Hello Everyone, 5


Who is the baptism in the Holy Spirit for?

Acts 2:39, The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call.”

In order for the church to move forward, in an increasingly wicked world, it is crucial that we receive the anointing of the Spirit and POWER.

Pentecostal theologian, Dr. Wayde Goodall writes in his book, The Blessing:
“If your employer offered you a new tool to do your job with less physical effort but more excellence and precision, would you take advantage of that offer? If a friend told you of the availability of a new program that has a great ability to assist people in their efforts to be better husbands, wives, and parents, would you be interested in the program? How about an offer of some way to improve your Christian witness or multiply your efforts for God’s kingdom?
God has offered you a gift that will give you greater power than you could ever acquire naturally. Luke calls it ‘might power,’ and it will release the power of the Holy Spirit in your life.”

We need to understand:
This experience is for all believers.
The Baptism in the Holy Spirit is a Gift.
As a believer God’s Spirit already lives inside me.
And then ask the question am I open and receptive?

Two questions:
1. Have you received the gift of the Holy Spirit?

2. If you have been baptized in the Holy Spirit, what
are you doing with Him?

Oh How HE Loves Us!
