledge is a good start but if that is all you get, you are missing the point. That knowledge has to become something you walk in, something you apply in your life to a point that it affects and changes you. Just because someone can quote all the tec...
Following God is not a matter of, ‘this is my opinion and that is your opinion’ but rather a matter of, ‘what is truth’? Truth is found in the Word of God. The truth about the Holy Spirit, who He is and what He does today is found in the Bible. This is what we are interested in. Our foundation and final authority is the Bible, The Word of God. Ther...
- He Makes Us More Like Christ.
- He Gives Us Power to Witness. Just as Acts 1:8 mentions, the Holy Spirit empowers Christians to be effective witnesses for Jesus Christ. He gives us the boldness to testify of the Lord Jesus Christ in situations where we would normally be fearful or timid.
- The Holy Spirit Guides Us into All Truth.
- The Holy Spirit Convicts Us of Sin. Since the Holy Spirit is working to make us like Jesus, he convicts us of our sin. Sin is something that will always offend God and hold us back.

These spiritual gifts are manifestations of the Holy Spirit in our lives (1 Cor. 12:11). The Holy Spirit empowers our prayer life.
