I have a question for you. Have you received the Holy Spirit? Do you walk in the Spirit
And most importantly, do you normally have communion with the Holy Spirit
I want to share a vision that I had recently that really took me aback concerning the power
of the Holy Spirit and concerning the person of the Holy Spirit. Before I share this vision
and what I saw, I want us to remember that God is a Spirit and is a Spirit that exists in three
persons. The person of God the Father, the person of God the Son, and the person of the Holy Spirit
Now, the three are in agreement that they make one. They are in total agreement and this Trinity
is what we call God. Now, they are in agreement that when God speaks in the Bible, in the Old
Testament, he is talking about Jesus Christ and most of the stories and most of the encounters
we read in the Old Testament, this is Christ concealed. When Jesus is born and walks on this
earth, he is given the authority. However, he does not glorify himself, but he glorifies the Father
It's because what the Father speaks is what the Son is speaking. They are speaking the same
language. And when God speaks of Jesus, he says, this is my only Son. This is my only beloved Son
When Jesus speaks, he says, what I do is what I say my Father do. If I ask my Father, he will do
If I pray to my Father, he will do. Thank you, my Father, because you have given me these people
Thank you because you listen to me. He glorifies God the Father, even though he is God himself
Now, when Jesus is about to leave this earth and ascend into heaven, he gives a statement
and this is what he says, that I must go for the Son to be glorified
He does not glorify himself, but he says he must go and he will send us a helper
in the name of the Holy Spirit. And then he says the Holy Spirit will lead us in all
things, in all truth. So when the Holy Spirit comes, this is what Jesus says, that the Holy
Spirit now glorifies the Son. So we see that God the Father is glorifying the Son. God the Son is
glorifying the Father. And the Holy Spirit is glorifying the Son, who is Jesus Christ
Now we have been given a helper who leads us in all things, in all truth. And he also
tells us more. He gives us the revelation. He teaches about Christ. And he guides us in every
day activity, in every thoughtful activity, in everything we do on this earth. We are
with a helper who is called the Holy Spirit. So I'm asking you a question. Do you have the helper
or you do everything on your own way? Have you invited the Holy Spirit into your heart
Now this is the vision that I saw concerning the Holy Spirit. I was taken in a vision at night
and I was taken in a setting that was a church. And I could see what was happening in the church
People were in the church praising and worshiping God. But there was this man who was outside the
church. He was just in the compound, but not in the building. He could not enter the building
and I could feel and see his desire to enter the building, to enter, to join the congregant
But he could not because of two reasons. One, the church was full. There was no space for him
And the second reason was, no one was inviting him. No one was inviting him. He was like a stranger
in Jerusalem. No one was inviting this person. And I could feel, I was placed in a position such that
I could feel the desire of this man. I could feel how much with passion, with zeal, he wanted to
join the congregant, but he just needed someone to invite him to join the congregants. But there was
nobody. Everyone was busy. Everyone didn't have a room to accommodate him. No one was coming to
welcome him, and no one was speaking to him. So as I pondered on this, I felt the heavy burden on me
and I knew that is exactly how this person was feeling. And I was wondering, why is no one
inviting him? Why is he stranded outside? And why is the church, why are they not even aware that
there is a visitor who is outside, and he wants to join them? And in that moment, I woke up
and I really was disturbed. So I started to ponder on what the vision was about
And the presence of God came on me heavily at that moment, and started to reveal to me that
the person you saw was the person of the Holy Spirit. Now this person of the Holy Spirit
desires to have a communion with the congregants, with the Christians, but no one is inviting him
I was also made to understand that in that church, there are so many believers
and some of them have received the gift of the Holy Spirit. However, they were not friends
with the Holy Spirit. They speak in tongues. They pray in tongues. They pray for hours
but they are not friends with the Holy Spirit. Now the Holy Spirit is a friend, as the Bible
tells us, as the Bible explains to us. He is a friend that you need to walk with. If you are a
friend to a person, you always obey him, you listen to him. But the revelation of this message
was that so many Christians are not sensitive to the person of the Holy Spirit, and thus the Holy
Spirit is not effective in them. They invited him, but he is in him resting. Remember when you got
saved, you received the Holy Spirit. And from that day, you are supposed to walk in spirit
You are supposed to have a communion with the Holy Spirit in all the walk of your life. However
so many of us forget that there is a helper who is already inside us, and that is God
in the person of the Holy Spirit. That's why so many people don't get the revelation of the
Word of God, because they have not asked the Holy Spirit to reveal to them. They have not
convicted, they have not consulted the Holy Spirit. And even if the Holy Spirit gives them direction
most believers ignore the direction of the Holy Spirit, and they do it their own way
So I'm asking you a question today. Are you walking under the conviction of the Holy Spirit
or are you doing everything, or are you carrying out your life the way you want
Now, this is what he made me to understand, that it is like someone who has married a wife
but this guy who has married a wife, he's busy washing his utensils, he's busy ironing
he's doing his clothing, washing them, he's busy mopping and cleaning the house
and doing all the errands, and cooking, and doing all the things. The wife is supposed to help him
because the wife is a helper. And the wife is sitting there wondering
why is he concerned, and why does he do all these things while I'm here? Why can't he allow me
to help him? It is the perfect scenario that most Christians are in with the Holy Spirit
They have the helper, but they are not letting the helper help them
Now, this is a challenge to all of us. The Bible tells us the Holy Spirit is a helper
he's a comforter. He reveals to us about the person of the Son, with Jesus Christ
He gives us direction, he comforts us. So, who comforts you? Who gives you direction
When you pray, do you normally have a communion with the Holy Spirit? You can't be a friend
with the Holy Spirit when you don't have a communion with Him, when you don't talk to Him
So, this is the message. You have the Holy Spirit. Talk to Him. You have the Holy Spirit
within you. The day you are born, the day the Holy Spirit came upon you, you received a helper
you received a friend, you received a companion. You are supposed to involve this companion
You're supposed to talk to this friend. That's the same way you normally have a very close
relationship with your friend. Have the same relationship with the Holy Spirit who is in you
When you do that, you will receive the revelation, you will receive, you will be guided in life
and consult the Holy Spirit each and every time you want to do anything. When you are praying
and trusting God for anything, have you talked to the Holy Spirit? And if you have talked to the
Holy Spirit, have you listened to His voice? Because when you talk to the Holy Spirit
He will definitely speak to you. Now, this is a secret that I learned, but I learned late in my
journey of salvation, that the person of the Holy Spirit will always talk to you, will always convict
you. But it is one thing for Him to convict you and it is another thing for you to obey
So, I challenge you believers, receive the power of the Holy Spirit. And if you have received the
power of the Holy Spirit, let Him be your friend. Talk to Him. Start a journey of talking to Him
When I realized this secret, I began a journey of speaking to the Holy Spirit. I began a journey of
talking to the Holy Spirit. And each morning when I would wake up, I would also greet the
Holy Spirit. How are you my friend? Good morning Holy Spirit. Talk to Him. Listen to Him
Now, there's another thing that we as Christians do or believers do, that's
grieve the Holy Spirit. When you receive the Holy Spirit, it is important that you walk
in righteousness. So when you walk in sin, you grieve the Holy Spirit
You grieve the Holy Spirit. You make Him mourn. You make Him sad. And it is the agenda of the
enemy to grieve the Holy Spirit in each and every place, even in high places, so that the Holy
Spirit can leave the surface of the earth. Now, remember it is the Holy Spirit that we have today
and the grace that we have today that we can receive salvation. And the enemy is working so
hard that the Holy Spirit should leave the earth, the surface of the earth. But so many believers
are grieving the Holy Spirit, are hurting the Holy Spirit, not realizing that God does not associate
with sin. Because the Holy Spirit in you is God. That is the Spirit of God. And He is with you each
and every time. So when you are walking in the Holy Spirit, it is important you walk away from
anything that will grieve the Holy Spirit that is in you. You walk in holiness. You walk in
righteousness. It is a journey you do each and every day. If you have sinned and you are falling
apart, ask God for forgiveness and surely He is gracious enough to forgive you. For the Bible says
in 1 John 4 chapter 4, greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world. Now, do you know that
you have a helper who is greater than the enemy that is in the world? And that helper is the Holy Spirit
He is greater. He is God. He is working with you each and every day. But you are not having any communion with Him
You are not friends with Him. When He revealed to me this, I was in tears. There are so many
Christians in churches who are saved. Now remember this person didn't look like Christ because these
people were saved. This was not Christ who wanted to enter into their lives. They had received Christ
This was not Christ who wanted to come into their lives. No, this was the Holy Spirit
whom Christ sent that they should receive, that should help us. But so many Christians are in
church speaking even in tongues but they are not friends with the Holy Spirit. These words
He revealed to me boldly. Many Christians are in church but they're not effective in the word of God
because they are not working with the Holy Spirit. He is lying in them, idle. He is in them
but He is idle because they don't consult Him. Remember God will never force Himself on you
He wants you to invite Him. He wants you to work with Him. He wants you to talk to Him. He wants
you to have a communion and fellowship with Him. So do you have a fellowship with God
Now if you don't have a fellowship with the Holy Spirit, then you don't have a fellowship with God
If you are not a friend of the Holy Spirit, then you're not a friend of God. So let this
be a challenge to each and every one of us that we should start working in the power
of the Holy Spirit that Christ sent us, that God the Father sent us, that we may walk in victory
that we may be empowered and walk in authority, in power and authority. Until next time
