The "upon" experience continues in the New Testament alongside indwelling: Acts 4 prayer for boldness as a second coming of the Spirit upon believers already indwelt.

20 Questions with Pastor Mike (Episode 21) 00:18:21 – 00:19:21

Reconciling Old Testament "upon" empowerment with New Testament reality.

Acts 4 (post-Pentecost) shows believers already filled with the Spirit praying for boldness and then being filled again with the Spirit. This shows the empowerment "upon" experience did not end with the New Covenant — it operates alongside permanent indwelling. Mike relates this to his personal experience of receiving new enablement when entering new ministry contexts.
