------------------------------------------------------------------------

David Wilkerson emphasizes that the Holy Spirit is actively working
beyond the confines of the church, reaching out to both believers and
nonbelievers alike. He highlights that the Spirit convicts of sin,
comforts the broken, and is present in every situation, even in the most
challenging circumstances. The Holy Spirit is portrayed as the leading
evangelist, bringing life to those lost in sin and inspiring dreams and
visions in the hearts of sinners. Wilkerson encourages Christians to
expand their understanding of the Spirit's work and to trust in His
power to transform lives. Ultimately, the message is a call to recognize
and participate in the Holy Spirit's mission to reach all of humanity.

Too often Christians want to keep the Holy Spirit confined to their own
small world but Jesus said he would pour out his Spirit on all flesh;
not just believers but nonbelievers, as well. "I will pour out of My
Spirit on all flesh" (Acts 2:17). Jesus associated with sinners and
ministered to them. Today, the Holy Spirit seeks to lead sinners into
all truth, to convict of sin and comfort those who need it most.

The Holy Spirit is Christ's leading evangelist. "I will shake all
nations" (Haggai 2:7). "Whose voice then shook the earth ... 'Yet once
more I shake not only the earth, but also heaven'" (Hebrews 12:26). He
is already at work everywhere Christ sends us, so do not ever be
surprised when you go into impossible situations and see his handiwork.

The Holy Spirit is never shocked by what he sees -- he came to bring
life to those who are dead in sin and living in broken conditions. He is
the very breath of God, convicting of sin but not condemning, rebuking
or moralizing. We must preach that he is everywhere and working on
everybody.

The Holy Spirit responds to a hungry heart but he also comes to those
who have not even called upon God's name. "I was found by those who did
not seek Me" (Isaiah 65:1). He will actually enter the dreams of sinners
and give them visions. We may think that all dreams and visions are
given to Christians but that is not so. Some sinners have recurring
dreams in which the Holy Spirit shows them what they could be, what life
could be like if they came to Christ. The Word says, "I will pour out My
Spirit on all flesh ... Your old men shall dream dreams, your young men
shall see visions" (Joel 2:28). The Holy Spirit is doing this miraculous
work right now all over the world, healing and bringing people to
Christ.

If you are going to be used by the Spirit, you must expand your world
and take off all limitations trusting in the power of the Holy Spirit!
