New
Testament Power is a Literal Force.
Specifically miraculous Power, usually by impartation by the Holy Spirit
and at times by Prophets.
If
you desire to move in Holy Spirit Power you must first search your heart asking
God to reveal any thing that is preventing you from moving in God and then
repent of all sin.
Be
willing to lay down your Will and accept God’s Will for your life.
Finally
ASK to be filled with the Holy Spirit and His
Power.
Acts
1:8 But
ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye
shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem ,
and in all Judaea, and in Samaria
Jesus
said you shall do mightier works:
John
14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto
you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater
works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
