There are nine fruit that come from being filled with the Holy Spirit. They are fruit regarding God, (love, joy, & peace) people, (patience, kindness, & goodness) and oneself, (faithfulness, gentleness, & self-control) The filling of the Holy Spirit is the fruit of Jesus' teachings and the actualization of God's works being with you. When you pray or worship, God works through His Word; salvation; and power. When "The Throne's Power" comes upon you, God's Kingdom; the "7 Missions of Only"; the ends of the earth; (doors of evangelism) "my 237"; the personal secret contract; the impending future; and the Lord of the Second Coming will be seen. The works of the Holy Spirit that Jesus spoke of appeared to Peter (Acts 2:14~21, 17~18, 3:1~12, & 1 Peter 2:9) and Paul, (Acts 9:15, 11:25~26, & 18:1~4) Priscilla and Aquila introduced the baptism of the Holy Spirit to Apollos, who had only received the baptism of John. (Acts 18:24-28)

1. The Result of Being Filled with the Holy Spirit
God's works will begin to occur. (Hebrews 11:1) He made the Israelites cross the Red Sea. (Hebrews 11:29-30) By testifying of Christ, other people actually came to life and became witnesses. Through the fruit of the Holy Spirit, they overcome kingdoms; fire; swords; and death (Hebrews 11:33-35) and conquered the world. In the end, through the Spirit of the Lord, they saw the glory of the Lord. (2 Corinthians 3:18)

2. What Has Properly Taken Place Must Continue
4 Through the filling of the Holy Spirit, you must discern God's will and not be deceived by the world. (Ephesians 5:16-18) You need to pray in the Holy Spirit at all times, (Ephesians 6:8-20) yearn for the Word with an earnest heart, (Acts 17:11) receive the Word with your heart, (Psalm 119:11) not grieve the Holy Spirit, (Ephesians 4:25~30) not cherish sin, (Psalm 66:18) and offer a living sacrifice. (Romans 12:1~2)

3. Faith in the Works of the Holy Spirit (John 14:21)
To love God's Word is to love God and to be loved by Him. Your faith is in the Holy Spirit. Without the Holy Spirit, you cannot confess Christ as Lord.

From now on, please plan a 40-day relay fasting prayer for the entire church and begin 40-day intensive prayer in each region or district. Individuals may decide to use early morning prayer, Wednesday night service, or Friday night service. The prayer of the filling of the Holy Spirit is to find (24) C.V.D.I.P. At this time, works (25) that'll change the world will take place. What's more important is to make Remnants survive wherever they go.

[Covenantal Prayer] Dear God, please let me have evidences that You're always with me, so that I can live and become a witness who saves others; conquers the world; and sees the glory of the Lord. Help me not to be deceived by the world, but offer myself as a living sacrifice and receive Your love. In Jesus Christ's name, I pray. Amen.
