Pastor Vlad finished the Encounter series with moving message about the “Benefits of the Intimacy with the Holy Spirit” If you enjoyed this message, please share it on your social media pages.

Message Notes:

All Christians have relationship with the Holy Spirit but not all Christians have intimacy with Him. Relationship comes by salvation. Intimacy comes by surrender.In order to walk in the Holy Spirit we must talk with the Holy Spirit

1 Samuel 11:6-7; 12-13

1. You will attack the enemy instead of agreeing with the enemy! Under the anointing of Holy Spirit, Saul did not make a covenant with the enemy; without the anointing he agreed to terms of Goliath.

Don’t make agreements with the devil, you were anointed to attack! Whatever you agree with you empower! Don’t identify yourself with your pain, past, sin or sickness! You are in Christ.

2. You will be courageous instead of coward. With Holy Spirit boldness was released into Saul; without the anointing, Saul was balanced, cautious and played safe.

Intimacy leads to risk - risk leads to reward. Intimacy is the key to boldness. Boldness is the key to miracles.

Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were uneducated and untrained men, they marveled. And they realized that they had been with Jesus. Acts 4:13

3. You will serve people instead of fearing them. When Holy Spirit came upon Saul, fear of God came upon people. When Holy Spirit left Saul, fear of people came upon Saul.

When we please people we will disobey God. If people are the reason why you love them that love will diminish. If God is the reason why you love people that love will grow.

4. You will fight along side of authority instead of always being frustrated with them. When Holy Spirit came upon Saul he went to war with Samuel; without the Holy Spirit him and Samuel had constant frictions.

You can’t walk in anointing and fight authority. If authority is not honorable, honor them still because you are honoring.

5. You will have mercy on your foes instead of attacking your friends. When Holy Spirit was with Saul he spared his enemies; when Spirit of God left, he sought to kill his friends.

Only the Holy Spirit helps you to NOT REACT to people but PAUSE AND RESPOND to God.

6. You will be mission minded, instead of ambition driven. When Holy Spirit came upon Saul, he wanted to save the city. When the Holy Spirit left Saul he wanted save his title.

Without Holy Spirit you obsess with titles, positions, and ranks. With Holy Spirit you care about your calling, purpose and mission.
