“No prophecy ever came by the will of man: but holy men of God spoke, being moved by the Holy Spirit.” [1]
People were moved by the Holy Spirit to speak...
Even Jesus noted, “The Spirit of the Lord is on Me, because HE has anointed Me to preach good news to the poor. HE has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim release to the captives, recovering of sight to the blind, to deliver those who are crushed.” [2]
Jesus also said, “If I by the Spirit of God cast out demons, then God’s Kingdom has come upon you.” [3]
When was the Church most vibrant and most effective?
Jesus told the founders of His Church, “You will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you.” [4]
“Dear Heavenly Father, Jesus the Son, please continue to pour out Your Holy Spirit upon us and upon our world. We ask to be moved to speak for You. We ask for Your anointing to proclaim Good News to the poor, to heal brokenhearted people, to set captives free, to give sight to the blind and to deliver people from being crushed. Holy Spirit please graciously continue to bring God’s kingdom to earth and cast out evil. For it is in the matchless Name of Jesus that I pray. Amen.”
