Theme: Holy Spirit Level Changer, Bring It To An End. ( Part 2 ).
Texts: Luke 24: 49, John 16 : 5-16 ,Acts 1:8,Acts 2:1-4
Introduction:
= The Greatest Advantage The Believer And The Church Has Over This Fallen World/ Evil And Wicked Systems That Rule And Satanic Power Is The Holy Spirit.
In John 16 : 7 According To Isv Translation, Jesus Said " It Is For Your Advantage That I Am Going Away = So The Holy Spirit Is Indeed Our Advantage.
Again The Holy Spirit Is Called In This Verse 7, The Helper ( Greek = Parakletos = Comforter, Advocate ( Defender In Court ) , Aid, Intercessor.
He Was The One Who Helped Jesus To Fulfil His Mission Among Men Here On Earth.
A Life Without The Holy Spirit Is Empty/ Hopeless/ Dry/ Failure/ A Serious Disadvantage.
A Life Without The Holy Spirit Is Incomplete
The Holy Spirit Is A Level Changer Ie
He Changes You First From Within ( Inside )
He Changes Your Mindset
He Changes Your Lifestyle And Attitude
He Changes Your Taste
He Resets You
He Resets You To Suit Gods Standard
He Rebrands You.
He Changes Your Perception About Things Around You.
The Holy Spirit Is A Person , A Being Not A Thing .
Why Are Many Christians Falling Into Traps/ Wrong Marriages/ Wrong Choices/ Wrong Decisions.
Why Do We Take Steps Before We Regret It.
Why Do We Make Choices Only To Regret It.
Because We Have Ignored Or Negleted The Holy Spirit
We Dont Give Him Time To Interact With Us
Our Egos Are Too Strong
What The Holy Spirit Told Me About Emotional People And A Certain Tribe = The Always Miss The Perfect Will Of God.
Can You Imagine A Spirit Filled Christian:
Entrepreneur
Teacher/ Professor
Student
Business Man Or Woman
Designer
Farmer
Mechanic

= The Holy Spirit Is The Level Changer
He Has Come To Make Us To Become Witnesses
A Witness Is Somebody Who Testify About What He Has Seen, Heard And Experienced About Christ, About The Power Of God, About The Effect Of The Word.
A. The Holy Spirit Descended On The Day Of Pentecost To Change To Levels Of The Disciples.
1. From Fearful Peter Who Out Of Fear Denied Jesus Christ 3 Times Before A Small Girl ( Matthew 26 : 69 - 75 ) To A Bold And Fearless Peter ( Acts 4: 1 - 12 )

He Changes Our Outlook/ Countenance
He Grants Us The Ability To Do What We Couldn't Do

3. Examples Of People Who After Encountering Gods Power Became Testimonies/ Testifiers / Witnesses Of What They Have Experienced
( I ). Abraham = From Abram To Abraham = Genesis 17 : 1 – 5
The Parents Gave Him Abram ( Exalted Father )= Note That In Those Days Names Were Prophetic
Names Were Giving By The Expectations From The Parents Of The Future Of The Child
Names Were Giving By The Prevailing Circumstances
Hence Abiram ( Hebrews Root Of Abram = My Father Is Exalted / Father Of Heights Ie He Who Is Highly Set Up / Lofty One
But In Genesis 17 : 5 - 8, God Changed The Name Abram To Abraham = Father Of Many Nations At The Time He Had No Child.
God ( By His Spirit ) Gave Abraham A New Identity/ A New Image Per What He Wants To Accomplish.
This One Abraham's Parents Could Not Do But God Did
Application:
In Christ Our Names Have Been Changed
2 Corinthians 5: 17 = You Are A New Creation
Colossians 2: 10 = You Are Complete In Him
1 Peter 2 : 9 = You Are A Royal Priesthood/ A Holy Nation / A People Belonging To God
Live By Your New Identity In Christ
( 2 ). Joseph = From Prinsoner To Prime Minister = Genesis 41: 37 - 49
( 3 ). Moses = From A Stammerer To An Eloquent Leader = Exodus 4: 10 – 14
( 4 ). Hannah = From A Childless Woman To A Mother Of 6 Or 7 = 1 Samuel 2: 5 & 21
( 5 ). Peter = From A Fearful Disciple To A Fearless Defender Of The Gospel Of Christ = Acts 4
From Simon To Cephas / Peter ( John 1: 42 , Acts 15 : 14, 2 Peter 1: 1 ) To Peter ( Hebrew/
Greek To Aramaic )
( 6 ).Saul / Paul = From A Persecuter To A Preacher / From A Murderer To A Missionary = Acts 9
The Three Things That Satan Dreads So About The Believer In Christ For Which The Holy Spirit Has Been Sent To Teach Us And Confirm To Us
1. He Dread Us Having Knowledge Of What Christ Has Accomplished For Us On The Cross Ie Not Just As Knowing It In Our Head But We Really And Daily Living It ( Living In Daily Awareness )
2. He Dread Us Knowing Who We Are In Christ ( Our New Position In Christ ) = Ephesians 2: 6 / Philippians 3: 20
We Are Here On Earth In That Family/ Office/ Tribe / Community To
Represent Heaven / God
As Channels Of God/ The Holy Spirit
As Gatekeepers = Blocking Evil And Allowing Good Ie No Evil Or Wickedness Can Thrive In Your Presence
As Level Changers
3 . He Dreads What We Have Inherited In Christ = Romans 8 : 14 - 17
o Note : For All The Above, It Is The Duty Of The Holy Spirit To Make Us To Know. For That Is Why He Was Sent To Teach You = John 14: 26
4 . Application:
In Genesis 3 This Was The Trick He Played On Adam
Who Was Already Carrying The Image/ Identity Of God But Did Not Know V 5 If Adam Had Replied Satan, I Am Already The God Over Creation Satan Would Have Backed Off
V 22 God Wanted Adam To Reach Here Through The Process
Note This Is The Strong Point In Occultism, That The Serpent Made Them To Become Like God ( That The Serpent Opened Their Eyes ) Which Is Falls. Rather The Serpent Opened Their Eyes To A Counterfeit Spirit/ Personality/ Power And World That Will Them In Eternal Damnatiom.
B. We Must Desire Fresh Filling Of The Holy To Those Who Already Have
But The Baptism To Those Who Have Not Received
Note: Both Baptism And Fresh Filling For:
Effective Christian Lives
A Fruitful Christian Lives
A Life And Ministry With Tangible Results
C. Both Fresh Infilling And Baptism To Change Levels And End Eras
