    This is the third sermon in a series of four on The Holy Spirit from John 14:26 emphasizing the promise of the Holy Spirit as the way one is to live the Christian life.

    What is a promise?

    God’s message to the people of Israel reminds us of the need to rely upon His Spirit in the work we are doing today. We need to pray, trust Him and offer what little we have. Success is assured, not by human efforts but by the power of His Spirit.

    Zech 4:6 “Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,” says the LORD Almighty. The will of God will never lead to where the grace of God cannot keep you. • When He calls us to do a task, He will give us the strength to do it. • When He calls us to move, He will show us the way. • Whatever God ...read more
