Hello. I'm Pastor Shin who runs Christian Spirituality Academy (CSA).
Today's message is "Open the gate of the spiritual world when you pray."
Prayer is the way for you to have a deep and intimate fellow with God.
The word of God is also a way to meet God. But if you do not pray for the Holy Spirit to live in you, it's just knowledge in your head.
In other words, you cannot meet God unless you pray for the Holy Spirit to live in you.
However the leaders of the church don't know about the prayer for the Holy Spirit to live in you. So it's difficult for the leaders to teach such a prayer.
Ephesians 6:18 says that "And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people."
2 Corinthians 13:14 says "May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all."
John 15:7 says "If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you."
These verses are talking about the prayer to have a deep and intimate fellowship with the Holy Spirit.
To receive the spiritual power and to live a life that walks with God, you have to pray for Holy Spirit to live in you and pray to have the deep and intimate fellowship with the Holy Spirit.
Only then will you be able to experience the power of Holy Spirit that brings signs and miracles.
However if you pray only at the prayer meetings at the church at the certain time,
and you pray only for the worldly desires, you socialise then you go home,
and if that's the only kind of prayer you do, God wouldn't be interested in your prayer.
Acts 1:8 says "But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
I teach and train people how to pray for Holy Spirit to live in them.
Who is Holy Spirit? Isn't He God Almighty?
So as a result of the training, one must be walking with God Almighty.
In other words, one must witness and experience the signs and miracles of God Almighty in his or her life.
Isn't that becoming a witness?
It's exactly what Jesus said to His disciples before his ascension.
Are you living as the witness of Jesus while you are experiencing the amazing power of Holy Spirit?
I have trained several hundreds of people how to pray properly.
More than a hundred people have graduated.
However almost a thousand people asked to be trained and had started training.
With the exception of those who have graduated or are still being trained, most of the trainees quit in the middle.
Do you know why?
They say the prayer is too difficult and it's too hard to find time.
Some time ago, a woman asked for the prayer coaching. So I told her that she should pray 1 hour in the morning and 1 hour in the evening. She was so surprised.
She said that she believe she had the Holy Spirit in her but that she felt Him very weakly.
Didn't Jesus order that we should pray all the time while we are awake?
Apostle Paul also said "Pray without resting."
The Greek word for "without resting" is "ἀδιαλείπτως (ad-ee-al-ipe'-toce)". It means "without stopping".
Therefore "without resting" means "without stopping".
Samuel said resting from the prayer is a sin.
However the sister couldn't understand when I told her that she needs to pray 2 hours a day.
Sometime ago the Holy Spirit told me that I need to do the Daniel's prayer.
Daniel prayed 3 times a day.
The apostles and disciples of the early churches followed in Daniel's footsteps in prayer.
However the sister seemed like she couldn't do 2 hours of prayer a day as a requirement of her training.
Christians believe that they deserve to go to Heaven and that they have the Holy Spirit in them. But they cannot pray even one hour a day. It's very hard to understand.
Still most Christians cannot pray even one hour a day.
It's very disappointing.
I ask for the prayer calling God earnestly.
Tense your abs to concentrate and pray earnestly and you will start to witness the spiritual changes happening.
First, the evil spirits are revealed or attack you.
Anyone with the evil spirits hidden inside sees that the evil spirits run away or attack after the prayer.
Weak evil spirits run away, causing spitting, phlegm, coughing, yawning, burping, gagging, vomiting, gas, diarrhoea and stomachaches while praying.
Stronger evil spirits rather attack than run away. They cause headaches, dizziness and rashes. They make you feel pain everywhere in your body.
If you have previous or chronic illnesses, they would attack with the illnesses.
Colds and muscle aches are also common types of attack.
Unfortunately the strongest ones never reveal themselves.
However, if you pray for Holy Spirit to come and live with you, you would experience that the weak and the mid-level evil spirits are revealed.
Of course, these things will only happen after you pray to call God and ask Holy Spirit to live in you earnestly and wholeheartedly.
According to my experience, two thirds of Christians who asked me to pray for them have evil spirits hidden in them.
Therefore there's a high chance that evil spirits have hidden themselves in you who is watching this video right now.
Even if they are not in you, it's 100% certain that they will attack you from the outside.
And even if you do not experience the evil spirits run away from you, you cannot say that you have the Holy Spirits in you.
If there's the Holy Spirit in you, you will see both internal and external evidence.
Internal evidence is that you enjoy peace, joy and freedom in your life.
External evidence is you show changes and have the power of the Holy Spirit.
Your character will be changed into a holy one, and you will have the great fruits of the Holy Spirit.
Without exception, the one with Holy Spirit will receive the gifts of wisdom, knowledge, faith, healing, miraculous powers, prophecy, distinguishing between spirits, tongues and interpretation of tongues. However each individual's gifts could vary.
However, everyone with the Holy Spirit can identify and expel the evil spirits.
There's no verse in the Bible that says expelling evil spirits is the "gift" of Holy Spirit.
Jesus and the apostles who were baptised in Holy Spirit expelled the evil spirits, healed the sick, saved souls and expanded God's kingdom.
The disciples with the Holy Spirit should swiftly receive answers to their prayers, show miracles and signs and save souls.
But even when you believe that the Holy Spirit dwells in you but if your soul is cold and dry and your life is hard and difficult, wouldn't it be the evidence that the evil spirits are hidden in you?
You can't live this powerless life when there is God.
Therefore if you're not knowledgeable about the spiritual world and you don't have experience about spiritual beings, you wouldn't be related with God even though you go to church every Sunday.
People like that would go to hell 100%.
Therefore from now on, make up your mind and pray to open your eyes to the spiritual world.
Opening the spiritual eyes means you have spiritual discernment.
If you're not a person born again in the Holy Spirit and if you're not a person of the Holy Spirit, you won't get into Heaven.
Jesus told us that only the people born again of the Holy Spirit and only the people of the Holy Spirit will see Heaven.
That was today's message. Thank you.
