How do we know that the Spirit empowers us according to the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

The Spirit empowers believers through the preaching of the Word, setting them on their feet to hear from God.

In Ezekiel 2:2, we see the Spirit entering into Ezekiel as he hears God's command. This illustrates the vital role of the Holy Spirit in empowering believers to respond to God's Word. The Spirit works in tandem with the Scriptures, enabling individuals to grasp spiritual truths and respond to God's calling. Throughout the New Testament, we witness the fulfillment of this empowerment, particularly on the day of Pentecost when the Holy Spirit empowered the apostles to proclaim the Gospel effectively. The Spirit's work is crucial for any change in a person's life, reminding us that we do not operate in our strength but through the dynamic presence of the Holy Spirit.
