Why we need to be filled with the Spirit - Acts 4

I once travelled to a place where there's not enough power for everyone. They do rotating power outages every day but never at the same time of day. If the power is on, you charge your phone or computer, you run your dishwasher and hope it doesn't stop mid cycle. I've also lived in houses where there's not enough power coming to the house. The lights go dim, the fan slows down. We have the same thing in our lives, only it's not fans or lights that dim. It's way more serious. We know what's asked of us and what we're being called to do but we don't have what it takes. How do we handle that? Today I will talk about why we need to be filled with the Spirit. The Bible says that everyone who trusts is given forgiveness of sins and the gift of the Holy Spirit. Why is it then that we who have the Spirit need also to be filled with the Spirit? We'll talk out of Acts 4 and at the end spend time in prayer asking God to fill us with his Spirit. Preacher: Bill Dyck Extra reading: Ezekiel 36:22-28
