Yes.

How many are excited and happy that the Holy Spirit lives inside of you? [audience applauding] I know it's, it's Sunday morning.

Some of you haven't had your coffee, and you got a Colombian screaming at you from the start.

Uh, but, but th- this, I, I, I, I m- I mean to, to shock you today a little bit.

I, I, I mean to shock you into this revelation that if the Holy Spirit does live inside of you...

We, we've talked about this before, how, you know, Holy Spirit is God's gift to us as Christians.

Jesus said, "It is to your benefit that I leave, that I might send the Comforter, the Paraclete, to you." He, He's our helper.

Life.

So the word of God says in Romans 8

verse 14.

Actually the whole chapter of Romans 8 is a powerful chapter.

Where it talks about being led by the spirit.

Romans 8 verse 2 actually talks about the spirit, the law of the spirit of life.

And if we abide by that, we would have life.

And we would avoid the law of death.

And I feel the

[laughs]

And so he's like, "Listen, the only thing I can think of is there, there's a humanitarian flight that flies out once a month, and you might, you might have, uh, wanna look into it." He says, "The only thing is it takes like six months to get in, uh, get on the list for that humanitarian flight.

And it usually le- this is a Tuesday, and it leaves on a Friday." So he's like, "I mean, maybe you could send like, you know, the youngest kids, a- and then you guys can just figure out what to do and stuff." So I'm like, "All right." A- and so anyway, so I'm like, "Okay." So we go back, and then we start preaching.

You know, some pe- some people start getting saved.

It's pretty cool.

Uh, and then, uh, there's this pilot walks by, and so he's listening to the message.

And so he, you know, he just feels the anointing.

Come on.

That they may know you.

"Who?" The, the only true God, "and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent." It, it's such an important thing to know Him.

Uh, look, look at what the Word of God says in Jeremiah 9:23-24.

It says, "This is what the Lord says: 'Let no wise man boast of his wisdom, nor let the mighty man boast of his might, nor a rich man boast of his riches, but let the one who boasts boast of this, that he understands and knows me.'" So it says if you're gonna boast about something, it's not about the education that you have.

It's not about how prosperous you can be.

It's not about, you know, uh, uh, h- how good of a businessperson you are.

And not that there's anything bad with those things, but the Word of God is telling us the one thing that you should pursue is knowing Him, because out of a knowledge of knowing Him, then there is correct action that takes place in your life that God blesses.
