Experiencing the Spirit: Developing a Living Relationship with the Holy Spirit
Ebook
Overview
The Christian life is not a set of rituals or teachings, but a relationship with God through His Holy Spirit. No matter how much you know about the Bible, no matter how strong your self-discipline, no matter how hard you try to serve and please God, if your relationship with the Holy Spirit is weak, the Christian life will not work for you. In Experiencing the Spirit, Heidler shows how God wants to unleash His power in your life, to bring you into dynamic, life-giving relationship with the Spirit of God. We were given the Holy Spirit to make the Christian life experiential, to make Jesus real in our lives. So stop struggling to survive from week to week and start living every minute in the power He has given you.

“Ask God for direction in how to pray. Sickness can result from an interplay of a number of factors. On the natural level, physical problems can result from injury, from infection, from a genetic disorder or simply from physical weakness caused by inactivity, a lack of sleep or an improper diet. Sickness often has an emotional component. Emotional stress, depression, anger, fear and worry can all produce physical symptoms. Infirmity may also have a spiritual component, originating from sin, a curse, demonic oppression or simply as an attack from the enemy. Because so many factors may be involved, it’s always a good idea to get direction from God on how to pray.” (source)
“An unbeliever sins because he is a sinner. His spirit is cut off from God and his soul is in darkness. He has no option but to sin. He doesn’t need us to criticize and condemn him. What he needs is the impartation of the life of God that only comes through God’s free gift of salvation.” (source)
“Repentance is turning from everything you used to seek life from, and turning to Jesus as the source of your life.” (source)
“If you want to minister healing, you must be empowered by the Holy Spirit. As we have” (source)
