The Word for 2019

Speaker: Apostle Lucille Baird
Theme: Operating Under The Empowerment of The Holy Spirit and The Righteousness of God

Introduction:
Operate is to function

Empowerment of The Holy Spirit: Empowerment means to give power to give official power and authority to be able to act on behalf in someone. To commission , to certify someone we have delegated power. When God delegates His authority, He trusts us to act on His behalf. When God delegated His authority to us we must make God look good. When God appoints us to carry the power of the HS we are empowered to act on behalf of Jesus. Change things in your village, island, region in the world. Jesus said He was going to Heaven to make room for the HS to come. He is not a thing He is a person. The Righteousness of God: By the time Jesus died on the cross I was made righteous. It’s not what I do it’s what He did. It’s not my hard work it’s Christ’s blood that made me righteous.

In 2019 we will operated under the power of God.

Main points: Point 1: He was in the beginning Genesis 1:1-2 1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. When the Holy Spirit takes over signs and wonders must happen and the Kingdom must come to the earth as it is in Heaven. Holy Spirit wants to come and hover over your darkness and emptiness, He wants to being form to your life, bring order to your life.

Point 2: He anointed men for specific reasons. Judges 14:5-6 5 Samson went down to Timnah together with his father and mother. As they approached the vineyards of Timnah, suddenly a young lion came roaring toward him. 6 The Spirit of the Lord came powerfully upon him so that he tore the lion apart with his bare hands as he might have torn a young goat. But he told neither his father nor his mother what he had done. 1 Sam 16:13-14 13 So Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the presence of his brothers, and from that day on the Spirit of the Lord came powerfully upon David. Samuel then went to Ramah. 14 Now the Spirit of the Lord had departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the Lord tormented him.

The power of God can take a mere man and turn him into a mighty machine!
Nothing will happen in the earth unless it is empowered by the Holy Ghost.
We are not just shaking on the ground we are shaking nations.

Speaker: Rev Gail Price Point 3: He moved upon Mary Luke 1:35 35 The angel answered, “The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called[b] the Son of God. But Mary asked in verse 34 “How will this be,since I am a virgin?” The Holy Spirit came upon Mary and empowered her. She had qualities that qualified her for the empowerment of Holy Spirit. HS is looking for someone to hover over. He will hover over you and you will conceive and give birth to that project, that ministry God has called you to start, to run. You might have plans but the HS has a master plan for you. The LORD can change your path, many are the plans of man, but God! God is about to break forth in your life.

God is pleased with you and He promises to send the Holy Spirit. He will come on you to cover you. God will change your situation by overshadowing you. When he comes it is His image that will be cast upon you with power.

Speaker: Rev Elvis Goodman Point 4: He came upon Jesus at his baptism and the beginning of His Ministry. Matt. 4:1 Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. Luke 4:1 Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, left the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, The devil sucks you and drains you but the HS is like the autenator He charges your battery. Holy Spirit brings boldness and bravery to you. He inspires you to go on!This year God will do great things as we receive the baptism of the HS. We will get the inheritance that we were promised in 2018

Speaker: Pastor Sonya Henry Point 5: After death He rose Jesus from the dead 1 Peter:1:20-21 20 He was chosen before the creation of the world, but was revealed in these last times for your sake. 21 Through him you believe in God, who raised him from the dead and glorified him, and so your faith and hope are in God. Romans 1:4 4 and who through the Spirit of holiness was appointed the Son of God in power[b] by his resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 8:11 11 And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you.

(Seen here her gran daughter - Lizzie!)

The Holy Spirit quicken Jesus and death could not hold him He has no equal. Quicken means to make alive or stir. He has the Devine ability to make things happen.

Isaiah 40: 31 Holy Spirit can strengthen you to quicken you to stir us up and being back to life that dead marriage, the soul that is dead in sin, He wants to being life to every dead situation.

Expand your tent pegs, may you abound, may He burn up every plan of the enemy and Break every bond that holds you back.

Speaker: Apostle Lucille Baird Point 6: He fell upon the new church and quickened and empowered them John 3:34 34 For the one whom God has sentspeaks the words of God, for God[i] gives the Spirit without limit. John 20:21 – 22 21 Again Jesus said, “Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.” 22 And with that he breathed on them and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit. We are His agents in the earth. Peter and John were changed they were not the same as they use to be. God is serious about changing His church. Holy Spirit is first going to come to the church. We are his agents in the earth.

Change is going to be visible because of Holy Spirit! Are you ready for the glory of God, when the HS comes His glory comes.
He is going to come upon you and change your personality!
Holy Spirit wants to touch our children, the power of God will fill them with authority. Peter who was frightened of a maid became a powerhouse. They confronted power through the HG. More power to God’s people.

Speaker : Apostle Chris Baird Point 7: He is coming at this season in his Fullness Joel 2:28 28 “And afterward, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, your young men will see visions. The last days started in Acts 2 Things will happen if we just believe God and it shall happen. We have handed over the church to the HS

Holy Spirit is first going to come to the church. We are his agents in the earth. He is going to come upon you and change your personality! Change is going to be visible because of Holy Spirit! Look at what happened in Acts 4: The Holy Spirit is given to us to continue to work that Jesus started while on earth. He wants to enable the church to move into the community He enables you to work and function for Him. He came to bring restoration. He moves you to a new position. He has come to usher in the second coming of Jesus.

It is impossible to be saved without the HS, it is He that enables you to overcome sin and live a holy, victorious life. It's impossible to live a victorious life without Holy Spirit. Invite him to fill you totally

Speaker: Pastor Eudine Medford Point 8: Its no longer man’s agenda When the apostles were brought in and made to appear before the Sanhedrin to be questioned by the high priest. Timed Peter was the first to speak up, being filled with the Holy Spirit. Acts 5:29 29 Peter and the other apostles replied: “We must obey God rather than human beings!

Holy Spirit is about to shake you and shake your location. There will be a shaking in the church
God is entitling us to shake, empowering us to shake and licensing us to shake. He's causing dry bones to live again!

Holy Spirit wants us to wait on him. When we are in unison, great things will happen!

Speaker: Rev Gail Price Acts 4:31 31 After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken.And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of Godboldly.

Speaker: Apostle Lucille Point 10: The last day revival is here Acts 2:14 - 16 14 Then Peter stood up with the Eleven, raised his voice and addressed the crowd: “Fellow Jews and all of you who live in Jerusalem, let me explain this to you; listen carefully to what I say. 15 These people are not drunk, as you suppose. It’s only nine in the morning! 16 No, this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel: We must put things in place to usher in his coming. Let's ready ourselves

The church will walk in Kingdom dominion and nations will be impacted.
