“‘And He commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify that it is He who was ordained by God to be Judge of the living and the dead. To Him all the prophets witness that, through His name, whoever believes in Him will receive remission of sins.’ While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell on all those who heard the word” (Acts 10:42–44).

Our faith is the victory that has overcome the world.
I offer this challenge: let anybody begin to work on the level of the Holy Spirit and see if he experiences anything less than the Lord’s own rescue and deliverance. This kind of evangelism will break Satan’s back worldwide, and he will be routed. It is this holy fire that cannot be imitated.
When a gun is loaded with blanks, the bang is the same as with live ammunition. A difference can be observed in the use of live ammunition and blanks, but not in its noise.
The dummy ammunition makes no mark on the target, because it never reaches it. The real bullet can hit its mark. We are not interested in mere bang and recoil, excitement and spectacular gospel displays, even if those draw hundreds of thousands of people.
We want to see something live hitting the bull’s-eye! The crowds may come, but we must, by faith, let loose a true broadside of Holy Spirit fire-power in order for something to be accomplished.
Multitudes are born again, lives are completely changed, churches are filled, hell is plundered, and heaven is populated. Hallelujah!
