The Spirit of Power

The Spirit of God, the divine master, the eternal power of God, the combined life and presence by the Spirit, of the Father and the Son, is given to you -- not to leave you a weakling and subject to all kinds of powers of darkness, but to make you a master, to give you dominion in God over every devilish force that ever was.

God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. (2 Timothy 1:7)

The Spirit of Power is the Holy Ghost, . . . and not only of power, but of love and of a sound mind -- not craziness and insanity, but a sound mind by which you can look in the face of the devil and laugh.

-- John G. Lake, 1924
