About This Book

The author urges readers to seek and receive the Holy Spirit's sustaining power for everyday Christian life, arguing that formal church membership is not the same as spiritual effectiveness. He presents two complementary truths: redemption through Christ's atonement and present empowerment by the Spirit, and stresses practical consequences—personal holiness, family leadership, faithful service—and how obstacles can choke spiritual channels. Chapters examine how to open and maintain those channels, the cost and personality involved in power, renewing supplies, and the necessity of tarrying to receive and use divine strength for character and ministry.
