You have a responsibility not to cause fellow believers and non believers to stumble. How can you know what could cause them to stumble in their faith or what would keep non believers from comint to faith in Me? The answer is simple. I sent My Holy Spirit to give you keen discernment. Whenever you are with someone and you desire to be a witness that glorifies Me to that person, ask My Holy Spirit to help you discern what would draw that person closer to Me rather than further away from Me.
On the day of Pentecost, the one hundred twenty of My followers gathered in the upper room received the baptism of My Holy Spirit. One of the evidences of that baptism was their ability to speak in tongues. However, much more happened to them that day. They received My supernatural anointing that included the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of might and counsel, and the Spirit of knowledge and the the fear of Me. Those gathered were empowered to be effective witnesses of the gospel from that day forward.
You have that anointing within you already. However, stir up that anointing within you daily by praying in the Spirit, praying with your understanding, and by reading and heeding My Word. Ask Me to freshen that anointing within you so that you can go into the market place and be the witness I have called you to be.
