Evangelist Martha P. Davis delivers a passionate sermon centered on Acts 18 and the empowerment of the Holy Spirit. She begins by calling believers to praise God regardless of circumstance, emphasizing His worthiness and the holiness of His presence. The sermon focuses on the transformative power of the Holy Ghost, especially as seen in the lives of early believers like Paul and Apollos.
Evangelist Davis highlights that while many know about Jesus through repentance and water baptism (like John's baptism), the baptism of the Holy Ghost is essential for boldness, spiritual discernment, and power over evil. She recounts how Apollos, though mighty in Scripture, still needed further teaching, and how Paul corrected and empowered new disciples who had never heard of the Holy Spirit.
A strong warning is issued against imitating spiritual power without truly knowing Christ, as illustrated by the failed exorcism attempt of the sons of Sceva. Evangelist Davis urges believers to seek a personal, Spirit-filled relationship with God, not just intellectual knowledge or religious formality.
The sermon ends with an exhortation to hunger for the fullness of God, pursue the baptism of the Holy Ghost, and reject ministries that deny its necessity. Her message is one of empowerment, urgency, and spiritual readiness in the last days.
