* This verse shows the picture of a true prophet.
* He wasn’t out to build his brand, but to declare God’s message whatever the cost.
* The Holy Spirit manifested Himself through power, strength, courage in the face of sure persecution.
* The Holy Spirit does not shrink back.
* It doesn’t operate in fear or selfishness.
* You can have the Holy Spirit “in” you but not “on” you.
* “In” you means He has revealed Jesus to you.
* “On” you means He is working through you to reveal Jesus to others.
* It’s like a power drill - it’s powerful but only until it’s plugged in.
* We activate the power of the Holy Spirit in our lives by the attitude of our hearts - the attitude of surrender.
* When you say, “I surrender all,” the Holy Spirit responds, “Good, now I’ll take over.”
