Luke 11:5-13
5) He said to them, "Which of you, if you go to a friend at midnight, and tell him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread,
6) for a friend of mine has come to me from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him,‘
7) and he from within will answer and say, ‘Don‘t bother me. The door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed. I can‘t get up and give it to you‘?
8) I tell you, although he will not rise and give it to him because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence, he will get up and give him as many as he needs.
9) I tell you, keep asking, and it will be given you. Keep seeking, and you will find. Keep knocking, and it will be opened to you.
10) For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.
11) Which of you fathers, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, he won‘t give him a snake instead of a fish, will he?
12) Or if he asks for an egg, he won‘t give him a scorpion, will he?
13) If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?"
1 Corinthians 12:1-11
1) Now concerning spiritual gifts, brothers, I don‘t want you to be ignorant.
2) You know that when you were Gentiles, you were led away to those mute idols, however you might be led.
3) Therefore I make known to you that no man speaking by God‘s Spirit says, "Jesus is accursed." No one can say, "Jesus is Lord," but by the Holy Spirit.
4) Now there are various kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit.
5) There are various kinds of service, and the same Lord.
6) There are various kinds of workings, but the same God, who works all things in all.
7) But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the profit of all.
8) For to one is given through the Spirit the word of wisdom, and to another the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit;
9) to another faith, by the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healings, by the same Spirit;
10) and to another workings of miracles; and to another prophecy; and to another discerning of spirits; to another different kinds of languages; and to another the interpretation of languages.
11) But the one and the same Spirit works all of these, distributing to each one separately as he desires.
Galatians 5:22-23
22) But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
23) gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
Acts 10:38
38) even Jesus of Nazareth, how God anointed him with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good, and healing all who were oppressed by the devil; for God was with him.
1 John 2:20
20) You have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know the truth.
Acts 2:1-4
1) Now when the day of Pentecost had come, they were all with one accord in one place.
2) Suddenly there came from the sky a sound like the rushing of a mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
3) Tongues like fire appeared and were distributed to them, and it sat on each one of them.
4) They were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other languages, as the Spirit gave them the ability to speak.
