The Holy Spirit works in our hearts. Before ascending heaven, Jesus states that we have divine power received by the Holy Spirit. Hence, we have divine authority to win when we face against the evil in the name of God. For instance, when we are doing something that is inappropriate such as watching sexual movies, smoking weeds, or committing a crime, the Holy Spirit stops us from doing.

Try this. I wasn't able to spend much time, however.

The Holy Spirit works in our hearts. Before ascending to heaven, Jesus stated that we will have divine power received from the Holy Spirit. Hence, we have divine authority to win when we face against the evil in the name of God. For instance, when we are doing something that is wrong, the Holy Spirit warns us through our conscience. But we are free to ignore the warning of the Holy Spirit and so I denied the work of God in my life. I was weak in faith until the Holy Spirit came to me powerfully at the summer retreat. After speaking in tongues, I realized the Holy Spirit really wanted me to follow in the path of Jesus; to take up His cross and follow Him. I also realized that I had firmly closed my heart even though the Holy Spirit knocked. After confessing to God all my sins, I cannot resist preaching to unbelievers because the Holy Spirit granted me that mind. According to 2 Corinthians 4:1, “we do not preach ourselves, but Jesus Christ” preaches using us. If the Holy Spirit were not in my heart, I would not be able to resist temptations that come every day. Also, I am naturally not able to speak very well but the Holy Spirit helps me in speaking . Thus, the Holy Spirit works in us to teach and to guide us toward the righteous way.
