Experiencing the Spirit: The Power of Pentecost Every Day QUOTES

1 " Will God ever ask you to do something you are not able to do? The answer is yes--all the time! It must be that way, for God's glory and kingdom. If we function according to our ability alone, we get the glory; if we function according to the power of the Spirit within us, God gets the glory. He wants to reveal Himself to a watching world. "

― Henry T. Blackaby , Experiencing the Spirit: The Power of Pentecost Every Day

2 " But if you find yourself experiencing a desire to seek God, we have great news for you: God is already at work in you. "

― Henry T. Blackaby , Experiencing the Spirit: The Power of Pentecost Every Day

3 " Whether you see Him at work is irrelevant to the fact of God's presence in our world. He is actively and intimately involved in both the affairs of this world and the details of your life. "

― Henry T. Blackaby , Experiencing the Spirit: The Power of Pentecost Every Day

4 " So the role of the Holy Spirit is not to bring God's presence to the world, but to reveal it. "

5 " Listen carefully: Recognizing God is not the same as coming to Him. Hearing God in your heart is not the same as answering. Working for the kingdom of God does not mean living in the kingdom of God. Christianity is not believing the truths of the Bible; it's acting upon them and allowing God control of your life. You must respond to God and make the choice to interact personally with Him. "

6 " When our faith is based primarily on the wisdom of men and not on the power of God, we've just nullified most of what God intended for our lives. When our faith is built only on a collection of doctrines, we miss out on the Person who wants to be our life. "

― Henry T. Blackaby , Experiencing the Spirit: The Power of Pentecost Every Day

7 " There comes a point in your life when the Lord opens your eyes to understand what the Christian life was meant to be. It isn't just going to heaven when you die; it's dying to self on earth and allowing Him to live through you. "

― Henry T. Blackaby , Experiencing the Spirit: The Power of Pentecost Every Day

8 " Divine truth is not something we “discover;” it is revealed by the Holy Spirit of God. As such, no other reality in the Christian life is as important as being filled with the Spirit. "

― Henry T. Blackaby , Experiencing the Spirit: The Power of Pentecost Every Day

9 " Have you gone beyond accepting the fact that there's a God? Have you moved beyond accepting Christ as God's Son and made Him Lord of your life? If you believe there's a God, that He sent His Son to die for you, that God raised Jesus from the dead after three days, and that Christ is coming back for His disciples—that's great. But Satan also believes all that! What makes your life any different from Satan's? To be different, you must come to Christ, pursue Him, give your life to Him, and keep growing in your relationship with Him—-for He's a Person to be loved, not an idea to be accepted. "
