THE BAPTISM OF THE SPIRIT EMPOWERS YOU
THE BAPTISM OF THE SPIRIT
EMPOWERS YOU
God
grants us His power and life when we become baptized in His spirit. Peter was
filled with fear and lacked courage; he denied Christ three times though he had
pledged never to deny Christ but after He was baptized in the spirit, he became
bold and courageous and was willing to die instead of hide for the course of
the gospel.
Are
you living in fear? Do you lack the courage to stand for what is right and
just? Do you fall into sin after you’ve pledged not to? Do you want to be
empowered? You need the baptism of the spirit of God.
I’ve
shared this story before let me share it again, my former boy who waits on me
didn’t believe in the baptism of the Holy spirit, in fact he laughs at those
who were being moved by God’s spirit and accused them of performing arts and
drama. He accused me of pushing people and boasted he can never be moved by it.
One day he was in church when I taught about the Baptism of the Holy Spirit and
invited whoever wants to experience it to return on Thursday. On that day we
came, he sat behind and was laughing at those being baptized and praying in
tongues afterwards as they received utterances. Then he came to prove to me
that nothing like that exists and after I laid hands on him, nothing happened,
he was like, you see, these people were just acting. When the service was over
and we were about to leave, then the spirit of God caught him and he fell,
scattering the entire church and kept falling and he started speaking in
tongues. After we waited more than an hour for him to recover, I took him home
and he sang the entire night glorying God.
He
became a gospel musician afterwards. He was healed of an inherited heart
disease from his parents after than encounter with divinity.
If
you desire this experience, God is ever ready to gift it to you. Joel 3:28 says
the baptism of the Holy Ghost is for all flesh, meaning it’s for you with all
its benefits.
God
bless you
