A.W. Tozer emphasizes the significance of the Holy Spirit as the source of 'the ability to do' in our lives, contrasting the true power of God with the mere concept of dynamite.

Tozer encourages believers to seek this divine ability, urging them to rely on the Spirit for strength and effectiveness in their calling. He concludes with a prayer for the manifestation of the Holy Spirit's power in the church and in individual lives.

Shane Idleman emphasizes the significance of Pentecost, marking the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the church, which coincided with the Jewish celebration of the early harvest. He explains that while the disciples were initially enthusiastic, they lacked the power of the Holy Spirit until they waited for it as instructed by Jesus. Idleman contrasts the 'sound of the Spirit' with unwanted noise, highlighting how the Holy Spirit's presence can be dismissed by those unappreciative of its power. He urges believers to seek the fullness of the Holy Spirit, emphasizing that true empowerment comes from surrendering to God and living in unity with one another. The sermon concludes with a call to both believers and non-believers to seek a deeper relationship with God and the transformative power of the Holy Spirit.

Wigglesworth stresses that being filled with the Holy Spirit is essential for the church to operate effectively and resist the power of Satan. He challenges listeners to reflect on their readiness to receive the Holy Spirit and the transformative power it brings.

F.B. Meyer emphasizes the accessibility of the Holy Spirit's power to all believers, likening it to understanding and obeying the laws of nature, such as electricity and water. He argues that just as one must learn the laws governing these forces to harness their power, Christians must understand the conditions set by God to receive the Holy Spirit's anointing. Meyer asserts that the Holy Spirit is not reserved for a select few but is available to everyone who meets the necessary conditions. He encourages believers to seek this power actively, suggesting that obedience to God's laws will enable them to command the Holy Spirit in their lives. Ultimately, Meyer inspires hope that anyone can experience the transformative power of the Holy Spirit.

Smith Wigglesworth emphasizes the necessity of being baptized with the Holy Spirit and fire, as foretold by John the Baptist, to fulfill our spiritual needs and empower us to serve others. He highlights that true satisfaction comes from the Holy Spirit, which flows like rivers of living water, enabling believers to overcome their weaknesses and fulfill God's purpose.

Ultimately, he calls for a continuous faith that allows the Holy Spirit to work through us for God's glory.

F.B. Meyer emphasizes the transformative power of the Holy Spirit in the life of David, who was anointed king and received a divine unction that empowered him for his future. Meyer encourages believers to seek a similar anointing, highlighting that the Spirit of the Lord can come upon anyone who separates themselves to God and asks for His power. He reminds us that the age of Pentecost is characterized by continual divine anointing, and that just as Jesus was empowered by the Spirit before His ministry, so too must we seek this empowerment to fulfill our calling. The sermon calls for a renewed reception of the Holy Spirit, urging believers to actively seek and receive this power for effective witness and service.

Chuck Smith emphasizes the profound promise of God to pour out His Spirit upon all flesh, highlighting the transformative power of the Holy Spirit in the lives of believers. He contrasts the selective outpouring of the Spirit in the Old Testament with the New Testament promise that all can receive this empowerment, leading to prophesy, strength, and wisdom. Smith illustrates the immediate effects of the Spirit's presence, such as speaking in new languages and the ability to witness and heal. He encourages believers to expect the Spirit's active role in their lives today, resulting in love and power that draws others to Christ.
