Pentecost Sunday

holy spirit sermon

This message was shared by Apostle Kathryn Krick Lead Pastor/ Apostle of 5F Church in Los Angeles, CA on June 8, 2025. Below is a word for word transcription of the message as if Apostle Kathryn is writing this to you. To watch the full video scroll to the bottom of this post. We pray this teaching blesses you and equips you to walk as a powerful vessel of God.  

It is Pentecost Sunday! And today I am going to talk about the Holy Spirit. I am going to share about our beautiful, powerful Holy Spirit.

Jesus, when He was with the disciples, in John 16:7, He says:

Nevertheless I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the helper will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send Him to you.

So Jesus actually says to the disciples, to the apostles: It is better that I leave you physically, even though you are able to see me and touch me, even though you are able to see me physically - it is better that I go away! Because when I go away, I will send the Holy Spirit, which is one with me. God the Father, Jesus and the Holy Spirit are one. They are three in one. So God is the Father, God is Jesus and God is the Holy Spirit. Our Lord is God, our Lord is Jesus, our Lord is the Holy Spirit. When we say Jesus, we also mean the Holy Spirit. When we say God, we mean Jesus. When we say God, we mean the Holy Spirit too. Three in one.

It really was better that Jesus went away. He could have just stayed here and we could have just seen Him once in a while because there is so many believers in the world. So we would see Him one time in a big crowd maybe, and that’s it. We would maybe not even have a one-on-one encounter. But with the Holy Spirit we can have a one-on-one relationship with God 24/7. Even when we are sleeping God is looking at us, He is with us. He is intimate with us every single second of every day. That is why Jesus says: It is better!

When you give your life to Jesus and He becomes your Lord and Savior, immediately when you make that decision, when you speak it with your mouth, the Holy Spirit enters your life. He comes and lives inside of your temple, your body. He lives inside of you. So when you have given your life to Jesus; God, the Holy Spirit lives in you right now. He has become one with you. You are one with Him. He is a part of you. That is why He is closer than any person could ever be. Because every other person is outside of you. They are not in you. Every other person, even your spouse, they got to sleep sometimes. Their eyes can’t always be on you like God’s eyes are always upon you. That’s why He says: It is better that I go and I send the helper. The Holy Spirit is the helper.

The Holy Spirit is the one who helps us be more like Jesus, be more Christlike. The Holy Spirit is the one who helps us do what God is asking us to do. The Holy Spirit helps us see in the spiritual realm, see the enemy’s schemes, reject the devil’s lies and keep our eyes on Jesus and do all that God is asking us to do. He helps us. That is our helper. He comforts us when we need comfort. He empowers us to do the things that God is asking us to do, that is hard for us, that is our weaknesses.

God is so big. He is so big that we can’t even comprehend how big He is. He created the whole universe. He is so massive. And it is important for you to know that you have not finished in receiving from the Holy Spirit. He is so big that there is so much more of Him to receive in your life.

There are several different indwellings of the Holy Spirit. When you first give your life to Jesus, the Holy Spirit immediately enters you. For me that was age four and it was my earliest memory. In the living room on the couch, my mom asking me if I wanted to give my life to Jesus. I said Yes, so I know the Holy Spirit entered me in that moment. I don’t remember any kind of tangible feeling or touch, but I know based on Scripture that the Holy Spirit entered me in that moment. Throughout my childhood, throughout my teen years I loved God. I had this love for God that I knew was different than many of my friends, than many around me. I was just drawn to God and the things of God. That was evidence that the Holy Spirit was working in my life. But when I entered Highschool, I started to put one foot in the world and started to be lukewarm for the first time in my life. That lukewarmness continued into College years. Once I moved to LA after just graduating College in 2013, as soon as I took the leap of faith and drove across the country by myself where it was just God and me and only having two acquaintances out in LA and no friends or family, I felt this hunger for God. I felt the Lord pursuing me and this hunger building in me. That hunger let me to seek God a lot once I came to LA, seek Him like never before.

And the bible says in Jeremiah 29:13

You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.

So if you seek Him, you will for sure find Him. But if you don’t seek Him, you will not find Him. WHEN you seek Him, THEN you will find Him. When you seek Him with all your heart.

So when I started seeking Him and seeking Him, I started finding more of Him and more of Him. And one day 9.5 years ago, I started hearing about the baptism of the Holy Spirit, where the Holy Spirit would come in fire like the day of Pentecost. I started hearing about that and I started desiring that. I wanted that. One day in God’s perfect timing, the week of my birthday, it was January 7th, I was so hungry for the baptism of the Holy Spirit and the Holy Spirit came upon me in fire and baptized me in fire. In that moment I experienced the tangible touch of God for the first time. I had been a believer my whole life. Since age four every memory was being a believer in Jesus. I had attended Church one to two times every single week of my life. But it wasn’t until I was baptized in the Holy Spirit that I had my first tangible touch of God, where I felt Him, I felt Him tangibly. How I felt Him first was God Himself coming upon my tongue. I started speaking in tongues. The joy and excitement I felt was the most excitement I have ever had in my life. So much that I started YELLING in tongues. People were around. I didn’t care what people thought. It was just me and God. And it was one of the best days of my life. Up to that point it was the best day of my life. That tangible touch, that encounter with the power of the Holy Spirit, opened my eyes up to the fact that God has always been with me and knows me so deeply. That He loves me so much, that He is for me, that His plans for me are good. That revelation came upon me when I had the tangible touch of the Holy Spirit upon my tongue. It is like my spiritual eyes opened up that He is SO REAL and everything I have learned about Him and believed with head knowledge, became this deep knowing in my heart. I knew that I knew that I knew. Because now I had met Jesus! Not just heard about Him and believed. But I had met Him!

In that moment with my eyes opening up to God’s love, that His love is so amazing, and that He is so majestic and all-knowing and all-powerful and perfect, with that came the fear of God. That I was the opposite of those things. That I NEEDED HIM! How could I know what was best for my life? I had plans at that point. I had plans to be a Christian Pop-EDM Singer/ Songwriter. After first coming out to LA to pursue acting, I then believed this was God’s calling for my life to be a singer. I really thought that was God’s call and I was really excited about it. But this fear of God opened up my eyes to the fact that I don’t know everything, only God does. Who am I to think I know what is best for my life?

In that moment I felt this strong desire, this was the only thing that made sense in the world, was to surrender my whole life to Jesus. So in that moment after I was baptized in the Holy Spirit, immediately on my own accord, without anyone asking me, altar call, leading me into a sinner’s prayer or something - Nope! I just said my own wedding vows to Jesus right there! I said: “Jesus, I give you everything. I give you my plans.” And I felt this desperation to say something drastic. I love being around people so I said: “Even if you want to just put me on an island by myself or something, you can do it.” I felt so compelled to say something drastic. “Whatever you want God, I give you my whole life because you know best. And I know nothing.” And, praise God, 9 months later He answered that prayer of: “Give me your dreams if they are not my dreams. You can take my dreams and give me your dreams, if my dreams are not your dreams and plans for my life.” And 9 months later is when my spiritual father Prophet Dr. GeorDavie prophesied to me that I was called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ.

And because I had encountered God with the baptism of the Holy Spirit and my eyes opened up that He knows best, I was able to then surrender and put aside my dreams of music and surrender fully and obey God in this calling of being an apostle when I didn’t want that because public speaking was my biggest fear and weakness and I had no desire to preach or minister. I just wanted to cheer on people who were getting prayed for and bring them to the church. That is what I wanted. But I was able to obey God and follow this calling that He had for my life because I was baptized in His spirit. The Holy Spirit in fire became the helper that I needed to help me surrender everything. Because for years prior to that I was going to a church in LA. For years I was even serving there, they had five services a Sunday. I would serve the entire day. I really loved God and I knew it was right to surrender everything, to not be lukewarm. But there was something holding me back from surrendering. I didn’t know why. I thought something was wrong with me. But after receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit, I realized I was simply missing the helper. The helper to help me surrender.

You know, we receive the help of the Holy Spirit when we give our lives to Jesus originally but there is a second indwelling of the Holy Spirit, when the Holy Spirit comes in fire. And the help of the fire is something different. It is something different, because the moment I was baptized in the Holy Spirit, instantly I had such a strong desire for the things of God. And I no longer had any appetite for the things of the world, the things that kept me lukewarm. It vanished the moment that the fire came upon my life. Since that day I have been surrendered and the surrender has grown. Since that day it has not been difficult to live purely and holy and stay in God’s will. It has not been this struggle with the enemy pulling me to sin and into temptation. It has not been a struggle because the fire of the Holy Spirit is such a great help. Such a great help! The fire of the Holy Spirit ignites the passion for Jesus in you more. The fire of the Holy Spirit burns away the desires of the flesh that you were battling with so much before. The fire of the Holy Spirit makes your spirit-man to rise.

With the fire of the Holy Spirit coming upon your life and continuing to fan into flame what you have received, you constantly can be like Jesus. I mean, you don’t have to have a day where you are so full of the flesh. You can constantly walk by the spirit and live godly. WHEN you are open to receiving the help that comes with the fire of the Holy Spirit. And you value the helper of the fire of the Holy Spirit so you keep fanning into flame that gift that you received.

As it says in 2. Timothy 1:6

Paul says: I am writing to encourage you to fan into flame and rekindle the fire of the spiritual gift God imparted to you when I laid my hands upon you.

There is two things that many Christians are missing that are keeping them from living a godly life:

  1. They are missing the fire of the Holy Spirit to help them. To set them on fire.
  2. Many are oppressed with demons.

For me, I wasn’t oppressed with a demon, it was just that I needed the helper of the fire of the Holy Spirit. But for others, they need the helper, the fire of the Holy Spirit, but also there is oppression in their life that only can be destroyed by the anointing.

Isaiah 10:27 says:

The yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.

The anointing is the power of God. It is the Holy Spirit, but specifically the Holy Spirit coming in power for the purposes to heal, deliver and do miracles and speak prophetically. It is for ministry.

The helper, the fire of the Holy Spirit, the baptism of the Holy Spirit is for your spiritual life. It is for your spiritual health, personally you.

As it says in 1. Corinthians 14:4:

Anyone who speaks in a tongue edifies themselves, but the one who prophesies edifies the church.

Speaking in tongues comes from the baptism of the Holy Spirit. The second indwelling of the Holy Spirit. It is for your personal spiritual life.

But there is a third indwelling of the Holy Spirit that God wants every believer to have as well. And that is the anointing. But the anointing is not for yourself. It is for others. It is for ministry. When we say “the anointing”, we mean the Holy Spirit. But we mean specifically the Holy Spirit moving in power to heal, deliver, do miracles; the Holy Spirit moving in power in a vessel whom He has anointed, who He has trusted, He is put in the vessel, and as the vessel walks in their authority in Christ, lays hands on the sick, commands demons to go, commands sickness to go, speaks prophetically, that measure of the Holy Spirit, the anointing, moves through the vessel and touches people.

A lot of people say: “Everybody has the anointing!” But they don’t understand the Holy Spirit, the measures of the Holy Spirit, that there is MORE. Not everyone has all of these indwellings of the Holy Spirit. Because in order to find God in His fullness, you have to seek Him with all your heart. 

When I was baptized in the Holy Spirit I came to a place where I didn’t care what people thought about me. I wanted to speak in tongues. I didn’t care if I looked like a fool. I just wanted more of God. I wanted more of God than anything else. And when that was in my heart, God saw that and that is when the fire of the Holy Spirit came. He sees your heart. He sees that you are truly seeking Him. So then He will reveal more of Himself to you and fill you with more. He will always! This baptism of the Holy Spirit is for every one of you! The speaking of tongues is for every one of you. It is a tool that edifies your spirit-man, that God wants for everybody. And you shall receive this today, if you have never received it before! It is time to receive more of the Holy Spirit today, hallelujah!

Acts 2:1-4

When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them.

All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit, all of them began to speak in tongues; all of those believers, those first believers, that became the first church from this day. So see, this is for every believer.

You have to desire the gifts, you have to desire the more of God in order to receive them. You have to believe, you have to have faith.

Acts 8:14-17

When the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had accepted the word of God, they sent Peter and John to Samaria. When they arrived, they prayed for the new believers there that they might receive the Holy Spirit, because the Holy Spirit had not yet come on any of them; they had simply been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Then Peter and John placed their hands on them and they received the Holy Spirit.

What this is speaking of is the baptism of the Holy Spirit. Because these people had become believers, they had been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. So they did have a measure of the Holy Spirit, but the Holy Spirit had not yet come on them, upon them IN FIRE.

This is where it shares that it is a second indwelling. Many people don’t know about the baptism of the Holy Spirit. I didn’t know about it until about ten years ago. And I was a Christian my whole life and I was open. I did not know that there was this precious gift of the Holy Spirit that I desperately needed if I wanted to live in God’s will and be surrendered. It is time that eyes open up. Because Jesus doesn’t want people to be bound in a life of lukewarm. And we don’t need to be shaming people either for living lukewarm. Many people just need the helper, they need the fire, like me.

The baptism of the Holy Spirit comes scripturally, mainly, in two ways. Either by the laying on of hands of anointed servants of God or when an anointed servant of God is peaching, is ministering, the Holy Spirit can just start to fall when He wants. People can start to be baptized in the Holy Spirit right there. Just like demons go in the middle of the service sometimes. Holy Spirit is in control and He does what He wants.

Acts 8:17

Then Peter and John placed their hands on them and they received the Holy Spirit. 

Acts 10:44-47

Even as Peter was saying these things, the Holy Spirit fell upon all who were listening to the message. The Jewish believers who came with Peter were amazed that the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out on the Gentiles, too. For they heard them speaking in other tongues and praising God. 

So here is where it shows in the bible how the baptism of the Holy Spirit comes. These are our examples of people being baptized in the Holy Spirit: the laying on of hands or during the preaching of a message. But God is not confined to a box, He can move any way he wants. So there are other people that, in their room crying out to God, the Holy Spirit just comes upon them. Actually we have a testimony: Marissa shared how she was reading my book “Unlock your Deliverance” and during Chapter ten, while she was listening to the audio book, she started speaking in tongues for the first time. Praise God!

Sometimes it can come without a servant of God praying or preaching, but it is more rare.

When we see in the bible these examples, like this is how the Holy Spirit came or this is how miracles happened, that is how we can know this is God’s main way of moving. These are His principles of how to receive from Him.

Like how to receive miracles: We see every example when we read in the gospels and when we read in the book of Acts, whether it was Jesus ministering, or the Holy Spirit moving through the apostles and 5-fold ministers - every example of a miracle taking place, of signs, wonders, of healings, of demons being cast out; every time it was when people positioned themselves where the power of God was moving through an anointed vessel. Because this is God’s main way of moving, putting His anointing in a vessel, the vessel walking in their authority in Christ, releasing the anointing and the anointing coming upon the people. It doesn’t mean that God can’t do a miracle outside of the vessel of God, outside of the church, outside of the online ministry. He does it other ways too but this is His main way and we know that because in the bible every example it gives is through a vessel. So that is how we know God’s principles, God’s main way of releasing the baptism of the Holy Spirit, healing, deliverance.

When you receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit and you have the gift of tongues now, when you pray you are speaking a holy language. You are speaking a language that God understands. You are speaking directly to God. The devil can’t hear it. God wants you to have this gift so sometimes you pray in the spirit. You pray God’s will. Maybe your feelings are strong, they are influenced by the enemy. This is a time God wants you to pray in the spirit because it is going to be God’s will. Sometimes you may not know God’s will or your feelings are so influenced by the enemy and you could pray something that is not God’s will.

  1. Corinthians 14:5

I will pray with the spirit [by the Holy Spirit that is within me] and I will pray with the mind [using words I understand].

That is clearly speaking about: I will pray in tongues, what I don’t understand, but I will also pray with understanding, with words.

I will sing with the spirit,

you can sing in tongues as well,

and I will sing with the mind [using words that I understand]. 

So once you have received this, and some of you are going to receive the gift of tongues for the first time today, this is a gift and a tool that God has given you to fan into flame your spirit-man. To help you become more spiritual, less carnal. It is a gift He has given you. Cherish this gift. Value this gift. Don’t forget about it.

And just as we pray with understanding with discipline, not just when we feel like it, you should pray in the spirit with discipline too, not just when you feel like it. When the Holy Spirit first comes upon you in fire, God overtakes your tongue. But I know I have a question from one of you. I had heard this question, so I want to answer this now. Someone had asked one time: “The fire of the Holy Spirit came upon me, I started speaking in tongues, God overtook my tongue, but now do I need to wait for Him to overtake my tongue or do I just have it now?” - You have it now! It is a language you have! So I can decide right now, I am going to speak in tongues right now. I just start speaking and it starts coming out. But you make that intention. It is a part of faith as well. Everything we do for God is based on faith. Not on the feelings. Not sitting and waiting to feel a certain way or for God to just do something. This is a gift and tool God has given you for you to use.

Acts 2:5

Now there were staying in Jerusalem God-fearing Jews from every nation under heaven.

So this is right after the Holy Spirit came on the day of Pentecost.

When they heard this sound,

the fire, the wind, the rushing wind that came,

a crowd came together in bewilderment, because each one heard their own language being spoken. Utterly amazed they asked: “Aren’t all who are speaking Galileans? Then how is it that each us of hears them in our native language? Parthians, Medes and Elamites; residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya near Cyrene; visitors from Rome (both Jews and converts to Judaism); Cretans and Arabs - we hear them declaring the wonders of God in our own tongues!” Amazed and perplexed they asked one another: “What does this mean?” 

So this means that these people, it was a sign for them, it was supernatural and it woke them up. God was shaking them up. Waking them up. Lifting their eyes to see a wonder to lead them to Him. So He used this unique, beautiful, powerful move of the Holy Spirit through tongues to lead people to Jesus.

This was most of the people. They were amazed and perplexed. “What does this mean?”

Some, however, made fun of them and said: “They have had too much wine.”

There is a message that God has for you today. And that is:

If you want more of Him, you have to be unashamed of Him! 

He wants to give you so much more but you have to actually desire Him. You have to be okay with being misunderstood, mocked, and falsely accused. These things took place when the Holy Spirit came in fire and made the the people to speak in tongues. 

You can speak in tongues like this (Apostle speaking in tongues more calmly, quietly), or you can be like me when I first received the baptism of the Holy Spirit (yelling and speaking in tongues passionately). I’m thinking that it was the second way since it says they were being accused of drinking too much wine on the day of Pentecost. I’m sure they were LAUGHING with the joy of the Holy Spirit! They could have been rolling on the ground with laughter. 

Sometimes the Holy Spirit does that. He is full of joy. Joy. Not happiness of this world, joy. And so, sometimes the Holy Spirit will come so powerfully with JOY, that you CANNOT contain that joy. You will laugh your head off. You will roll on the ground. And some people would think you had too much wine. 

We have to be okay with the Holy Spirit’s manifestations if we want to receive more of Him. A lot of people are missing out on the more of God because they are afraid of being misunderstood, mocked, and falsely accused. 

Romans 1:16 

For I am not ashamed of this Good News about Christ. It is the power of God at work, saving everyone who believes—the Jew first and also the Gentile.

The Good News of Jesus Christ is the POWER of God at work! The Good News of Jesus Christ is not just the name of Jesus. It’s not just the speaking about Jesus. The Good News of Jesus Christ is actually the POWER of God at work. The power of God at work is what actually saves everyone. EVERYONE. It’s what brings the actual salvation. 

I needed the power of God at work. I needed the baptism of the Holy Spirit to bring me out of being lukewarm and lost and into God’s will and on the narrow road. I needed the power of God at work. Every believer needs the power of God at work. 

There are many people who love Jesus, but don’t want and are ashamed of the Holy Spirit. 

Jesus and the Holy Spirit are one. You can’t love Jesus and hate the Holy Spirit. If you’re hating the Holy Spirit, you’re also hating Jesus. If you’re ashamed of the Holy Spirit, you’re also ashamed of Jesus. 

The Holy Spirit moves, the power of God at work which the scripture says, is in so many different ways. It’s not just the speaking in tongues. It’s not just the joy of the Lord. 

1 Corinthians 12:4-11

There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord. 

‭Not all ministries look the same! 

And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all. But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all: for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit, to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills.

In order to be embracing of the Holy Spirit and being unashamed of the Holy Spirit, we have to accept ALL of Holy Spirit. All of the different ways that He moves. All of the different gifts. ALL OF THE NEW WAYS that He is moving! God is a God who does a new thing! He’s not confined to a box. 

In this revival that He has brought, He is moving in new ways. Not according to the Bible, not according to the books of Acts, but according to todays time in the Christian culture and Christian history of recent decades. He’s doing a new thing. 

Many people have not seen the Holy Spirit move through Apostles and move through Prophets, but this is what God IS DOING. It is the Holy Spirit who moved through Jesus. The work that is the Spirit of God that moved through Jesus.

It was the Spirit of God that moved through Samuel to anoint David, to prophesy, “This is the anointed servant of God that God has chosen, King!” It was the Spirit of God that spoke through Moses. It was the Spirit of God that moved and did signs and wonders to deliver God’s people, THROUGH Moses, through a prophet. It was the Spirit of God that moved through all of these generals of faith from the Old Testament to the New Testament. It was the Spirit of God that moved through all of the Apostles, all of the five-fold ministers in the book of Acts. It was the SAME spirit. The same spirit who is now REVIVING His church, restoring what has been lost. It is the same Spirit of God who is raising up Apostles and Prophets and is moving by His spirit just as He did through Apostles in the book of Acts. He is moving through Apostles today, moving in signs and wonders, casting out demons, healing the sick, releasing impartation of anointing. It is the same Spirit of God moving in Prophets today! He is raising up Prophets today to prophesy, to speak His word, just as He did through the Old Testament Prophets, just as He did through the New Testament Prophets. It is the same Spirit of God that is casting demons out of people today, that was casting demons out of people in the book of Acts and through Jesus. Same spirit! But, people are saying it’s a demonic spirit. And when you do that, you’re grieving, even sometimes blaspheming the Holy Spirit. 

This is Jesus! You can’t pick parts of Jesus that are comfortable, parts of Jesus that people tolerate better. Parts of Jesus that won’t get you in trouble with Pharisees. Parts of Jesus that if you just talk about these parts of Jesus or associate with people who only share these parts of Jesus, then no Pharisees will come and attack you. You’re being ashamed of the Holy Spirit which is being ashamed of Jesus if you’re doing that. 

God is calling all of His people now to love and embrace and accept EVERY aspect of Him, every aspect of His spirit. 

Just as people misunderstood, mocked, and falsely accused the first believers for speaking in tongues and being full of the Holy Spirit, the same thing happens today. The same thing will happen today when the Holy Spirit moves through you through prophesy, when the Holy Spirit moves through you to cast out a demon, when the Holy Spirit moves through you speaking in tongues, full of the joy of the Lord. The same thing will happen today. We have to be okay with it. We have to accept it. We have to love Jesus more than peoples opinions. Amen? Hallelujah. 

There’s nothing more precious than having all of the Holy Spirit that He wants to be in your life, all that He wants to give you, all the giftings, the fullness, the peace, the joy, His word, revelation from Him, anointing. There’s nothing more precious than the Holy Spirit, than all of the indwellings, the fullness of the Holy Spirit that He wants to give you. There’s nothing more precious. 

God is asking you to decide once and for all, to choose the Holy Spirit. To be completely unashamed of Him so He can then pour more of Himself upon you. There’s so much more. There’s so many more gifts of the Holy Spirit He wants to give you. 

There’s many of you, there’s ministers, there’s leaders, that God wants use in power to heal and cast out demons but you can’t be ashamed of the Holy Spirit. You can’t be afraid of what people will think when the Holy Spirit starts to use you. God waits until you really desire Him, more than desiring approval from people. He waits. But you can have the gifts now, you could be walking in the power of God now! He waits! 

Today, on this day of Pentecost, it’s time to choose the Holy Spirit in His fullness. It’s time! There’s more He wants to release to you today, all of you. Some of you have never experienced the joy of the Lord where God overtakes you, you’re overflowing with just joy and laughter because you cared about what people think. Today, God wants to touch you with His joy. Let Him. Allow Him. Desire Him. Invite Him. 

There’s some ministers here, leaders that God wants to use you in His power to cast out demons, to heal the sick. Let Him pour out this impartation upon you. Know what it means. Know that it will bring persecution but you are BLESSED when you are persecuted. It’s worth it. It’s part of carrying our cross. Say yes Jesus, I’m unashamed to stand with you! I will be persecuted. Pour out your anointing on me, I don’t care what people think! I don’t care what people say! I don’t care friends that I lose! I don’t care! I just want you. I want more of you. I want your will to be done in my life. Thank you, Jesus. 

There’s some of you that never received the gift of tongues because you were in your head so much, you were thinking about what other people thought. Today, let it be just you and Jesus, you and the Holy Spirit. May you tune out everybody and it just be you. 

This is what God wants, for every single one of you to receive more of Him today. MORE! Anybody need more of Holy Spirit? Anybody want more of the Holy Spirit? 

It’s time. It’s time to receive more. Hallelujah! Thank you, Jesus. 

Romans 1:16

For I am not ashamed of this Good News about Christ. It is the power of God at work, saving everyone who believes—the Jew first and also the Gentile.

Will you stand with me and say I am unashamed!?

Repeat after me Declaration

I am unashamed of however the Holy Spirit wants to move. I am unashamed of His Apostles, how He moves through His Apostles. I am unashamed of His prophets. How His Spirit moves through His prophets. I am unashamed of the anointing that casts out demons, where demons shriek. I am unashamed to be in the house of God, where demons manifest. It is beautiful. You are beautiful, Holy Spirit. Hallelujah.

I am unashamed of the Holy Spirit who comes in fire, who brings a holy laughter, who sometimes makes people to fall down. I am unashamed of every kind of manifestation that the Holy Spirit brings. I want more of you, Holy Spirit. I want all of you. I accept all of you. I’m proud to be associated with you, Holy Spirit. I’m proud to be associated with your revival, with leaders of your revival who are persecuted. I am unashamed. Hallelujah! Thank you, Jesus.

Can you just take a moment right now, every one of you close your eyes. It is just you and God in this room right now. It is you and Jesus. It is just you. Block out everything but you and Jesus.

Some of you I know are convicted. There’s parts of the Holy Spirit you’ve been ashamed of. There’s parts of the Holy Spirit you haven’t received yet. Just speak with God right now and surrender. Tell Him. Say I receive you, I’m unashamed of this part of you. Just from your own heart, speak with God right now. Thank you, Jesus. Invite Holy Spirit to have His absolute way right now.

Some of you need freedom, invite Him to free you. Say Holy Spirit, I want you to free me, I don’t care what it looks like. When you do that, He will come and free you. Thank you, Jesus.
