Intimacy With The Holy Spirit (Part 1)
Show Notes

The Lord made it clear to us that the year 2019 is a year of Supernatural Power. We
were expected to trust God for the power of the Holy Spirit for our living and not rely
on our own power or might. Zech. 4:6
Most part of the year has been spent on teachings and preachings about the various
means by which the Supernatural Power of the Almighty God can be exhibited.
Thank God for what He has done already in each of our lives by His Supernatural
power in the first nine months and what He will yet do in the remaining part of this
year.
We shall deliberately be studying about the Holy Spirit this month as we round up
with the theme for this year. It is our prayer that the Lord will further open our eyes
of understanding and give each one of us a unique, personal and glorious encounter
during and after this series in Jesus Name. We therefore welcome the Holy Spirit into
our lives, family and church for a fresh and deeper experience with Him from this
day in Jesus Name. Welcome Holy Spirit!
