Jesus said, "you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you!"
power: ability to do or act; capability of doing or accomplishing something
Listen, God didn't stop talking there! If He did, than that power is misdirected. But Jesus wasn't done making the statement! See, you SHALL RECEIVE POWER but when you DO... you SHALL be WITNESSES of ME(JESUS)!
Jesus didn't give you His Spirit so you could sit on a pew and just look pretty! No, NO, no! He didn't enlighten you with that heavenly gift to go and make an ego for yourself! You ain't born again to get your picture taken either!
But, check this out! "You'll be witnesses of Me!" They witnessed what He did! They witnessed how He was. So their witness to their world was showing others what Jesus did! Not just by words, but by reflection! Like the Moon reflects the Sun, the Apostles reflected Jesus! Monkey see, monkey do!
God never said wait for revival! He said, "I am the resurrection and the life!" Revival isn't something that just comes, it's something that is spoken into existence! "Lazarus, come forth!" "Arise and walk!"
Listen, if you don't get, here it is plain like wheat bread:
God ain't call you to be reserved, He called you to be like Him and do what you see He's doing! Jesus healed, raised the dead, preached, casted out devils, was holy, was pure, He prayed, He fasted, He knew the Word, and He did crazy things!
BREAK DOWN THE BARRIERS! THAT'S OUR VERB! It'S what He did and it OUGHT to be what you and I dO TOO!
"Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do... "
