produce very much fruit. 333 00:16:08.751 --> 00:16:10.071 line:15% That's why I detested it. 334 00:16:10.071 --> 00:16:12.471 line:15% That's why people had to be begged to do it. 335 00:16:12.471 --> 00:16:14.971 line:15% But when you partner with the Holy Spirit, 336 00:16:14.971 --> 00:16:19.451 line:15% suddenly testifying becomes a supernatural event. 337 00:16:19.451 --> 00:16:24.031 line:15% And Jesus said the Holy Spirit will testify of me. 338 00:16:24.031 --> 00:16:27.171 line:15% Well, first of all, when you begin to really partner 339 00:16:27.171 --> 00:16:29.651 line:15% with the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit will testify 340 00:16:29.651 --> 00:16:30.951 line:15% to you first. 341 00:16:30.951 --> 00:16:34.231 line:15% He will talk to you about Jesus 342 00:16:34.231 --> 00:16:37.271 line:15% because that's what the Holy Spirit loves to talk about. 343 00:16:37.271 --> 00:16:39.551 line:15% He's going to tell you about Jesus, remind you of 344 00:16:39.551 --> 00:16:41.651 line:15% what Jesus did, what Jesus said. 345 00:16:41.651 --> 00:16:44.031 line:15% He's going to reveal Jesus to you. 346 00:16:44.031 --> 00:16:46.351 line:15% The Holy Spirit knows Jesus. 347 00:16:46.351 --> 00:16:49.571 line:15% He is a firsthand account of everything that Jesus ever did 348 00:16:49.571 --> 00:16:51.071 line:15% and anything Jesus ever said. 349 00:16:51.071 --> 00:16:53.911 line:15% And he's going to tell you all about Jesus, 350 00:16:53.911 --> 00:16:57.071 line:15% but secondly, he wants to testify through you 351 00:16:57.071 --> 00:16:58.991 line:15% to other people who are lost. 352 00:16:59.851 --> 00:17:02.992 line:15% And that is why we read in Acts 1:8 - 353 00:17:02.992 --> 00:17:04.571 line:15% But you will receive power 354 00:17:04.571 --> 00:17:06.492 line:15% after that the Holy Ghost has come upon you 355 00:17:06.492 --> 00:17:10.652 line:15% and you shall be witnesses unto me, both in Jerusalem 356 00:17:10.652 --> 00:17:12.652 line:15% and in all of Judea and in Samaria 357 00:17:12.652 --> 00:17:14.732 line:15% and to the uttermost parts 358 00:17:14.732 --> 00:17:18.592 line:15% of the earth - when the Holy Spirit partners with us 359 00:17:18.592 --> 00:17:21.172 line:15% and we partner with him, not only does he speak 360 00:17:21.172 --> 00:17:23.152 line:15% to us about Jesus, 361 00:17:23.152 --> 00:17:27.932 line:15% but he begins to speak through us to others about Jesus. 362 00:17:27.932 --> 00:17:29.992 line:15% And it's not dead, it's not dry, 363 00:17:29.992 --> 00:17:31.832 line:15% it's not a work of the flesh. 364 00:17:31.832 --> 00:17:36.392 line:15% It is a supernatural declaration that releases the life 365 00:17:36.392 --> 00:17:39.132 line:15% and power of God into people's lives 366 00:17:39.132 --> 00:17:44.132 line:15% and often it comes with accompanying signs and wonders. 367 00:17:44.192 --> 00:17:48.532 line:15% We see a great example of this in Acts 2. 368 00:17:48.532 --> 00:17:50.472 line:15% The disciples, before they were filled 369 00:17:50.472 --> 00:17:54.472 line:15% with the Holy Spirit, were hiding behind doors for fear 370 00:17:54.472 --> 00:17:57.372 line:15% of the Jews, but when the Holy Spirit came up on them 371 00:17:57.372 --> 00:17:59.132 line:15% and suddenly they hitched up 372 00:17:59.132 --> 00:18:02.792 line:15% with him in a divine partnership, they blasted out from 373 00:18:02.792 --> 00:18:06.272 line:15% behind those doors and began preaching in the anointing 374 00:18:06.272 --> 00:18:08.352 line:15% and the power of the Holy Spirit. 375 00:18:08.352 --> 00:18:13.352 line:15% This was a super natural divine proclamation. 376 00:18:13.432 --> 00:18:16.412 line:15% It was supernatural evangelism. 377 00:18:16.412 --> 00:18:18.572 line:15% Now friends, I'm not trying 378 00:18:18.572 --> 00:18:21.232 line:15% to speak negatively about preplanned programs 379 00:18:21.232 --> 00:18:23.613 line:15% because I believe they're very helpful if you do it in 380 00:18:23.613 --> 00:18:25.673 line:15% partnership with the Holy Spirit. 381 00:18:25.673 --> 00:18:27.713 line:15% If you do it without the Holy Spirit just in the work 382 00:18:27.713 --> 00:18:30.013 line:15% of the flesh, it will not produce much. 383 00:18:30.013 --> 00:18:32.353 line:15% When you go out to testify, you have 384 00:18:32.353 --> 00:18:34.193 line:15% to involve the Holy Spirit. 385 00:18:34.193 --> 00:18:35.953 line:15% Realize he is your partner. 386 00:18:35.953 --> 00:18:38.873 line:15% He knows the heart of every person you're going to talk to. 387 00:18:38.873 --> 00:18:41.173 line:15% He has the key to every person's heart. 388 00:18:41.173 --> 00:18:43.173 line:15% He knows how to speak to every single person. 389 00:18:43.173 --> 00:18:46.133 line:15% He knows exactly what to say to every single person. 390 00:18:46.133 --> 00:18:50.633 line:15% And if you will partner with him, he will speak through you 391 00:18:50.633 --> 00:18:54.153 line:15% and testify through you to others about Jesus. 392 00:18:54.153 --> 00:18:56.813 line:15% This is just amazing to me. 393 00:18:56.813 --> 00:19:01.133 line:15% So why reduce testifying to a mere program 394 00:19:01.973 --> 00:19:06.313 line:15% when it can become a supernatural event in your life? 395 00:19:06.313 --> 00:19:09.453 line:15% And what I want you to see is the Holy Spirit came 396 00:19:09.453 --> 00:19:13.393 line:15% to testify to you about Jesus and he will if you'll listen. 397 00:19:14.293 --> 00:19:19.033 line:15% And he came to testify through you to others about Jesus. 398 00:19:19.033 --> 00:19:23.013 line:15% This is one of the works of the Holy Spirit. 399 00:19:23.013 --> 00:19:26.573 line:15% But today, we've seen the Holy Spirit has come to teach us 400 00:19:27.473 --> 00:19:29.453 line:15% and if you will become his apprentice, 401 00:19:29.453 --> 00:19:33.453 line:15% he will teach you everything you need to know. 402 00:19:33.453 --> 00:19:36.673 line:15% We've seen today the Holy Spirit comes to remind us. 403 00:19:36.673 --> 00:19:39.913 line:15% Jesus said, He will remind you of everything I ever said. 404 00:19:39.913 --> 00:19:42.293 line:15% He will remind you of what Jesus did. 405 00:19:42.293 --> 00:19:44.073 line:15% He will remind you of what Jesus said. 406 00:19:44.073 --> 00:19:46.033 line:15% You will no longer be able to claim 407 00:19:46.033 --> 00:19:47.493 line:15% that you can't remember verses 408 00:19:47.493 --> 00:19:49.653 line:15% because the Holy Spirit will remind you 409 00:19:49.653 --> 00:19:51.834 line:15% of every Bible verse you ever need to remember. 410 00:19:52.814 --> 00:19:54.754 line:15% And No.3, we've seen the Holy Spirit comes 411 00:19:54.754 --> 00:19:57.294 line:15% to testify first to you 412 00:19:57.294 --> 00:20:00.814 line:15% and to me: to us personally to reveal Jesus to us, 413 00:20:01.894 --> 00:20:04.794 line:15% and to speak through us, to testify 414 00:20:04.794 --> 00:20:09.794 line:15% to others about the saving, powerful, redeeming work 415 00:20:09.854 --> 00:20:11.194 line:15% of Jesus Christ. 416 00:20:11.194 --> 00:20:12.994 line:15% And if we will yield to him 417 00:20:13.954 --> 00:20:15.854 line:15% and say, Holy Spirit, you're the master, 418 00:20:15.854 --> 00:20:18.934 line:15% I'm the apprentice. I trust you as the spirit of truth. 419 00:20:18.934 --> 00:20:22.194 line:15% I will explicitly do whatever you say. 420 00:20:22.194 --> 00:20:25.654 line:15% We will begin to experience his teaching work, 421 00:20:25.654 --> 00:20:30.654 line:15% his reminding work and his testifying work in our lives. 422 00:20:30.774 --> 00:20:33.474 line:15% And my friends, we're just getting started 423 00:20:33.474 --> 00:20:37.034 line:15% because there's more that the Holy Spirit wants 424 00:20:37.034 --> 00:20:38.994 line:15% to do in our lives. 425 00:20:38.994 --> 00:20:40.774 line:15% And when I come back in the next program, we're going 426 00:20:40.774 --> 00:20:44.414 line:15% to pick up right here and see what are the next works 427 00:20:44.414 --> 00:20:47.294 line:15% that the Holy Spirit wants to do inside me 428 00:20:47.294 --> 00:20:49.314 line:15% and inside you and my friend. 429 00:20:49.314 --> 00:20:51.674 line:15% If we'll partner with him, you 430 00:20:51.674 --> 00:20:56.574 line:15% and I can become the Dynamic Duo with the Holy Spirit: 431 00:20:56.574 --> 00:21:00.494 line:15% you and the Holy Spirit working together. 432 00:21:00.494 --> 00:21:02.914 line:15% I'm out of time, but I'll be back in just a moment 433 00:21:02.914 --> 00:21:03.974 line:15% and I want to pray for you. 434 00:21:12.080 --> 00:21:13.395 line:15% This is Rick Renner 435 00:21:13.395 --> 00:21:17.155 line:15% and somebody has asked the question - Why is it so important 436 00:21:17.155 --> 00:21:18.875 line:15% to speak the word of God 437 00:21:18.875 --> 00:21:21.875 line:15% or confess the word of God out loud?
