Power to Witness

Aug 9, 2026    Pastor Dan Smith

In Week 2 of SWAT: Spiritual Warfare and Tactics, Pastor Dan continues through the book of Acts.

Preaching from Acts 2:1–13, Pastor Dan teaches on the day of Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit came like a violent wind and tongues of fire rested on every believer. This was not just a spiritual moment for the apostles — it was the beginning of Spirit-empowered witness for the Church.

The message connects Pentecost to Mount Sinai, showing how the law was once written on tablets of stone, but now the Holy Spirit writes God’s law on human hearts. At Sinai, 3,000 died after rebellion. At Pentecost, about 3,000 were saved.

This message reminds us that the Holy Spirit gives believers power to be witnesses, not merely to have a spiritual experience. But Pastor Dan also warns that we can quench the fire of the Spirit through cynicism, wrong fire, unforgiveness, resisting bold preaching, and despising prophecy.

If we want to live on mission for Jesus, reach one more, and carry the fire of God into our homes, workplaces, schools, and city, we must receive the Spirit’s power and refuse to put out what God wants to ignite.
