This video is the 2nd and concluding talk of the final Day 3 by Fr. Michael Payyapilly VC. Fr. Michael's inspiring talk on the Power of the Holy Spirit dwelling within each of us is a wake-up call for every Christian to live our mission on earth. "We receive the Holy Spirit on the day of our Baptism. From that day onwards, it is very important for us to rekindle the Fire of the Holy Spirit within us - to have a very intimate relationship with the Holy Spirit." "The Holy Spirit was regularly conversing with the early Christian community. This is what we are called to have - a relationship with the Person of the Holy Spirit. "The Holy Spirit is not just a gift from Jesus. The Holy Spirit the the Promise of Jesus. God will always keep HIs Promise and make it fruitful." "Open your heart and tell the Holy Spirit, 'Speak to me' and the Holy Spirit will speak to you. It will take some time . The more you speak to the Holy Spirit, the more you will understand His language." "We need to pray for a deep anointing of the Holy Spirit. Let us pray with a great passion and rekindle the Fire of the Holy Spirit."
