Olivia (Myanmar)
Hello everyone. My name is Olivia, I’m from Myanmar. Today I want to testify about the power of the Holy Spirit. In February 2023, I had a chance to attend the AsiaLink Conference. Before that, I had not encountered the Holy Spirit, although I was born in a Christian Family. I learnt many things from that conference, especially about the Holy Spirit. That was a subject I needed to acknowledge in real life.
The thing I have learnt is to talk and to walk with the Holy Spirit, and to give time for God first. I should not forget to give time for God in the same way as I do not forget to eat. When I give time for God, the Holy Spirit will talk to me. That’s why I came to know that I must take time with God more and more to hear the voice of the Holy Spirit.
I have also learnt about forgiveness. This is the main thing that I need, actually, because there are some things that I could not forgive concerning my father’s death. Two years ago, my father died in a car accident. He was the only one who died; all the others survived. The driver was drunk at that time, and my father became the victim. That’s why I could not forgive him, this driver. I was carrying resentment all the time, even though I didn’t speak out.
This unforgiveness made my heart burn. At the conference, God spoke to me through Matthew 6,12: “And forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors.” I committed my life to God so that He might be able to give me the strength to forgive. Finally, I could forgive totally, and I got peace. Now I am totally free by the Holy Spirit. We need to invite the Holy Spirit into our lives so He may be able to pour His power in us.
May God bless you all!
