Title: How We Can Transform The United Kingdom
Key Text: Joel 2:28-29
Key Message:
There are all kinds of opposition facing the church today. We need to stand strong in our faith and resist demand in the time of trial and keep ourselves standing in the promises that the Lord has given us all around the world. The Prophet Joel speaks about how God will pour out his spirit upon all flesh. God gave us the promise of the Holy Spirit, because He could transform any situation.
Many believers were under the oppression of the Roman people and they were awaiting a Messiah that would guide them to a great political reform or even to a war in order to take over power. But at the end of it all, they ended up understanding that true freedom could only be experienced in this spirit. And that authority comes upon a nation not through violence. But actually, through the churches that actually understand the power of prayer, those that are full and strengthened by the Holy Spirit are the ones that could truly be free and they could transform the nations.
God is saying that during this season, do not fix your eyes on your circumstances, whether it's a political or social situation, but fix your eyes and give your best to be strengthened in the spirit and endure in prayer so that you could obtain all the promises that God has in store for each and every one of you.

(Key Verses: Luke 24:49; Isaiah 60:22; John 16:14-15; Romans 8:26; Romans 8:11; Isaiah 60:22; Luke 24:49)
The Lord is going to use you. He's going to use you in a mighty way so that the Gospel could continue expanding all over the world. We need to remember that Jesus said, Behold, I send the promise of my father upon you, Peter.
In Luke 24:49; notice that the Lord said to the disciples that they should not move from Jerusalem until they are endowed with power.
There are moments where we need to be still in the place where God appointed us so that we could receive the anointing, the fullness of the Holy Spirit, and that is what will later move us to influence other nations.
Now, as you know, the day of Pentecost was the beginning of the Ministry of the Holy Spirit, because the Lord Himself He had said, I will pour out my spirit on all flesh.
And that manifestation began with 120 were in the upper room and they began to pray in other tongues according to the utterance of the Spirit.
And through that is where 300 Jews they received Jesus in their hearts on that day when they heard the word that was spoken by the Apostle Peter this year.
And from that moment forward, the church began to grow in an exponential manner, where every single day more people were being added to the church, and it says that the church was growing and the church was increasing and then it says that the church was multiplying.
The revival came because the Holy Spirit visited the believers on the day of Pentecost.
The time that we are living in our special days with the Lord himself, He wants to move in the same dimension and He wants to use the Holy Spirit where every one of His children are going to be connected to Him in a supernatural way because there is no time to waste as you know, there is no middle ground anymore.
Either people are Christians or they are the opposite. Christians need to shake up from all conformity and we need to begin to work in influencing the lives of many people and try to lead as many people as we can to Jesus. Remember, Jesus making reference to the Holy Spirit. He said He will glorify me, for He will take of what is mine and declare it to you.
And that he said all things that the Father has are mine. Therefore, I said He will take of mine and declare it to you. We need to understand that the Holy Spirit, He is the only one who manages God's riches, the Father and the Son. They share an infinite treasure, but the one in charge of revealing it and interpreting it is the Holy Spirit.
All of God's capital is managed by the Spirit of God, the Father. He has a wealth full of all the things that man could ever need on this Earth. Anyone who is longing to be blessed by the blessings of God, they need to have a good relationship with the Holy Spirit and thus will have access to God's Divine Treasure that is found in the beautiful person of the Holy Spirit.
