In the New Testament, we read about the Holy Spirit empowering God’s people for amazing miracles. Sometimes the Holy Spirit miraculously healed the sick. Occasionally people spoke in a foreign language because the Holy Spirit enabled. Most have not experienced the Holy Spirit working in those miraculous ways. Sometimes, we wonder if the Holy Spirit is working in us at all. In this message, we discover how the Holy Spirit works today in ways we probably didn’t expect.
