John 20:22 - On the evening of that first day of the week, when the disciples were together, with the doors locked for fear of the Jewish leaders, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you!” After he said this, he showed them his hands and side. The disciples were overjoyed when they saw the Lord. Again Jesus said, “Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.” And with that he breathed on them and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit”.
Acts 1:3-5 - After his suffering, he presented himself to them and gave many convincing proofs that he was alive. He appeared to them over a period of forty days and spoke about the kingdom of God. On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this command: “Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about. For John baptized with water, but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.”
The indwelling of the Holy Spirit is all you need for YOU.
The Baptism of the Holy Spirit is all you need for OTHERS.
John 14:16-17 - And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever - the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you.
Romans 8:26 - In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness.
Acts 2:1-6 - When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them. Now there were staying in Jerusalem God-fearing Jews from every nation under heaven. When they heard this sound, a crowd came together in bewilderment, because each one heard their own language being spoken.

In moments of fear, uncertainty, loss, and increased responsibility, Jesus didn’t leave His disciples with instructions alone, He left them with His own presence, continuing through the Holy Spirit. This message reminds us that fresh wind doesn’t come from striving harder, but from learning to lean deeper.
This sermon reminds us that the Holy Spirit is not reserved for a select few, not symbolic, and not optional. The promise is personal, powerful, and purposeful. When we shift our attention from speculation to reception, we step into the power God intended for every believer.
Before Jesus ascended, He made one thing unmistakably clear: His followers would never be left alone. In this teaching, Pastor Joakim Lundqvist unpacks the two distinct yet connected works of the Holy Spirit—the indwelling of the Spirit and the baptism of the Spirit—and why both are essential for the Christian life.
A lot of Christians have had a powerful moment with God… and then Monday hits. Life happens. Pressure builds. And suddenly we're trying to produce spiritual fruit through sheer effort, perfectionism, or performance. From Galatians 5, we learn that the Christian life isn't about trying harder to be good, it's about surrendering to the Holy Spirit, following His leading, and letting true fruit grow from the inside out.
Drawing from Scripture and the early church, this sermon breaks down common misconceptions and re-centers us on God's promise. The Holy Spirit isn't an upgrade for elite believers; He is a gift God wants to give to all who believe. This teaching invites us to remove fear, doubt, and hesitation—and simply receive what God has already offered.
