BUILDING SPIRIT
To build your physical body you need to eat food from the ground for our Bodies are formed from the ground, while to build your Spirit you need to eat spiritual food (bread) which is the word of God for the Bible say "Man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God".
Jesus admonished us that He is the way the TRUTH and the life.... The words of God are also the words of Truth.
The Word I speak of is not just the written letters (for the letters killeth) the letters are just one way God's truths are communicated and same way one can read the letters but not contact the word.
There's a difference between true and Truth
( e.g It is true that to cross a sea you may need to cross by a bridge or you sail across. But truth is that which can reveal other means to you like parting the sea and walking on dry ground or even walking on dry ground because truth is God and is captured in Him.)
Truth comes when God is revealed to you.
BUILDING POWER (Acts 1:8)
1KJV:The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,
2KJV:Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen:
3KJV:To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:
4KJV:And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.
5KJV:For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.
6KJV:When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
7KJV:And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.
8KJV:But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
Jesus promised His disciples power while He was leaving in verse 4 :And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.
Jesus instructed them to tarry in Jerusalem until they receive the promise of the father which is power. (verse 8)
Note that prior to this time they've already received the Holy Spirit what they then need is Him (The Holy Spirit) coming upon them and filling them for them to exploit His Dimensions of Power
also note that when the Holy Spirit came upon them He didn't give them power directly He gave them Tongues as a prayer language which if utilized eventually generated power.
the progression=>
1. Holy Spirit indwelling
2. Infilling(Baptism) with evidence of speaking in tongues (Prayer language)
3. Power
The Holy Spirit is the power but that power is only a potential in you and if it remains a potential in you it is of no use and can even amount to an affliction. But if you must make that power kinetic, use able you must engage it by praying.
