When the Holy Spirit moves, He disrupts a person’s life. He destroys those things we have been resting upon in order that we might come to the point of resting wholly and completely upon Him.”
A.W. Tozer

21. “And I tell you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened. … If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!” Luke 11:9-10, 13
