Spirit the baptism of the Holy Spirit and the life being full of the Holy Spirit and I believe the Lord will use these messages that he's laid on my heart to complement the messages on the foundation in Jesus Christ that Paul

Holy Spirit and experiencing the Holy Spirit's fullness in our lives I want you to turn with me to first Peter chapter 5 we've heard it often and I'll say it again because it's worth

opened. And you read all of that. I don't have time to read it all, but he says verse 13, "If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly father give the Holy Spirit to

that you would know the love of God which is in Christ Jesus. Romans 5:5, we just read it. The love of God shed abroad through the Holy Spirit. So that you come in and experience Christ Jesus in a way that it's a steadfast love. And

again we want to be disciples and paul came in and the very first question he asked them listen to this have you received the holy spirit are you filled with the holy spirit oh yeah i know you're a disciple i know you're born again i know you're baptized

very simply God is no respector of persons he is a rewarder of those who diligently seek him that's just the plain and simple truth and if you want to be filled with the Holy Spirit and you're not filled with the Holy Spirit I just say go and seek Him don't

after the million time they finally want to give up. God says, "Now you're ready for the Holy Spirit." And that's my testimony, brothers and sisters, that I experienced I have experienced the true filling of the Holy Spirit. I believe

and God doesn't want to tease you dear brother dear sister dear children I hope you children are praying for God to fill you with his holy spirit you should be praying at a young age I hope that's your prayer you hear us say this often

fresh with the Holy Spirit. How do I know that that's what he was praying for? Because that's the next thing that happened. While he was praying, heaven was opened and the Holy Spirit descended upon him in bodily form like a dove. And

his holy spirit within you now you will feel bad before you get caught now what will happen is when you're with your friends and your parents are not there and they're talking about these things and you know those are bad things and

I'm not walking in the light I'm not living by the power of the Holy Spirit I can't imagine that any good fruit would come out of it every 3 verse 19 this was already referred to this morning that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown

the Holy Spirit. This was yes, they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, but the reason for that was that every one of them, every single one of them had a burning desire. And so the Holy Spirit could rest on this person and on that

the Holy Spirit and I believe that in order to really have this discipleship and fellowship we must be filled with the Holy Spirit we've heard a little bit about that already this the previous session I'd like to share a little bit

one thing is common that I see with all of them when they came to the experience of being filled with the Holy Spirit it they really started to suffer they really started to be put through the grinder as it were it became

1:8 Jesus made it very clear that the mark of the baptism in the Holy Spirit would be power it couldn't be more clear than what he says in Acts 1:8 you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has

where the the baptism in the Holy Spirit doesn't just become this add-on where I'm born again I'm baptized and and I'm seeking to be a disciple and then oh yeah you know as a icing on top of the cake you can have the fullness of

Sometimes you can say well, I'm a sure I'm sure I'm saved. I believe I'm going to go and spend eternity with Christ, but I don't know about being filled with the Holy Spirit. Am I filled? And the devil can rob us. See, the devil

thing as a life of floating when you're filled with the Holy Spirit now you're ready to fight and you're ready to win take up the battle brother sister by the power of the Holy Spirit crucify the flesh with its lust

holy spirit let us follow the spirit a lot of people are expecting the life of being filled with the Holy Spirit as the Pinnacle that's it I was filled with the Holy SP Spirit now what what's left Lord just come and take me

trials. That's the the most beautiful way to live. Uh let's get right into the message that I believe the Lord has laid on my heart today. I think it is the last uh in the series I have been teaching on the baptism of the Holy Spirit. And as you

a witness of Christ if you are filled with the Holy Spirit. You know what that ought to do? What that did did for me a few years ago is I realized that if I was living a life not filled with the Holy Spirit, which up up to that point

go to sleep it's okay your sins are forgiven your family life is decent your marriage decent it's okay just go to sleep things okay go to sleep till Jesus comes back and the Holy Spirit says wake up sleeper wake up from the dead or rise from the

it might be and then there is the greatest teacher of them all and that is the holy spirit himself I have come to see through my years of seeking to follow the Lord that the key to the Christian life is very

I would like to continue speaking on the Holy Spirit and you can probably tell already it's it's um a burden that's burning on my heart and if it flows out of me to you in my preaching it's because I I just more and more
