You shall receive power
Acts 1:8 Amplified Bible (AMP) – But you will receive power and ability when the Holy Spirit comes upon you; … and you will be My witnesses …
Power and ability over here simply mean, having the can-do capacity or being able to do what your natural man cannot do.
This was Jesus Himself talking after His resurrection, that we shall receive power after the Holy Ghost has come upon you, has the Holy Ghost come upon you?
The power giver here is the Sweet Precious Holy Spirit, God needed Him for the creation and Jesus Himself needed Him when He walked the earth. There is no way we cannot do without Him. The power is in Him, the Holy Ghost.
… And you will be My witnesses, a witness is simply a witness, someone who would say or do something on behalf of someone – that is what Jesus needs us to do, are we witnesses?
We are going to take some few weeks or months to learn about the Holy Ghost, stay tuned!
Prayer
In the Precious Name of Jesus, I thank You for Your Precious Holy Spirit for my empowerment, I pray that I receive Him afresh even with His power to be able to be witnesses unto you Lord, thank you!
