But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

Acts 1:8

        3.   
      3. We need to be conductors to        allow the power to flow
        4.  
  • Sooner or later, man has      always had to decide whether he is going to trust in his own power or the Power      of God.
