1.2: Outcomes of the Holy Spirit
”Now the company of believers was of one heart and soul, and not one of them claimed that anything which he possessed was [exclusively] his own, but everything they had was in common and for the use of all. And with great strength and ability and power the apostles delivered their testimony to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and great grace (loving-kindness and favor and goodwill) rested richly upon them all. Nor was there a destitute or needy person among them, for as many as were owners of lands or houses proceeded to sell them, and one by one they brought (gave back) the amount received from the sales“
Acts 4:32-34 AMPC
As we discussed last time, the Holy Spirit empowers us to effectively fulfill His call on our lives! Here we see that not only does the Holy Spirit bring freedom, boldness and courage, but also:
Unity
When the Holy Spirit comes, you don’t care to Gossip, have strife, or any other small- unimportant thing. When your eyes are fixed on moving forward in the things of God, you don’t care to look to the left or right, instead you’re at a constant upward trajectory, on the move for God.
Heart fixed on God
The Holy Spirit is part of the Godhead, fellowship with Him unlocks characteristics of God, causing you to fall more and more in love with Him! God had given us all the necessary tools to live life for Him! When your heart is fixed on God, no worldly treasure can amount to how much He actually means to you!
Increase in anointing for preaching!
As you see here, the effects of the Holy Spirit are favor, power for preaching, grace to preach, and great strength and anointing. These all occur JUST by the INFILLING of the Holy Spirit!!
Great Wealth
When the Holy Spirit came upon the people of Jerusalem, the blessing of God came upon them! They were landowners, and generous givers! This is the plan of God for your life!
In order to activate these things in your life, pray in the Holy Ghost for 1 hour everyday!! Prayer is the key to unlocking the secrets of God! You can pray while cleaning, doing homework, getting ready, or anything is. Praying in the Holy Ghost is a VITAL part for a Christian to have any success in life!
