Message: Thy Kingdom Come ~ Part VI Kingdom Believers Acts 1 & 2 ~ The Power of the Holy Spirit
In review, the Qualities of Kingdom Believers:
The Power of the Holy Spirit was present in Jesus life
And Jesus full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and as led by the Spirit in the wilderness...And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit to Galilee, and he taught in their synagogues being glorified by all… and they were all amazed and said to one another, “What is this word? For with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits, and they come out!” Luke 4:1,14-15, 36
The Same Power of the Holy Spirit is given to All Believers
Now when the Council saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated, common men, they were astonished. And they recognized that they had been with Jesus. Acts 4:13
Jesus said, “But when the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of Truth, who precedes from the Father, he will bear witness of me, and you will bear witness of me. John 15:26-27
We can daily Access God’s Holy Spirit for Kingdom Living For the Kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking but of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. Romans 14:17
May the God of Hope fill you with all Joy and Peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope. Rom. 15:13
Jesus said, “You shall receive POWER when the Holy Spirit has come upon you and you shall be my witnesses...to the ends of the earth!” Acts 1:8
Prayer of Welcome I WELCOME the Light of the Holy Spirit into my Heart, Soul and Life, so that I may clearly see the path before me. I WELCOME the Winds of the Holy Spirit into my Heart, Soul and Life, so that I may always be led and guided by the Truth of God’s Word. I WELCOME the Presence of the Holy Spirit into my Heart, Soul and Life, so that I my always be filled with the Power of God. Amen.

Pastor David's Message: Thy Kingdom Come ~ Part V Kingdom Believers Ephesians 4
Truths about God’s Kingdom Family:
We are all ONE in Jesus. There is One body and One Spirit - just as you were called to the One hope that belongs to your call - One Lord, One faith, One Baptism, One God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all. Ephesians 4:4-6 (ESV)
Jesus prayed: “Holy Father, keep them in your name, which you have given me, that they may be ONE, even as we are ONE … I in them and you in me that they may become perfectly ONE.” John 17:11,23 (ESV)
We are Called to Maintain the Unity of the Family of God. Walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. Ephesians 4:1-3, (ESV)
We are Called to Love We may no longer be children...but rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into Him who is the Head of the Church, into Him who is the head, into Christ from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the Church grow so that it builds itself up in love. Ephesians 4:14-16 (ESV)
Jesus help His children to grow to become Church that reflects the Kingdom of God: Oneness, Unity, Love, …… our contribution to our world
