If you follow our ministry on the Billy Burns Ministries Facebook page, you know that I often post quotations from men and women whose writing or preaching has impacted my life. These quotations about the Holy Spirit are taken from the writings or teachings/sermons of the likes of John Osteen, John Wesley, Norvel Hayes, Kenneth E. Hagin, Reinhard Bonnke, Oral Roberts, F.F. Bosworth, and Maria Woodworth-Etter. So, so powerful!
Today, while preparing several new posts to be published on Facebook in the next few weeks, I decided that it would be beneficial to share with you a few of the words and their source. I know that once you read them, you too will add them to your files. Enjoy.
