Acts 1:8 “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” ♬ Hymn for scheduled worship: Korean/English Hymnal #285 O Happy Day, That Fixed My Choice (#209 in previous version) The filling of the Holy Spirit is the last promise to us from Jesus. If the center of our lives is in God and the field, then the Holy Spirit will work even in failure, and our lives and surroundings will change. When our surroundings change, the forces of darkness around our lives will crumble down, and the Holy Spirit will work. Because we have limitations in our own strength, He promised to give us the filling of the Holy Spirit. People in the Bible who had the Gospel longed for this answer and found the answer from God. What is that answer?
1. Amidst problems and troubles, you must break your mold Science can make useful things for human life but cannot solve spiritual problems. The knowledge of the world and science try to fill up the empty gap inside mankind, but fatal problems have increased. No matter how much science develops, it is impossible to find the answer from God and hard to prove that God is living. When you meet a problem or conflict, you must break away from the mold made by the world and your own thoughts in order to see God’s answer.
2. Enjoy the power of prayer in your life Job in the Bible lived an anxious life thinking, “What if things go wrong, what should I do?” before he restored his relationship with God. Job’s unbelief was revealed as it was in his life. Our lives change according to what we think and enjoy. If we connect thoughts from God with our studies and field, we can bear all difficulties. We gain strength to endure when we enjoy the power of prayer of enjoying Christ in us.
3. Know the answer of uniqueness that saves the field and the world We serve God’s will through worship and listen to the Word to hear God’s voice. If a believer asks for God’s will through prayer, it is normal for answers to appear in his life. Nevertheless, there are times when answers do not come even if we pray. Our thoughts centered on us are a hindrance to receiving the answer of uniqueness. Correct prayer is not asking for what is mine but holding onto what is God’s. Also, when my will becomes one with Christ, He works inside of me and gives me the answer of uniqueness.
Forum Topic You must receive the answer of uniqueness of having Jesus Christ in control of your life in order for your spiritual eyes to open and you to gain strength. Your incorrect mold is what hinders answers from coming. Break your mold, and begin the prayer to enjoy what belongs to God.
