It is rare for people to listen to God nowadays because our times are noisy and restless and because our hearts are too full of newspapers and noise. When the Holy Spirit is heard in hearts, however, he calls forth in us holy resolves, holy acts of will, a holy shaping of life. God’s kingdom is now. God’s dominion is here. God’s kingdom is here, in the Holy Spirit. He is present in the unity of the church. His reign is present in the shaping anew of life.

Look at what is happening, listen to what is being said, and accept it. This is what is happening here: The blind see, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised. (Matt. 11:5)
Jesus is saying that if only you could believe what is actually happening, Christ would be revealed to you, and your questions about God’s Kingdom would be answered. That is what faith means.

In answer to our faith, and to the measure of our faith, everything will be done just as we ask. There is no wall, no mountain, no barrier too high for the prayer of faith. God is above everything. His Spirit is stronger than all other spirits. When a man’s faith, life, and deeds are in Jesus, who is the Word, all his prayers are answered. If everything we do has only one goal, that his kingdom comes, that his will becomes fact on earth, then the things we pray for will happen. Much more will happen than we could dare to put into words. God’s answer will surpass our boldest prayer. And so that we know it is God who does it all, it will happen even while we are praying or before we have spoken our prayer. Anyone who knocks at God’s door and seeks nothing but God alone, will receive what he asks for in the twinkling of an eye.

The Holy Spirit produces a judgment upon everything that resists him, for the light he brings is a fire that he kindles. For this reason he is a Spirit of reverence. As the Spirit of truth he brings into the light everything that tries to hide. He leads into the reality of ultimate truth by testifying to Christ and, as the Spirit of mercy and of prayer, by bestowing and granting whatever the believing person needs.
