-the wind of the Spirit

-wind us powerful.. breathe is personal

1. The wins is invisible yet real

-to the world, the Holy Spirit is unreal.. but to the believers, we know Him experiencially

-

2. The wind is constant in movement

4  winds of the Spirit

   1. the east wind of discipline

      -the east wind often brings pain and grieve.. but God is in control

   -it is in the trail of many times that we develop mountain moving faith

   2. The west wind of deliverance-the Holy Spirit can blow our suffering away

   3. The north wind of awakening

   -cool and refreshing

   -Holy Spirit awakens us with fresh visions

   4. The south wind of transformation

-it was the annointing that takes good works to another level

2 levels of annointing

1. The annointing within us

-awaken a hunger and thrist for God

-a longing for God's presence, love

-when we are confused, we have the Holy Spirit guarding and guiding us

-signs and miracles can't change people's heart

-

2. The annointing upon us

-God form us inwardly, then overflows outwardly

-without inner growth results in burn out

-it is the inner annointing that sustains the outer annointing

-

-we can use the annointing for good or for evil

   -Saul never allow the Holy Spirit to change in heart

      -anger and jealousy destroyed him and the annointing of God left him

-seek the person.. not the power

-if we seek the power, we will use the Holy Spirit. If we seek the person, the Holy Spirit will use us

-it is the not us, but the annointing of the Holy Spirit

-this only happens if we surrender more and more

-we can quieten the Holy Spirit.. it's our choice

-if we reject, He simply withdraw and walk away

-the Holy Spirit is looking for a willing heart

-allow the Holy Spirit to rub it in till our spiritual blindness is gone

   -make the most out of everything

-God comes to us, disguise as our life

-whwn we are in pain, don't hide, don't run away from it

   -if we run away, pain becomes big and we become small

   -stay in it, with God.. the pain will become small and we grow bigger

-we will get "no" from God

-if God is not anxious, we don't have to be anxious either

-

-

-God gives rest

-rest becomes a lifestyle

-Jeus didn't come to improve our life...

   -bring our cross to die for the things that are killing us and Jesus will give us the life 

-

-if we don't have enough time or energy and resources.. we doing things not what Jesus wants us to do

-we do things without Jesus permission.. results in burn out
