The Holy Spirit is the Hidden Mover behind all personal life transformation and ministry fruitfulness.
Since the original publication of Spirit Walk, author Steve Smith has gone home to meet
the Lord face-to-face. However, before that glorious day, he penned an impassioned plea
to believers in the last days of his life. That plea and piece of instruction is what comprises
the new foreword in this special edition of Spirit Walk. Read and be both challenged and
invited to a life lived in the power of the Holy Spirit.
Though we know the Bible says to walk in the Spirit, the majority of Christians are illiterate
(and even nervous) about how to practically live in His power. The result is lives marred by
continued brokenness and ministries plagued by fruitlessness. In contrast, believers from Acts
understood the ancient path of the Spirit Walk. That extraordinary power was not just for them,
but also for us.
Gleaning insights from implementation in dozens of Acts-like movements around the
world, Spirit Walk “lifts the hood and shows us the real secret behind apostolic, disciple multiplying movements” (Neil Cole, author of Organic Church). Whether you need a
movement of God in your personal life or in your ministry, this book takes you through the
timeless principles of the Bible.
The Spirit Walk path has helped thousands of ordinary people shift from a fundamental
reliance upon methods and self-helps to the essential reliance upon the Spirit who empowers
both. Discover how to start on your lifelong journey of being filled again and again by the Holy Spirit as you abide in Christ.
圣灵是所有个人生命转化和事工丰硕结果的隐藏推动者。
自从《圣灵之行》一书首次出版以来,作者史蒂夫·史密斯已回归天家与主面对面相会。然而,在那光荣的日子之前,他写下了一封充满激情的呼吁,给信徒们在他生命的最后时光。这份呼吁和指导构成了《圣灵之行》特别版的新前言。阅读并受到挑战和邀请,活出在圣灵能力中的生命。
雖然我們知道圣經教導我們要在圣靈中行走,但大多數基督徒對于如何實際地在祂的能力中生活感到無知(甚至緊張)。其結果是生活持續受損,事工飽受無果之苦。相比之下,使徒行传中的门徒们理解了古老的圣靈之行之道。那非凡的力量不僅屬于他們,也屬于我們。
从全球数十个类似使徒行传的运动中获得的见解,《圣灵之行》“掀开面纱,向我们展示了使徒般的门徒繁增运动背后的真正秘密”(尼尔·科尔,《有机教会》一书的作者)。无论您需要在个人生活中或事工中体验上帝的运动,这本书将带您走进圣经中永恒的原则。
圣灵之行的道路已经帮助成千上万的普通人从对方法和自助的根本依赖,转向对那对圣灵的基本依赖。发现如何开始您终身的旅程,一直在基督里过程中,不断被圣灵充满。
