Speaker 1: Spirit of God moves in a person's life, they are
0:33

0:37
Speaker 1: of the world. They are set on fire, filled with power,
0:41
Speaker 1: walking in supernatural confidence. Maybe you've wondered what really happens

0:55
Speaker 1: unshakable peace, moving with a confidence that doesn't make sense.
1:00
Speaker 1: Maybe you've asked yourself, why haven't I experienced that? Or
1:04

1:08
Speaker 1: for more. You want to know what's next. This video

Speaker 1: is for you. We are going to break down ten incredible,
1:17
Speaker 1: undeniable things that happen when the Holy Spirit fills a believer,

Speaker 1: and by the end of this video, we are going

Speaker 1: to pray together, asking God to move in a powerful
1:28
Speaker 1: way over your life. If you have never experienced the

1:35
Speaker 1: in you like never before, because once you understand what's possible,
1:40

1:49
Speaker 1: someone who needs a breakthrough, send them this video because

Speaker 1: God has something to say to them today before we
1:55
Speaker 1: dive in. Make sure to like this video and share
1:59
Speaker 1: it because this is a message that needs to be heard.
2:03
Speaker 1: The Holy Spirit is real, he is moving, and to
2:07
Speaker 1: day he might just be calling you. If the Holy
2:11
Speaker 1: Spirit is real, if he is active, if he moves
2:15
Speaker 1: upon a believer, what actually changes. What is the first
2:19
Speaker 1: undeniable sign that the Spirit of God has taken hold
2:23
Speaker 1: of someone's life. The answer is found in the very
2:27
Speaker 1: words of Jesus. You will receive power when the Holy
2:31
Speaker 1: Spirit comes upon you and Delluh acts one eight. Power
2:37
Speaker 1: not just knowledge, not just emotion. Power. And this is
2:41
Speaker 1: not just a small increase in courage or a momentary
2:44
Speaker 1: burst of confidence. This is supernatural power, the kind that
2:48
Speaker 1: changes the course of history. The kind that turns ordinary
2:51
Speaker 1: people into unstoppable forces for the Kingdom of God. Think
2:56
Speaker 1: about the disciples before the Holy Spirit came. They had
3:00
Speaker 1: walked with Jesus for three years. They had seen him
3:04
Speaker 1: heal the sick, cast out demons, raise the dead. They
3:08
Speaker 1: had heard his voice, sat at his feet, witnessed miracles
3:12
Speaker 1: with their own eyes. And yet when the time of
3:15
Speaker 1: testing came, they ran. They hid in fear. Peter, the
3:20
Speaker 1: one who swore he would never leave Jesus, denied him
3:23
Speaker 1: three times to save himself. Thomas doubted. The others scattered,
3:28
Speaker 1: afraid for their lives. They had faith, but they had
3:31
Speaker 1: no power. They knew the truth, but they had no
3:34
Speaker 1: strength to stand on it. But then something happened. The
3:38
Speaker 1: Holy Spirit came upon them. The same Peter who had
3:41
Speaker 1: been too afraid to admit he knew Jesus, stood in
3:44
Speaker 1: front of thousands and preached with fire in his voice,
3:48
Speaker 1: and three thousand people were saved in one day. The
3:52
Speaker 1: same disciples who had locked themselves away in fear, walked
3:56
Speaker 1: boldly into the streets, healing the sick, car rusting out demons,
4:01
Speaker 1: declaring the name of Jesus, with no fear of what
4:05
Speaker 1: the world could do to them. These were the same men,
4:08
Speaker 1: but they were no longer the same. Something had changed.
4:12
Speaker 1: The Holy Spirit had filled them, empowered them, and turned
4:16
Speaker 1: them into world changes. But this power wasn't just for them.
4:20
Speaker 1: It wasn't just for the apostles, or for the early Church,
4:24
Speaker 1: or for a select few. This power is for you
4:28
Speaker 1: right now. If you have ever felt weak, if you
4:32
Speaker 1: have ever felt like you're not good enough, not strong enough,
4:36
Speaker 1: not brave enough, this is the power that changes everything.
4:40
Speaker 1: The Holy Spirit does not just come to comfort you.
4:44
Speaker 1: He comes to equip you. He does not just make
4:47
Speaker 1: you feel closer to God. He makes you a threat
4:51
Speaker 1: to the kingdom of darkness. But what does this power
4:54
Speaker 1: look like today. Maybe you're not standing in front of crowds,
4:58
Speaker 1: maybe you're not preaching to th but that does not
5:02
Speaker 1: mean the power of the Holy Spirit is not working
5:05
Speaker 1: in you. This is the power that breaks addictions. This
5:09
Speaker 1: is the power that gives you the strength to walk
5:12
Speaker 1: away from sin that used to control you. This is
5:16
Speaker 1: the power that makes you stand firm when everyone else
5:20
Speaker 1: bows to the world. This is the power that gives
5:23
Speaker 1: you the right words to say when someone is hurting.
5:27
Speaker 1: This is the power that makes you unafraid of rejection,
5:30
Speaker 1: of failure, of anything that used to hold you back.
5:34
Speaker 1: Think about your own life. Have you ever held back
5:37
Speaker 1: from speaking about God because you were afraid of what
5:41
Speaker 1: people might think? Have you ever felt a stirring in
5:44
Speaker 1: your heart to step out in faith, but fear kept
5:47
Speaker 1: you frozen. That is exactly why Jesus sent the Holy
5:52
Speaker 1: Spirit so that fear would no longer control you. When
5:55
Speaker 1: he fills you, you stop worrying about who approves of
5:58
Speaker 1: you and you stuff aren't moving in boldness, in confidence,
6:03
Speaker 1: in authority. You stop holding back because you realize this
6:07
Speaker 1: isn't your power, it's his. And here's the truth. If
6:10
Speaker 1: you are a believer, this power is already inside you.
6:13
Speaker 1: But the question is are you walking in it? Are
6:17
Speaker 1: you living as if the same spirit that raised Jesus
6:20
Speaker 1: from the dead is living in you? Or are you
6:23
Speaker 1: still living in fear, in hesitation, in the lie that
6:27
Speaker 1: you are not strong enough, Because here's the reality, you
6:30
Speaker 1: aren't strong enough. But he is the same power that
6:35
Speaker 1: transformed the disciples is the same power that is available
6:39
Speaker 1: to you right now. The only thing left to do
6:42
Speaker 1: is surrender and step into it. So how do you
6:46
Speaker 1: receive this power you ask, You hunger for it, you
6:50
Speaker 1: cry out for it. Jesus himself said, how much more
6:54
Speaker 1: will your Father in Heaven give the Holy Spirit to
6:57
Speaker 1: those who ask him? Luke eleven thirty. The power of
7:01
Speaker 1: the Holy Spirit is not for a select few. It
7:03
Speaker 1: is for anyone who is willing to receive it. But
7:06
Speaker 1: you cannot walk in this power while still holding on
7:09
Speaker 1: to fear. You cannot walk in this power while still
7:13
Speaker 1: doubting if God can use you. You must choose to step forward,
7:17
Speaker 1: to let go of excuses, and to believe that what
7:20
Speaker 1: God did in the Early Church, he can do in you.
7:23
Speaker 1: If you've been waiting for a sign, this is it.
7:27
Speaker 1: The Holy Spirit is not distant, He is not silent.
7:31
Speaker 1: He is waiting waiting for you to let go of hesitation,
7:35
Speaker 1: waiting for you to stop thinking you have to be
7:38
Speaker 1: perfect before He can use you, waiting for you to
7:41
Speaker 1: simply say, God, fill me with your spirit. Let your
7:46
Speaker 1: power move in my life like never before. Because when
7:50
Speaker 1: you pray that, when you mean it, everything changes. The
7:54
Speaker 1: power of God is not a theory. It is not
7:58
Speaker 1: a story from history. It is real. It is available,
8:02
Speaker 1: and it is waiting for you to say yes. If
8:05
Speaker 1: the power of the Holy Spirit fills a believer, Then
8:09
Speaker 1: what is the first sign that everything has changed? What
8:12
Speaker 1: is the evidence that someone has truly encountered the spirit
8:16
Speaker 1: of God? Boldness, a courage that defies fear, that overcomes hesitation.
8:24
Speaker 1: That silence is doubt, because when the Holy Spirit comes
8:27
Speaker 1: upon you, fear loses its grip. It is not a slow,
8:32
Speaker 1: gradual process. It is an undeniable transformation. Think about Peter.
8:39
Speaker 1: Before the Holy Spirit came, he was terrified. This was
8:42
Speaker 1: the man who had walked on water, who had seen
8:45
Speaker 1: Jesus perform miracles with his own eyes. He swore he
8:49
Speaker 1: would never deny Jesus, that he would follow him to
8:53
Speaker 1: the end. But when the time came, when Jesus was arrested,
8:57
Speaker 1: when Peter was put to the test, he failed. A
9:01
Speaker 1: servant girl pointed him out in the courtyard, and immediately
9:04
Speaker 1: fear took over. I don't know him, Peter said, not once,
9:09
Speaker 1: not twice, three times, And when the rooster crowed, Peter
9:13
Speaker 1: realized what he had done. He broke down and wept.
9:17
Speaker 1: Fear had controlled him, and he knew it. But fast
9:20
Speaker 1: forward to the day of Pentecost. Something had changed. Peter
9:24
Speaker 1: the same man who had been too afraid to admit
9:28
Speaker 1: he even knew Jesus stood up before a crowd of
9:31
Speaker 1: thousands and preached the Gospel with fire in his voice.
9:34
Speaker 1: He didn't care what any one thought. He didn't hesitate,
9:38
Speaker 1: he didn't stumble over his words. He spoke with boldness,
9:43
Speaker 1: with conviction, with authority, and that very day, three thousand
9:48
Speaker 1: people gave their lives to Christ. What happened? What turned
9:52
Speaker 1: the same man who once trembled in fear into a
9:55
Speaker 1: fearless preacher the Holy Spirit. That's the kind of transformation
10:00
Speaker 1: that happens when the Spirit of God fills you, fear
10:04
Speaker 1: no longer controls you. The things that once made you hesitate,
10:09
Speaker 1: the moments where you held back, the times when you
10:12
Speaker 1: wanted to speak up but didn't, they disappear. Suddenly you
10:16
Speaker 1: are no longer worried about what people think. You are
10:19
Speaker 1: no longer afraid of rejection, of embarrassment, of saying the
10:22
Speaker 1: wrong thing. The Holy Spirit gives you a fire that
10:26
Speaker 1: burns through every excuse, through every insecurity, through every fear
10:30
Speaker 1: that once held you captive. And maybe that's exactly what
10:34
Speaker 1: you need right now. Maybe you felt stirred before, like
10:38
Speaker 1: you wanted to step out, like you wanted to share
10:40
Speaker 1: your faith, like you wanted to be bold, but something
10:43
Speaker 1: held you back. Fear, doubt, hesitation. Maybe you've thought, I
10:50
Speaker 1: don't know enough, I'm not ready, what if people judge me?
10:54
Speaker 1: And so you stayed quiet, you stayed in the background.
10:58
Speaker 1: But here's the truth. The same spirit that transformed Peter
11:02
Speaker 1: is the same spirit that lives in you. This is
11:05
Speaker 1: not just a story from history. This is your story.
11:09
Speaker 1: And the Holy Spirit is ready to break every fear
11:12
Speaker 1: that has held you back. Because here's what happens. When
11:15
Speaker 1: He fills you. You stop caring about opinions and you
11:19
Speaker 1: start caring about obedience. You stop worrying about rejection because
11:23
Speaker 1: you realize that pleasing God is more important than pleasing people.
11:28
Speaker 1: You stop waiting for the perfect moment because you realize
11:33
Speaker 1: every moment is an opportunity to walk in boldness. And
11:38
Speaker 1: this boldness doesn't just apply to preaching. It changes the
11:42
Speaker 1: way you live. It makes you step into your calling
11:45
Speaker 1: with confidence. It makes you pray with authority, knowing that
11:49
Speaker 1: your words carry power. It makes you stand firm in
11:53
Speaker 1: your faith even when the world pushes against you. It
11:56
Speaker 1: gives you an unshakable courage that refuses to bow to fear.
12:01
Speaker 1: So let me ask you, what is fear keeping you
12:04
Speaker 1: from doing? Is it keeping you from sharing your testimony,
12:08
Speaker 1: from praying boldly, from stepping into a calling God has
12:12
Speaker 1: placed on your heart? Because that fear is a lie.
12:17
Speaker 1: It is not from God. For God has not given
12:20
Speaker 1: us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and
12:24
Speaker 1: a sound mind two Timothy one seven. If fear is
12:30
Speaker 1: still controlling you, then you are not walking in the
12:33
Speaker 1: fullness of what the Holy Spirit has given you. And
12:36
Speaker 1: to day that can change. If you are tired of
12:40
Speaker 1: holding back, if you are done with hesitation, if you
12:43
Speaker 1: are ready to walk in the same boldness that turned
12:46
Speaker 1: Peter into a fearless leader, then it's time to ask
12:50
Speaker 1: the Holy Spirit to fill you. Because when he does,
12:54
Speaker 1: you won't recognize yourself. The things that once intimidated you
12:58
Speaker 1: will become opportunities. The conversations you once avoided will become
13:02
Speaker 1: divine appointments. The fear that once silenced you will be
13:07
Speaker 1: replaced with a voice of power. So right now, ask
13:10
Speaker 1: him Holy Spirit, fill me. Remove every fear, every hesitation,
13:15
Speaker 1: every insecurity. Let me walk in boldness like never before.
13:20
Speaker 1: Let me speak with fire, with courage, with confidence. I
13:25
Speaker 1: surrender my fear to you, replace it with faith, because
13:30
Speaker 1: when you pray that everything changes. The Holy Spirit is
13:35
Speaker 1: not just an idea. He is a force, a fire,
13:40
Speaker 1: a power, and when he moves in you, fear has
13:44
Speaker 1: no choice but to flee. Conviction is never meant to condemn.
13:49
Speaker 1: It is meant to set you free. When the Holy
13:52
Speaker 1: Spirit calls something out in your life, it is never
13:55
Speaker 1: to shame you, never to make you feel hopeless, but
13:58
Speaker 1: to bring you into a great level of holiness, a
14:01
Speaker 1: deeper level of freedom. And once you respond to that conviction,
14:05
Speaker 1: once you begin to surrender to the refining fire of God,
14:09
Speaker 1: something incredible happens. You start to hunger for Him in
14:14
Speaker 1: a way you never did before. Suddenly the things of
14:17
Speaker 1: God become the most important things in your life. The Bible,
14:22
Speaker 1: which once seemed difficult to understand, comes alive. The words
14:26
Speaker 1: jump off the page. Scriptures that you have read before
14:30
Speaker 1: suddenly hit you in a way they never did. You
14:33
Speaker 1: begin to crave the Word of God, not just as knowledge,
14:37
Speaker 1: but as your very source of life. This is not
14:39
Speaker 1: an ordinary book. It is the breath of God, the
14:42
Speaker 1: weapon of the Spirit, the voice of the Father speaking
14:45
Speaker 1: directly to you. And when the Holy Spirit is working
14:49
Speaker 1: in you, you can no longer live without it. Think
14:53
Speaker 1: about this. Before the Spirit filled you, reading the Bible
14:56
Speaker 1: might have felt like a chore. You knew it was
14:59
Speaker 1: import but you didn't always feel connected to it. You
15:03
Speaker 1: read the words, but they didn't always resonate. You wanted
15:07
Speaker 1: to understand, but sometimes it felt like just words on
15:10
Speaker 1: a page. But the moment the Holy Spirit moves in,
15:14
Speaker 1: that changes. Because the Bible is not meant to be
15:17
Speaker 1: read with just your mind. It is meant to be
15:20
Speaker 1: read with your spirit. And when the Spirit of God
15:23
Speaker 1: begins to dwell in you, he opens your eyes to
15:26
Speaker 1: see truth in a way you never could before. This
15:31
Speaker 1: is what Jesus meant when he said, but the helper,
15:34
Speaker 1: the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name,
15:37
Speaker 1: He will teach you all things and bring to your
15:40
Speaker 1: remembrance all that I have said to you John fourteen
15:44
Speaker 1: twenty six. The Holy Spirit is the teacher, the revealer
15:48
Speaker 1: of truth. You don't just read the word anymore. You
15:52
Speaker 1: begin to experience it. It starts convicting you, guiding you,
15:57
Speaker 1: strengthening you. Have you ever read a verse and felt
16:00
Speaker 1: like it was speaking directly to your situation, like it
16:04
Speaker 1: was written for you in that exact moment. That is
16:08
Speaker 1: the Holy Spirit. He takes what was written thousands of
16:12
Speaker 1: years ago and applies it to your life to day.
16:16
Speaker 1: He breathes revelation into scriptures that once seemed difficult. He
16:21
Speaker 1: turns Bible reading from an obligation into an encounter, and
16:25
Speaker 1: this hunger does not fade. Once the Holy Spirit opens
16:29
Speaker 1: your eyes to the power of God's Word, you can
16:32
Speaker 1: never go back. You begin to see scripture everywhere. A
16:37
Speaker 1: verse comes to your mind when you're making a decision.
16:40
Speaker 1: A passage you read weeks ago suddenly gives you clarity.
16:44
Speaker 1: In a moment of confusion, you wake up craving time
16:49
Speaker 1: in the Word because you know without it you are
16:53
Speaker 1: starving your spirit. But this more, the Word of God
16:57
Speaker 1: does not just fill you. It transforms you. It renews
17:01
Speaker 1: your mind. It changes the way you think, the way
17:04
Speaker 1: you see the world. Lies that once held you captive
17:07
Speaker 1: are broken because Truth has taken their place. Fears that
17:12
Speaker 1: once controlled you lose their power because you now stand
17:16
Speaker 1: on the promises of God. Temptations that once seemed impossible
17:21
Speaker 1: to resist become weaker. Because your spirit is being strengthened daily.
17:27
Speaker 1: This is why the enemy will do everything in his
17:30
Speaker 1: power to keep you from the Word. He knows that
17:34
Speaker 1: once you begin to truly consume it, meditate on it,
17:38
Speaker 1: live by it, you become dangerous. He will try to
17:42
Speaker 1: distract you, make you feel too busy, too tired, too unmotivated.
17:47
Speaker 1: He will fill your mind with excuses, telling you that
17:50
Speaker 1: you'll do it later, that you already know enough that
17:53
Speaker 1: you don't need to be in the Word every day.
17:57
Speaker 1: But those are all lies, because the truth is, you
18:02
Speaker 1: will never outgrow your need for God's Word. You will
18:05
Speaker 1: never reach a point where you've learned enough. You will
18:08
Speaker 1: never mature beyond the daily need to be fed by scripture.
18:12
Speaker 1: Just as your body needs food, your spirit needs the
18:15
Speaker 1: Word of God. The moment you stop consuming it, you
18:19
Speaker 1: begin to grow weak. The moment you stop prioritizing it,
18:23
Speaker 1: the enemy finds ways to attack. You cannot afford to
18:26
Speaker 1: live without it. So here's the question. Are you hungry
18:30
Speaker 1: for the Word or has your hunger been dulled by distractions,
18:35
Speaker 1: by entertainment, by a lack of discipline. Because the Holy
18:40
Speaker 1: Spirit is ready to ignite a hunger in you like
18:43
Speaker 1: never before. He's ready to reveal things to you in
18:46
Speaker 1: scripture that you've never seen before. He's ready to speak,
18:50
Speaker 1: to guide, to teach, But you have to open the book.
18:54
Speaker 1: You have to seek him. Take a moment and pray,
18:58
Speaker 1: Holy Spirit, give me a hunger for your word. Remove
19:01
Speaker 1: every distraction, every excuse, every laziness in my spirit. Open
19:05
Speaker 1: my eyes to see your truth. Let your word come
19:08
Speaker 1: alive in me. Let it transform me, strengthen me, fill me,
19:13
Speaker 1: let me crave it more than anything else. Because once
19:16
Speaker 1: you start walking in this hunger, once you begin diving
19:20
Speaker 1: deep into scripture and allowing the Holy Spirit to teach you,
19:25
Speaker 1: you will never be the same. The Bible will no
19:29
Speaker 1: longer be just a book. It will be your lifeline,
19:32
Speaker 1: and through it God will change you from the inside out.
19:37
Speaker 1: A hunger for the Word of God is one of
19:39
Speaker 1: the greatest gifts the Holy Spirit gives a believer. It
19:43
Speaker 1: changes everything, how you think, how you live, how you
19:48
Speaker 1: respond to the world around you. But there's something else
19:52
Speaker 1: that happens when the Spirit fills you. Your prayers are
19:56
Speaker 1: no longer just words. They become power you can Connection
20:00
Speaker 1: with God is no longer just something you do out
20:03
Speaker 1: of routine. It becomes a supernatural experience. The Holy Spirit
20:09
Speaker 1: does not just make you desire the word. He teaches
20:12
Speaker 1: you how to pray in a way that shakes heaven
20:14
Speaker 1: and earth. Prayer for many has always felt like a struggle.
20:20
Speaker 1: How many times have you started praying only to get
20:24
Speaker 1: distracted after a few minutes. How often have you tried
20:27
Speaker 1: to pray but the words felt empty, repetitive, forced. How
20:33
Speaker 1: many times have you sat there in silence, not knowing
20:36
Speaker 1: what to say, feeling like your prayers weren't really making
20:39
Speaker 1: a difference. This is where the Holy Spirit changes everything,
20:44
Speaker 1: because when he comes upon you, prayer becomes alive. It
20:48
Speaker 1: is no longer just talking. It is communion with God.
20:52
Speaker 1: It is no longer a discipline, It is an encounter.
20:56
Speaker 1: The Bible tells us that the Spirit helps us in
20:58
Speaker 1: our weakness. We do not know what we ought to
21:01
Speaker 1: pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through
21:05
Speaker 1: wordless groans Romans eight twenty six. This means that when
21:11
Speaker 1: we don't know what to pray, the Holy Spirit prays
21:14
Speaker 1: through us. He gives us the words when we have none.
21:18
Speaker 1: He leads us into intercession when we don't even realize
21:21
Speaker 1: what's needed, and for many believers, this is where something
21:25
Speaker 1: incredible happens. They begin to pray in the spirit. Maybe
21:31
Speaker 1: you've heard about this before. Maybe you've seen others pray
21:34
Speaker 1: in ways that seemed intense, powerful, even unexplainable. Maybe you've
21:40
Speaker 1: wondered is that real? Does that still happen today? The
21:44
Speaker 1: answer is yes, because when the Holy Spirit comes upon you,
21:49
Speaker 1: he doesn't just give you boldness. He gives you access
21:52
Speaker 1: to a deeper level of communication with God. This is
21:56
Speaker 1: what happened in Acts Too. The disciples were gathered waiting
22:00
Speaker 1: for the promise Jesus had given them, and then suddenly
22:05
Speaker 1: a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came
22:09
Speaker 1: from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting,
22:13
Speaker 1: and all of them were filled with the Holy Spirit
22:15
Speaker 1: and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit
22:18
Speaker 1: enabled them. Acts two colon two dash, for in that moment,
22:26
Speaker 1: something supernatural was unlocked. They were no longer just praying
22:30
Speaker 1: with their own understanding. They were praying with the Spirit,
22:34
Speaker 1: and from that moment on their prayers carried power, authority,
22:39
Speaker 1: and breakthrough. For some, this manifests praying in tongues, a
22:44
Speaker 1: language that the mind does not understand, but the spirit does.
22:49
Speaker 1: Paul spoke of this in Firs. Corinthians fourteen two, saying,
22:52
Speaker 1: for anyone who speaks in a tongue does not speak
22:55
Speaker 1: to people, but to God. Indeed, no one understands them.
22:59
Speaker 1: They utter and mysteries by the Spirit. This is not
23:03
Speaker 1: something that can be forced. It is not something that
23:06
Speaker 1: comes from human effort. It is a gift given by
23:09
Speaker 1: the Spirit, allowing you to pray beyond your own limitations.
23:14
Speaker 1: But even for those who do not experience tongues, the
23:17
Speaker 1: Holy Spirit still transforms prayer. He deepens it. He leads
23:22
Speaker 1: you in intercession. He stirs your spirit to pray in
23:26
Speaker 1: ways you never have before. You begin to feel a pull,
23:31
Speaker 1: a burden, an urgency to pray for things you didn't
23:34
Speaker 1: even think about before. You wake up in the middle
23:38
Speaker 1: of the night sensing that you need to pray. You
23:42
Speaker 1: find yourself calling out to God with a passion that
23:45
Speaker 1: wasn't there before. And this is why the enemy will
23:49
Speaker 1: do everything he can to stop you from praying. He
23:53
Speaker 1: will try to keep you distracted, tired, uninterested. He will
23:56
Speaker 1: whisper lies, telling you that your prayers don't really matter,
24:00
Speaker 1: that they're not making a difference that God isn't listening.
24:04
Speaker 1: But the truth is your prayers are shaking things in
24:08
Speaker 1: the unseen realm. Every time you pray, you are pushing
24:12
Speaker 1: back darkness. Every time you pray, you are stepping into
24:16
Speaker 1: spiritual warfare. And when the Holy Spirit is the one
24:20
Speaker 1: leading your prayers, the enemy stands no chance. So let
24:25
Speaker 1: me ask you how is your prayer life? Have you
24:28
Speaker 1: been feeling disconnected, unfocused, unmotivated. Have you felt like your
24:33
Speaker 1: prayers are weak, ineffective, powerless, or have you been sensing
24:37
Speaker 1: a shift, a stirring, a call to deeper prayer? Because
24:42
Speaker 1: if you are hungry for more, if you are ready
24:44
Speaker 1: to experience prayer in a way that goes beyond human limitations,
24:48
Speaker 1: then it's time to invite the Holy Spirit into it.
24:52
Speaker 1: Take a moment right now and pray. Holy Spirit, take
24:55
Speaker 1: over my prayer life, Lead me into deeper in Teach
25:01
Speaker 1: me how to pray with power, with authority, with boldness.
25:06
Speaker 1: Remove every distruction, every fear, every doubt. Fill my mouth
25:11
Speaker 1: with words that come from you. Let my prayers be
25:14
Speaker 1: guided by your spirit. Because once you allow the Holy
25:18
Speaker 1: Spirit to move through your prayers, you will never pray
25:21
Speaker 1: the same way again. Prayer will no longer be a struggle.
25:26
Speaker 1: It will be a place of power, of breakthrough, of
25:29
Speaker 1: supernatural connection with God, and through it you'll see things
25:33
Speaker 1: shift in your life that you never thought possible. When
25:37
Speaker 1: the Holy Spirit takes over your prayer life, when he
25:39
Speaker 1: begins to intercede through you, something else happens. Your spiritual
25:45
Speaker 1: gifts begin to awaken. Prayer is not just about communication,
25:51
Speaker 1: it is about activation. The more you surrender to the Spirit,
25:56
Speaker 1: the more you begin to see his power manifest in
26:00
Speaker 1: your life. Suddenly, things that once seemed impossible begin to happen.
26:06
Speaker 1: You start hearing his voice more clearly. You sense things
26:09
Speaker 1: in the spirit that you never noticed before, and you
26:12
Speaker 1: realize God has given you gifts that you never knew
26:16
Speaker 1: you had. For many believers, spiritual gifts feel like a mystery.
26:22
Speaker 1: Some have been told that miracles, prophecy, healings, those things
26:27
Speaker 1: were only for the early Church. Others believe that only
26:31
Speaker 1: a select few are gifted, that the average believer has
26:34
Speaker 1: no access to the supernatural. But this is not what
26:38
Speaker 1: Scripture teaches. The Bible says to each one, the manifestation
26:43
Speaker 1: of the Spirit is given for the common good. One
26:47
Speaker 1: Corinthians twelve seven to each one. That means, if you
26:53
Speaker 1: are filled with the Holy Spirit, you have access to
26:56
Speaker 1: spiritual gifts. They are not for a chosen few, they
27:01
Speaker 1: are for you, And when the spirit begins to move,
27:04
Speaker 1: you will start noticing things shift in your life. Maybe
27:08
Speaker 1: you feel an unexplainable pull to pray for someone, and
27:12
Speaker 1: the moment you do, they tell you they needed it
27:16
Speaker 1: at that exact moment. Maybe you open your mouth to
27:19
Speaker 1: encourage someone and suddenly words come out of you that
27:22
Speaker 1: feel beyond your own understanding. Maybe you lay hands on
27:26
Speaker 1: someone who is sick, and before you even finish praying,
27:30
Speaker 1: they begin to feel better. These are not coincidences. These
27:34
Speaker 1: are the gifts of the Holy Spirit at work. But
27:37
Speaker 1: here's the problem. Too many believers ignore these gifts. They
27:42
Speaker 1: explain them away. They feel a stirring in their spirit,
27:46
Speaker 1: but they hesitate. They sense a leading from God, but
27:50
Speaker 1: they doubt that's just my imagination. What if I'm wrong?
27:55
Speaker 1: What if nothing happens, and so they stay silent, They
27:58
Speaker 1: hold back. The gifts inside of them remain dormant, unused, wasted.
28:05
Speaker 1: What if Peter had ignored the spirit's leading, What if
28:08
Speaker 1: Paul had doubted that God could use him. What if
28:11
Speaker 1: the early church had been too afraid to step out
28:14
Speaker 1: in faith, the gospel would have never spread, miracles would
28:18
Speaker 1: have never happened, the world would have never been transformed.
28:21
Speaker 1: The same spirit that worked through them is the same
28:25
Speaker 1: spirit that lives in you. The only difference is they
28:28
Speaker 1: were willing to step out. So what about you? Have
28:32
Speaker 1: you been ignoring the spirits prompting? Have you felt something
28:35
Speaker 1: stirring inside of you, a boldness to pray for someone,
28:38
Speaker 1: a word of encouragement that you're afraid to say, a
28:41
Speaker 1: faith to believe for miracles, but you've talked yourself out
28:45
Speaker 1: of it. What if that hesitation is the only thing
28:48
Speaker 1: standing between you and a move of God. The Holy
28:54
Speaker 1: Spirit does not force himself on anyone. He is waiting
28:57
Speaker 1: for you to say yes. He is waiting for you
29:00
Speaker 1: to stop doubting, to stop hesitating, to stop wondering if
29:05
Speaker 1: you are good enough. Because here's the truth, you are
29:09
Speaker 1: not good enough, but he is. Your gifts are not
29:14
Speaker 1: about your ability, They are about His power working through you.
29:20
Speaker 1: And this is where faith comes in. You may not
29:23
Speaker 1: feel ready, you may not feel qualified, But if God
29:27
Speaker 1: is calling you, that means He has already equipped you.
29:31
Speaker 1: The gifts of the spirit are not about talent. They
29:34
Speaker 1: are about obedience, and the moment you step out in faith,
29:40
Speaker 1: you will see the power of God move through you
29:43
Speaker 1: in ways you never imagined. Take a moment and ask
29:47
Speaker 1: yourself what spiritual gifts have I been ignoring? What has
29:50
Speaker 1: the Holy Spirit been prompting me to do that I
29:53
Speaker 1: have been too afraid to step into? Because He is ready,
29:59
Speaker 1: The only question is are you pray this right now?
30:03
Speaker 1: Holy Spirit, awaken the gifts inside of me. Let me
30:06
Speaker 1: move in faith, not in fear. Give me boldness to
30:09
Speaker 1: step out. Remove every doubt, every hesitation, every excuse I
30:14
Speaker 1: surrender to you, use me, move through me. Let your
30:18
Speaker 1: power be seen in my life. And when you pray
30:21
Speaker 1: that prayer, expect something to shift, because once you open
30:25
Speaker 1: yourself to the gifts of the Spirit, you will never
30:28
Speaker 1: be the same. The moment you surrender to the Holy Spirit,
30:32
Speaker 1: when you stop resisting and allow him to take full
30:35
Speaker 1: control of your life, something supernatural is unlocked. It's not
30:40
Speaker 1: just boldness, it's not just a deeper prayer life. It's power, real, undeniable,
30:47
Speaker 1: earth shaking power. And this power is not just for you.
30:50
Speaker 1: It is given for a purpose, for the Kingdom, for
30:53
Speaker 1: the people around you, because when the Holy Spirit fills you,
30:56
Speaker 1: he gives you gifts supernatural abilities that go beyond human limitations.
31:02
Speaker 1: The Bible says to each one, the manifestation of the
31:06
Speaker 1: Spirit is given for the common good First Corinthians twelve seven.
31:12
Speaker 1: That means that every believer, every single person who carries
31:17
Speaker 1: the Holy Spirit, has been given gifts from heaven. These
31:21
Speaker 1: are not talents, they are not learned skills. They are
31:25
Speaker 1: supernatural manifestations of the Spirit of God working through you.
31:29
Speaker 1: And they are not for personal gain. They are for
31:31
Speaker 1: the Kingdom, for ministry, for the work of God on
31:34
Speaker 1: this earth. But here's where so many people get it wrong.
31:38
Speaker 1: Say think spiritual gifts are only for pastors, only for preachers,
31:42
Speaker 1: only for special people who are more anointed than others.
31:46
Speaker 1: But that is a lie. The Word of God makes
31:49
Speaker 1: it clear. The gifts are for each one that includes you,
31:53
Speaker 1: whether you feel qualified or not, whether you feel strong
31:57
Speaker 1: enough or not. If the Spirit of God is in
31:59
Speaker 1: so you, then the gifts of the Spirit are inside
32:03
Speaker 1: of you. So what are these gifts? The Bible lists
32:08
Speaker 1: several healing, prophecy, wisdom, knowledge, faith, miracles, discernment, tongues, interpretation
32:18
Speaker 1: of tongues. Some of these sound impossible. Some of them
32:21
Speaker 1: sound like something from the early Church, something that no
32:25
Speaker 1: longer happens today. But that is exactly what the enemy
32:29
Speaker 1: wants you to believe, because if you believe that spiritual
32:33
Speaker 1: gifts no longer exist, then you will never step into them.
32:37
Speaker 1: And if you never step into them, you will never
32:40
Speaker 1: walk in the full power of the Holy Spirit. Look
32:43
Speaker 1: around the world. Do you think we still need healing?
32:47
Speaker 1: Do you think there are people still suffering, still in
32:50
Speaker 1: need of a touch from God? Then healing is still needed.
32:55
Speaker 1: Do you think the church still needs wisdom, still needs
32:59
Speaker 1: divine an insight into the things of God, Then the
33:02
Speaker 1: gift of wisdom is still needed. Do you think there
33:06
Speaker 1: are still forces of darkness trying to deceive, trying to
33:10
Speaker 1: lead people astray, Then the gift of discernment is still needed.
33:15
Speaker 1: The same spirit that was given to the early Church
33:18
Speaker 1: is the same spirit working today. But too many people
33:21
Speaker 1: are sitting on their gifts. They are waiting for some
33:24
Speaker 1: dramatic moment, some supernatural encounter, some undeniable sign from Heaven
33:30
Speaker 1: that will make them step into what God has already
33:33
Speaker 1: given them. But here's the truth. The gifts of the
33:36
Speaker 1: spirit are already inside of you. You just have to
33:39
Speaker 1: activate them. Think about it like this. If someone gave
33:43
Speaker 1: you a rapt present but you never opened it, would
33:46
Speaker 1: you ever experience what was inside? Would you ever enjoy it,
33:51
Speaker 1: use it, benefit from it? Number it would sit there, untouched, unopened, wasted.
33:59
Speaker 1: That is exactly what happens when believers refuse to step
34:02
Speaker 1: into their spiritual gifts. God has already placed them inside
34:07
Speaker 1: of you, but if you never use them, you will
34:10
Speaker 1: never experience their power. So how do you activate them? Faith?
34:14
Speaker 1: You step out, You take a risk. You trust that
34:18
Speaker 1: if God has placed something inside of you, he will
34:21
Speaker 1: empower you to use it. You don't wait until you
34:25
Speaker 1: feel spiritual enough. You move and you let the spirit
34:29
Speaker 1: work through you. Maybe God has been stirring something in you,
34:32
Speaker 1: but you've been hesitant. Maybe you've felt a boldness to
34:36
Speaker 1: pray for someone, but you talked yourself out of it.
34:39
Speaker 1: Maybe you've had a word of encouragement for someone, but
34:42
Speaker 1: you stayed silent. Maybe you've sensed a deeper call to
34:46
Speaker 1: step out in faith, to lay hands on the sick,
34:49
Speaker 1: to prophesy, to believe for miracles, but you've been afraid
34:53
Speaker 1: of looking foolish. What if you stopped hesitating. What if
34:58
Speaker 1: you actually believed that the the Holy Spirit was inside
35:01
Speaker 1: of you waiting to move through you. The gifts of
35:05
Speaker 1: the spirit are not for a select few. They are
35:08
Speaker 1: for every believer who is willing to be used by God.
35:12
Speaker 1: So the only question is will you say yes? Will
35:15
Speaker 1: you let go of fear, let go of doubt, and
35:18
Speaker 1: step into what the Holy Spirit has placed inside of you.
35:22
Speaker 1: Pray this right now, Holy Spirit, activate the gifts inside
35:26
Speaker 1: of me. Remove every fear, every hesitation, every doubt. I
35:31
Speaker 1: surrender to you. Use me, move through me. Let your
35:36
Speaker 1: power be seen in my life. And when you pray
35:38
Speaker 1: that prayer, expect something to shift, because once you open
35:42
Speaker 1: yourself to the gifts of the spirit, you will never
35:46
Speaker 1: be the same. Spiritual gifts are powerful. They equip you
35:50
Speaker 1: for ministry, They bring healing, they reveal mysteries. They manifest
35:55
Speaker 1: the supernatural power of God in ways that cannot be ignored.
36:00
Speaker 1: But there is something even greater. Love. Without love, all
36:05
Speaker 1: the spiritual gifts in the world mean nothing. You can
36:08
Speaker 1: prophesy with accuracy, you can work miracles, you can have
36:12
Speaker 1: faith that moves mountains. But if you do not have love,
36:16
Speaker 1: you have missed the entire point. This is what the
36:19
Speaker 1: Holy Spirit does. He doesn't just give you power. He
36:23
Speaker 1: gives you the heart of God. He poors the love
36:26
Speaker 1: of God into you in a way that you cannot
36:29
Speaker 1: manufacture on your own. This is not normal love. This
36:34
Speaker 1: is not human love. This is love that goes beyond emotions,
36:37
Speaker 1: beyond circumstances, beyond logic. Think about your own heart before
36:42
Speaker 1: the Holy Spirit took over. Maybe you were guarded. Maybe
36:46
Speaker 1: you struggled to trust people, to open up to be vulnerable.
36:50
Speaker 1: Maybe you held grudges, kept records of wrongs, refuse to
36:55
Speaker 1: let go of past wounds. Maybe you loved but only
36:58
Speaker 1: when it was convenient. But when the Spirit of God
37:01
Speaker 1: filled you, everything changed. Suddenly love became natural, Forgiveness became easier,
37:10
Speaker 1: Compassion became something that flowed out of you instead of
37:13
Speaker 1: something you had to force. This is because the Holy
37:17
Speaker 1: Spirit does not just teach you about love. He places
37:21
Speaker 1: the love of God inside of you. Romans five five
37:26
Speaker 1: says the love of God has been poured into our
37:29
Speaker 1: hearts through the Holy Spirit. This means that love is
37:33
Speaker 1: not just something you try to do. It is something
37:35
Speaker 1: that now lives inside of you. The same love that
37:38
Speaker 1: Jesus had, the love that healed the sick, the love
37:41
Speaker 1: that forgave sinners, the love that embraced the outcasts, is
37:45
Speaker 1: now inside of you. And this changes everything. Because human
37:50
Speaker 1: love is conditional, It is based on how people treat you,
37:54
Speaker 1: based on what you get in return. But the love
37:57
Speaker 1: of God, the love the Holy Spirit places inside of you,
38:01
Speaker 1: is unconditional. It does not love because of who someone is.
38:06
Speaker 1: It loves because of who God is. This is why
38:10
Speaker 1: a spirit filled believer forgives easily, not because the person
38:14
Speaker 1: deserves it, but because you have been forgiven of much,
38:17
Speaker 1: so how can you not extend that same mercy to others.
38:21
Speaker 1: This is why a spirit filled believer loves their enemies,
38:25
Speaker 1: not because it's easy, but because the love inside of
38:28
Speaker 1: you is stronger than the hate that comes against you.
38:32
Speaker 1: This is why a spirit filled believer does not hold
38:35
Speaker 1: on to bitterness, not because the hurt wasn't real, but
38:39
Speaker 1: because the Holy Spirit refuses to let your heart be
38:43
Speaker 1: poisoned by unforgiveness. Maybe this is exactly where you're struggling
38:49
Speaker 1: right now. Maybe there's someone you know you need to forgive,
38:51
Speaker 1: but you can't. Maybe there's a wound in your heart
38:54
Speaker 1: that you have been holding onto for years. Maybe there
38:58
Speaker 1: is a bitterness in sight of you that you have
39:01
Speaker 1: tried to ignore, but it's still there, and no matter
39:05
Speaker 1: how much you try to move on, it still rises
39:09
Speaker 1: up when you think about what happened. This is where
39:13
Speaker 1: the Holy Spirit comes in. You cannot love like Jesus
39:16
Speaker 1: on your own. You cannot forgive like Jesus on your own.
39:21
Speaker 1: You need the Spirit of God to do in you
39:24
Speaker 1: what you cannot do for yourself. Because real love, the
39:28
Speaker 1: kind that changes lives, the kind that breaks chains, the
39:32
Speaker 1: kind that reveals God, is not a feeling. It is
39:38
Speaker 1: a supernatural work of the Holy Spirit inside of you.
39:43
Speaker 1: Think about Stephen Inact seven, as he was being stoned
39:47
Speaker 1: to death, with his enemies throwing rocks at him, crushing
39:50
Speaker 1: his body. What did he say, Lord, do not hold
39:55
Speaker 1: this sin against them? Who does that? Who prays for
39:59
Speaker 1: their murderers in the moment of their suffering, Someone who
40:02
Speaker 1: is filled with the Holy Spirit, Someone who carries the
40:05
Speaker 1: same love that Jesus carried when he hung on the
40:08
Speaker 1: cross and said, Father, forgive them, for they do not
40:11
Speaker 1: know what they are doing. This is what the Holy
40:15
Speaker 1: Spirit wants to do in you. He wants to make
40:18
Speaker 1: you a living reflection of Jesus. He wants to take
40:21
Speaker 1: away the pain, the anger, the resentment that has been
40:25
Speaker 1: sitting in your heart and replace it with love. And
40:28
Speaker 1: when that happens, you will begin to love in a
40:30
Speaker 1: way you never thought possible. You will love people who
40:34
Speaker 1: don't deserve it. You will have compassion for people who
40:37
Speaker 1: used to frustrate you. You will forgive people who never apologized,
40:41
Speaker 1: and you won't even understand why. Because this love, it's
40:45
Speaker 1: not from you. It's from God, and it is alive
40:49
Speaker 1: inside of you because His spirit is inside of you.
40:54
Speaker 1: So right now, ask yourself, is there someone I need
40:57
Speaker 1: to forgive? Is their love that I have been withholding?
41:01
Speaker 1: Is there bitterness I have been holding onto? Because if
41:05
Speaker 1: there is, the Holy Spirit is ready to set you free.
41:08
Speaker 1: Pray this Holy Spirit pour your love into me. Remove
41:12
Speaker 1: every trace of bitterness, every wound that I have been
41:14
Speaker 1: holding onto. Teach me to love like Jesus, Teach me
41:19
Speaker 1: to forgive. Let your love be so strong in me
41:22
Speaker 1: that it overflows to everyone around me. Change my heart.
41:26
Speaker 1: Fill me with your love and When you truly surrender
41:30
Speaker 1: to that prayer, watch what happens. The love of God
41:33
Speaker 1: will take over your heart and you will never love
41:36
Speaker 1: the same way again. When the Holy Spirit fills your
41:39
Speaker 1: heart with God's love, everything about you begins to change.
41:43
Speaker 1: Love is not just something you show. It becomes who
41:46
Speaker 1: you are. You no longer react to situations the way
41:49
Speaker 1: you used to. Your thoughts shift, your desires shift, even
41:54
Speaker 1: your emotions shift. And the more you walk with the Spirit,
41:57
Speaker 1: the more your life begins to bear fruit evidence that
42:01
Speaker 1: something supernatural has taken root inside of you. This is
42:05
Speaker 1: what the Bible calls the fruit of the spirit. It
42:09
Speaker 1: is not something you force, It is not something you
42:13
Speaker 1: try to manufacture. It is something the Holy Spirit produces
42:17
Speaker 1: in you when he truly takes over. Galatians five twenty
42:21
Speaker 1: two to twenty three says the fruit of the Spirit
42:25
Speaker 1: is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and
42:32
Speaker 1: self control. These are not just personality traits. They are
42:37
Speaker 1: supernatural markers of a transformed life. Anyone can be kind
42:43
Speaker 1: when it's convenient, anyone can show patience when things are
42:46
Speaker 1: going their way. But when the Spirit of God is
42:50
Speaker 1: inside of you, you begin to produce these fruits even
42:54
Speaker 1: when it doesn't make sense. Think about your own life.
42:58
Speaker 1: Have you ever looked back in real life that you
43:01
Speaker 1: don't react the way you used to. Maybe you used
43:05
Speaker 1: to be quick tempered, snapping at people in frustration, but
43:09
Speaker 1: now there's a patience in you that you never had before.
43:13
Speaker 1: Maybe you used to hold onto offenses, struggling to let
43:17
Speaker 1: things go, but now you forgive easily, even when people
43:21
Speaker 1: don't deserve it. Maybe you used to live in constant anxiety,
43:26
Speaker 1: fearing the unknown, but now you have a piece that
43:29
Speaker 1: you can't even explain. This is not because you worked
43:33
Speaker 1: harder to be a better person. This is because the
43:36
Speaker 1: Holy Spirit is producing something inside of you that is
43:40
Speaker 1: beyond your human ability. It is fruit, And just like
43:45
Speaker 1: a tree does not have to strain to produce fruit,
43:48
Speaker 1: it happens naturally when it is connected to the source,
43:51
Speaker 1: so it is with you. The more you remain connected
43:56
Speaker 1: to the Holy Spirit, the more your life begins to
44:00
Speaker 1: reflect him. But here's the hard truth. If there is
44:04
Speaker 1: no fruit, there is no real transformation. Jesus said, you
44:08
Speaker 1: will know them by their fruits Matthew seven sixteen. That
44:13
Speaker 1: means that a true encounter with the Holy Spirit is
44:16
Speaker 1: always followed by change. If someone claims to be spirit
44:21
Speaker 1: filled but still lives in constant anger, impatience, selfishness, and
44:26
Speaker 1: lack of self control, something is missing. The Holy Spirit
44:31
Speaker 1: does not enter a person and leave them the same.
44:35
Speaker 1: He produces fruit. So let me ask you, what does
44:41
Speaker 1: your life look like right now? When people look at you?
44:44
Speaker 1: Do they see love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness,
44:53
Speaker 1: and self control? Or do they see anger, frustration, selfishness,
44:59
Speaker 1: and a lack of peace? Because here's the truth, you
45:02
Speaker 1: cannot fake the fruit of the spirit. You can pretend
45:05
Speaker 1: for a little while, but in time your real nature
45:09
Speaker 1: will show. Maybe you're reading this and thinking, I still
45:13
Speaker 1: struggle with anger, I still lose my patience, I don't
45:17
Speaker 1: always feel joyful. Does that mean I don't have the
45:20
Speaker 1: Holy Spirit? No, it doesn't mean that. It means that
45:24
Speaker 1: there are still areas in your life where you need
45:27
Speaker 1: to surrender more to him. Because the more you surrender,
45:31
Speaker 1: the more he takes over, The more he takes over,
45:34
Speaker 1: the more fruit you produce. Think about a tree. If
45:38
Speaker 1: it's not producing fruit, the problem is never the fruit itself,
45:43
Speaker 1: The problem is the roots. If the roots are not deep.
45:48
Speaker 1: If they are not healthy, the tree cannot bear good fruit.
45:51
Speaker 1: And it is the same with us. If we are
45:53
Speaker 1: not deeply rooted in the Holy Spirit, if we are
45:56
Speaker 1: not spending time in his presence, if we are not
45:59
Speaker 1: allowing Him to work work in us daily, our fruit
46:02
Speaker 1: will be weak. So how do you grow stronger? You
46:05
Speaker 1: remain connected to him. You stop trying to change yourself
46:08
Speaker 1: in your own strength, and instead you let him do
46:11
Speaker 1: the work inside of you. You allow him to correct you,
46:14
Speaker 1: to convict you, to prune you. You surrender, and the
46:19
Speaker 1: more you do, the more His nature becomes your nature.
46:22
Speaker 1: Are you struggling with anger, The Holy Spirit can replace
46:26
Speaker 1: it with patience. Are you constantly anxious? The Holy Spirit
46:30
Speaker 1: can fill you with peace. Do you feel like you
46:33
Speaker 1: have no self control? The Holy Spirit can give you discipline.
46:37
Speaker 1: The fruit of the Spirit is not about trying harder.
46:41
Speaker 1: It is about staying connected. A tree does not have
46:45
Speaker 1: to strive to bear fruit. It simply stays rooted, and
46:49
Speaker 1: as long as it is rooted, fruit comes naturally. The
46:53
Speaker 1: same is true for you. Stay rooted in Him and
46:57
Speaker 1: He will transform you from the inside. Et pray this
47:01
Speaker 1: right now, Holy Spirit, produce your fruit in me. Let love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness,
47:10
Speaker 1: and self control flow from my life. Remove anything in
47:15
Speaker 1: me that does not reflect you. Help me to stay connected,
47:19
Speaker 1: to stay rooted in You, so that my life will
47:22
Speaker 1: bear the evidence of your presence. And as you pray that,
47:26
Speaker 1: watch what happens. The more you surrender, the more you
47:30
Speaker 1: stay in His presence, the more your life will begin
47:33
Speaker 1: to change. You won't have to force it. It will
47:36
Speaker 1: happen naturally, because when the Holy Spirit is truly working
47:42
Speaker 1: in you, fruit will follow. A life filled with the
47:47
Speaker 1: Holy Spirit does not just change the way you act,
47:50
Speaker 1: It changes the way you see everything. The fruit of
47:54
Speaker 1: the Spirit is proof that God is transforming you from
47:58
Speaker 1: the inside out, shaping your heart, refining your character, making
48:03
Speaker 1: you a new creation. But as the Spirit begins to
48:07
Speaker 1: work within you, something else happens. You begin to see
48:11
Speaker 1: your life with a new sense of purpose. Suddenly, the
48:14
Speaker 1: things that once seemed random no longer feel like accidents.
48:19
Speaker 1: The things that once confused you now start making sense.
48:23
Speaker 1: Your calling, your mission, your very reason for being here.
48:28
Speaker 1: It all becomes clear. Before the Holy Spirit, life can
48:32
Speaker 1: feel directionless. You try to figure out what you're supposed
48:35
Speaker 1: to do, but nothing quite fits. You chase after goals, careers, relationships, achievements,
48:42
Speaker 1: but there's always this lingering feeling that something is missing.
48:47
Speaker 1: You wonder if you're on the right path. You question
48:50
Speaker 1: your decisions, You feel stuck, uncertain, lost, and no matter
48:55
Speaker 1: how much success or stability you achieve, there's still this
48:58
Speaker 1: sense of emptiness. But when the Holy Spirit comes upon you,
49:02
Speaker 1: everything changes. The confusion lifts, the uncertainty disappears. You begin
49:11
Speaker 1: to see your life through God's eyes. Instead of wandering
49:15
Speaker 1: aimlessly trying to piece everything together on your own, the
49:18
Speaker 1: Holy Spirit begins to reveal the purpose God has had
49:23
Speaker 1: for you all along. This is what Jesus promised in
49:26
Speaker 1: John sixteen thirteen when he said, when the Spirit of
49:30
Speaker 1: Truth comes, he will guide you into all truth. The
49:35
Speaker 1: Holy Spirit is not just a force. He is a guide.
49:39
Speaker 1: He is the one who directs your steps, who speaks
49:42
Speaker 1: to your spirit, who gives you clarity when everything around
49:46
Speaker 1: you seems uncertain. He does not leave you in the dark.
49:50
Speaker 1: He reveals, He leads. He gives purpose where there was
49:55
Speaker 1: once confusion. Think about the disciples before the Holy Spirit.
50:00
Speaker 1: They had spent years with Jesus witnessing his miracles, hearing
50:04
Speaker 1: his teachings, watching him change lives, But they still didn't
50:09
Speaker 1: fully understand their purpose. They were still afraid, still unsure,
50:13
Speaker 1: still wondering what they were supposed to do. After Jesus left,
50:17
Speaker 1: then Pentecost happened. The Holy Spirit came upon them like
50:23
Speaker 1: a rushing wind, filling them with power, and in an
50:26
Speaker 1: instant they knew they were no longer just fishermen, tax collectors,
50:32
Speaker 1: ordinary men. They were world changers. They were messengers of
50:36
Speaker 1: the Gospel. They had a mission, and nothing could stop them.
50:40
Speaker 1: The same men who had once hidden in fear were
50:43
Speaker 1: now preaching boldly, healing the sick, casting out demons, standing
50:48
Speaker 1: before rulers and authorities without hesitation. Because when the Holy
50:53
Speaker 1: Spirit fills you, you don't just live, You live with
50:58
Speaker 1: divine purpose. What about you? Have you been feeling lost?
51:02
Speaker 1: Have you been wondering what your calling is, what you
51:05
Speaker 1: were created to do? Have you been searching for meaning,
51:09
Speaker 1: for direction, for a reason to wake up every morning
51:12
Speaker 1: with passion and drive? The Holy Spirit is the answer.
51:15
Speaker 1: He is the one who can reveal what God has
51:18
Speaker 1: placed inside of you. He is the one who can
51:21
Speaker 1: show you why you were born what your gifts are,
51:24
Speaker 1: where you are meant to go, and how to step
51:26
Speaker 1: into the fullness of God's plan for your life. But
51:30
Speaker 1: here's the truth. If you are not listening, you will
51:33
Speaker 1: not hear him. If you are too distracted, too busy
51:36
Speaker 1: chasing things that were never meant for you, you will miss
51:40
Speaker 1: what the Holy Spirit is trying to show you. God
51:43
Speaker 1: has a purpose for you. He designed you with intention,
51:47
Speaker 1: with a specific assignment, with a role that only you
51:51
Speaker 1: can fulfill in the Kingdom. But in order to walk
51:54
Speaker 1: in that calling, you must be led by the Spirit.
51:58
Speaker 1: Maybe you've been praying for direction but you feel like
52:01
Speaker 1: God is silent. Maybe you've been waiting for a clear
52:05
Speaker 1: answer but nothing seems to be happening. Ask yourself this,
52:10
Speaker 1: Are you truly listening? Are you creating space for the
52:14
Speaker 1: Holy Spirit to speak? Or are you filling your mind
52:18
Speaker 1: with so much noise that his voice is getting drowned out.
52:23
Speaker 1: The Holy Spirit does not scream, He whispers. He leads
52:27
Speaker 1: those who are willing to follow. He reveals purpose to
52:30
Speaker 1: those who are willing to surrender. If you are truly
52:34
Speaker 1: ready to understand why you were created, if you are
52:37
Speaker 1: truly ready to walk in your calling, then it starts
52:40
Speaker 1: with surrender. Pray this right now, Holy Spirit. I surrender
52:44
Speaker 1: my plans, my ambitions, my desires. Lead me, show me
52:49
Speaker 1: why I was created, Reveal the purpose you have placed
52:53
Speaker 1: inside of me. Speak to me and I will listen.
52:57
Speaker 1: Guide me and I will follow. I don't want to
53:00
Speaker 1: live in confusion anymore. I want to walk in the
53:03
Speaker 1: fullness of my calling. And when you pray that prayer,
53:06
Speaker 1: expect things to change. Expect doors to open that you
53:10
Speaker 1: never imagined. Expect clarity to replace confusion. Expect a new
53:16
Speaker 1: fire to rise within you. Because when the Holy Spirit
53:19
Speaker 1: reveals your purpose, your life will never be the same.
53:24
Speaker 1: When the Holy Spirit reveals your purpose, your life is
53:27
Speaker 1: no longer random. You wake up with a reason. You
53:31
Speaker 1: walk with confidence, knowing that your steps are ordered. You
53:35
Speaker 1: no longer waste time chasing things that don't matter, because
53:39
Speaker 1: now you see clearly what you were created for. The
53:42
Speaker 1: confusion is gone, the uncertainty is gone. You are walking
53:47
Speaker 1: in alignment with the will of God. And when that happens,
53:51
Speaker 1: nothing can stop you. But here's the real question. Do
53:54
Speaker 1: you want this? Do you truly want the Holy Spirit
53:58
Speaker 1: to fill you in a way that changes everything? Because
54:01
Speaker 1: this is not something you can casually say yes to.
54:04
Speaker 1: This is a surrender. This is a willingness to let
54:07
Speaker 1: go of control, to give up your own plans, to say, God,
54:11
Speaker 1: whatever you want for me, I want that, even if
54:15
Speaker 1: it's different from what I imagined, even if it means
54:18
Speaker 1: stepping into the unknown. Maybe you've felt something stirring inside
54:23
Speaker 1: of you as you've been listening to this. Maybe you've
54:26
Speaker 1: realized that you have been living without the fullness of
54:29
Speaker 1: the Spirit, without his power, without his guidance. Maybe you've
54:34
Speaker 1: been trying to do this on your own and you
54:36
Speaker 1: are exhausted, frustrated, feeling stuck. You were never meant to
54:40
Speaker 1: do this without him. The Holy Spirit was sent so
54:43
Speaker 1: that you would never have to walk alone, never have
54:45
Speaker 1: to figure things out by yourself, never have to rely
54:49
Speaker 1: on your own strength. He is here right now, and
54:54
Speaker 1: he is waiting for you to invite him in. So
54:57
Speaker 1: let's not wait. Let's pray. If you are ready for
55:00
Speaker 1: the Holy Spirit to fill your life, to transform you,
55:04
Speaker 1: to lead you into purpose, pray this with everything inside
55:08
Speaker 1: of you, Holy Spirit. I surrender. I am done trying
55:12
Speaker 1: to do this in my own strength. I need you.
55:15
Speaker 1: I invite you to come into my life in a
55:17
Speaker 1: way I have never experienced before. Fill me, change me,
55:21
Speaker 1: empower me, Remove everything in me that does not reflect you.
55:26
Speaker 1: Ignite a hunger in me for your word, for your presence,
55:29
Speaker 1: for righteousness. I don't just want to know about you.
55:32
Speaker 1: I want to walk with you. Lead me. Teach me
55:35
Speaker 1: how to pray in the spirit, reveal my purpose, Awaken
55:39
Speaker 1: the gifts inside of me. Give me boldness, give me wisdom.
55:44
Speaker 1: Let my life be a reflection of your power, your love,
55:47
Speaker 1: and your holiness. I receive you now in Jesus name. Amen.
55:54
Speaker 1: If you just prayed that, get ready because something is
55:56
Speaker 1: about to shift in your life. You are going to
55:59
Speaker 1: start seeing things differently. You are going to start hearing
56:02
Speaker 1: God's voice more clearly. Doors are going to open, chains
56:06
Speaker 1: are going to break. You will never be the same.
56:10
Speaker 1: Let us know in the comments, what are you believing for?
56:13
Speaker 1: What has the Holy Spirit been speaking to you through
56:16
Speaker 1: this message? Stay strong, stay aware, stay close to God,
56:20
Speaker 1: stay blessed.
