Acts 1:8 - Power of the Holy Ghost

Exposition

But you will receive power, when the Holy Ghost has come upon you: and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and Samaria, and to the end of the earth – The difference between success and failure in the life of a Child of God is the power of the Holy Ghost. It is what differentiates between the ordinary and the extraordinary.

When the ministry of Jesus Christ was about to end on earth, He told His disciples to wait for the baptism of the Holy Spirit before they did anything. The calling of the disciples was to spread the gospel and without the Holy Ghost it would not happen.  John 1: 12 says But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name. To become a son of God is to operate in power. The day you became a child of God, you Holy Spirit started a new work in you.

The Holy Spirit teaches sons all things (John 14:26) and gives sons the ability to remember all they have been taught. Mentioning a few, the Holy Spirit gives knowledge, strength, courage and endurance to overcome trials.

Child of God, the Holy Spirit is associated with power, you have power. The power is not limited to certain areas of life, it is for all areas. The power is the divine enabler that will take you to the top. It is creative and it gives wisdom. Be aware of what you have, search and start making a difference.

Prayer

Let every ignorance of who I am in Christ die today in Jesus name. I need the power of the Holy Spirit to start working in me. Let the wisdom of Christ be stirred up in me. Let creative juices flow in me. Let the solutions to all issues of my life be opened up now in Jesus name. Let every lesser power bow now in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Amen
