Look, I'm out here baptizing you with water to show you're turning your life around. But there's someone coming after me who's on a completely different level — I'm not even worthy to carry his shoes. He's going to baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.

When Jesus saw the crowd rushing over, he looked straight at the evil spirit and said, 'You spirit that steals speech and hearing — I'm commanding you: get out of him right now and don't you dare come back.'

When they drag you in front of authorities and put you on the spot, don't stress about what you're going to say or rehearse some perfect speech. Just speak whatever comes to you in that moment — because it won't actually be you talking, it'll be the Holy Spirit speaking through you.
