BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
Romans 15:13 Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy
and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy
Spirit.
Romans 15: 19 in mighty signs and wonders, by the power of
the Spirit of God, so that from Jerusalem and round about to Illyricum I have
fully preached the gospel of Christ.
It’s unfortunate for them that Christians are not taught to
trust the power of the Holy Spirit in and for all things but struggle on their
own to get faith or hope, to operate in the gifts off the Spirit or to see or
have miracles. Mind you Jesus didn’t
have this problem as He was filled with the Holy Spirit from birth and didn’t
minister in mighty signs and wonders without the power of the Spirit of God.
God’s word is true:
Luke 4:18 " The Spirit of the LORD is upon Me, Because
He has anointed Me To preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the
brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives And recovery of sight to the
blind, To set at liberty those who are oppressed; 19 To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD."
1 Corinthians 2:11 For what man knows the things of a man
except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things
of God except the Spirit of God. 12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the
world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have
been freely given to us by God. 13 These things we also speak, not in
words which man's wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing
spiritual things with spiritual. 14 But the natural man does not receive the
things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know
them, because they are spiritually discerned. 15 But he who is spiritual judges
all things, yet he himself is rightly judged by no one. 16 For "who has
known the mind of the LORD that he may instruct Him?" But we have the mind
of Christ.
1 Corinthians 12: 4 There are diversities of gifts, but the
same Spirit. 5 There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord. 6 And
there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in
all. 7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit
of all: 8 for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another
the word of knowledge through the same Spirit, 9 to another faith by the same
Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit, 10 to another the
working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to
another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. 11
But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one
individually as He wills.
