THE MIGHTY WIND

Is it really possible that the Holy Spirit can totally change us? Absolutely. If the Lord could turn mud into man as He breathed the breath of life into man, imagine what He can do by breathing on us again! That is what happened at Pentecost.

“And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.” (Acts 2:2)

Those who gathered in the upper room on the Day of Pentecost felt the breath of almighty God. And as it blew gently upon them, they were transformed. When the Holy Spirit empowers your life, you can expect three things to happen:

1. The Lord will become very close to you.
2. Because of that relationship, your ultimate desire will be to walk in the ways of God.
3. You will be miraculously transformed into a new person.

I am convinced that the Holy Spirit, alive and present on the earth today, is the sign of the covenant God has made with us through the blood of His Son Jesus.

God will fill your life with the fire and glory of His Holy Spirit when you come to Him through the blood. In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise. (Ephesians 1:13)

I have met many people who pray, “Lord, send the Holy Spirit upon my life! Fill me with Your power!” The Holy Spirit will come when we honor the death of Jesus Christ and His blood.

For example, in the Old Covenant when blood was offered, God sent fire, and His glory descended. Do you remember what occurred at the dedication of Solomon’s great temple?

When Solomon had finished praying, fire came down from heaven and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices; and the glory of the Lord filled the temple. (2 Chronicles 7:1)

What was the sign of the Holy Spirit? In the Old Testament it was often fire (Lev. 9:23-24; 1 Kings 18:38; 2 Chron. 7:1) representing God’s all-consuming holiness.

John the Baptist also prophesied:

“I indeed baptize you with water; but One mightier than I is coming, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to loose. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.” (Luke 3:16)

After Jesus shed His blood at Calvary, the Holy Spirit came as fire again. The disciples were gathered together in Jerusalem, as Jesus had commanded:

Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit. (Acts 2:3-4)

God will fill your life with the fire and glory of His Holy Spirit when you come to Him through the blood.

Andrew Murray, a prolific Christian author who lived from 1828 to 1917, wrote about the relationship between Jesus’ blood and the Holy Spirit in his book The Power of the Blood.

Where the blood is honored in faith or preaching, there the Spirit works; and where He works He always leads souls to the blood.

CAR AIR CONDITION, WHEN IT BECOMES DEADLY

No wonder more folks are dying from cancer than ever before. We wonder where this stuff comes from, but here is an example that explains a lot of the cancer-causing incidents. Many people are in their cars first thing in the morning and the last thing at night, seven days a week. As I read this, it makes me feel guilty and ill. Please pass this on to as many people as possible. Guess it's not too late to make some changes. Please do NOT turn on A/C as soon as you enter the car. Open the windows after you enter your car and turn ON the AC after a couple of minutes. Here's why: According to research, the car dashboard, sofa and air freshener emit Benzene, a cancer-causing toxin (carcinogen) . Take time to observe the smell of heated plastic in your car. In addition to causing cancer, Benzene poisons your bones, causes anaemia and reduces white blood cells. Prolonged exposure will cause leukaemia, increasing the risk of cancer. It can also cause miscarriage. Acceptable Benz...

What Parents Needs To Know

It might interest you to know that people take time to learn everything about everything except important things . we have people who go through the university​ for four to five years studying about animals and other things but n when you mention  parenting, people just go about it casually. Note these: ⚡ Parenting is a big responsibility . ⚡ Parents are foundations and pillars of a nation . ( greed, revenge, indiscipline among young folks, etc  that we are facing in our nation today are traceable to bad parenting) Parents actually determine the structure of a nation as such i think parents should be taught how to parent children. ⚡Parents are teachers and role model (where you like it or not children around you are actually looking up to you, they copy your actions and try to be like you and therefore you must be a positive example) Some parents should be held responsible for the misbehaviors of their children. Many parents are careles...

Technology has recreated and redefined our world, Without doubt technology has helped man in every area of life, therefore we can't under rate the Benefits of Technology. Technology is good. In  medicine, sports, communication, security and other areas of man's  life technology has made things easy. You can now communicate with your relatives that are far away with your handsets instead of travelling the long Journey. Technology is indeed very Good.     However the abuse of technology has led to many disastrous occurrences.  We have everything  we want,  but what we really need has been taken away. We pay so much attention to our phones and at the same time paying little or no attention to other areas of our lives.  We find it difficult to switch off our phones in church,  we chat during service in church,  we chat while walking on the road all these is a a result of the worms of technology. Technology has taken lots of our...
