We don't give enough attention to the Holy Spirit and His purpose for existence but thankfully, this little devotional will put a small dent into why He is around and maybe, just maybe, will cause a fire to grow inside us to find out more about Him.
God Bless.
Here is the miracle of the Holy Spirit...
I love the feast of Pentecost. On this day, several miracles took place, miracles that God also desires to accomplish in your life! The Holy Spirit came according to Jesus’s promise. (see Acts 1:8) He always keeps His promises. Persevere in trusting God’s promises because they will come to pass! If the promise tarries, it will surely come, the Bible says. (see Habakkuk 2:3) A violent wind was heard, and it filled the house where they were gathered together. The wind of the Spirit is blowing on your life today! Tongues of fire touched down upon each of the disciples. I believe that the Holy Spirit is lighting a new fire in your life! They were all filled with the Holy Spirit. Because you are a child of God, His Spirit already lives in you. But He also desires to fill you and make you overflow.
The promise is for you! They spoke in languages that they didn’t know. The Spirit can give you the gift of speaking in new tongues and you will accomplish things that you’ve never done before! Peter preached the Gospel with great boldness. The Spirit gives you boldness to be His witness! (see Acts 1:8) God has not given us a spirit of fear. (see 2 Timothy 1:7) People understood the message. They heard the wonderful works of God in their own language! God desires to use your life to make the marvelous message of the Gospel understandable to those around you. 3,000 people were baptized that day. Yes, by the power of the Holy Spirit acting in you, God can do with your life exceedingly abundantly above all you can ask or think! (see Ephesians 3:20) Today, the miracle of Pentecost is for you! I invite you to pray with me: “Holy Spirit, I sense Your wind blowing on my life today. I want to overflow with You! I desire all of the good gifts You want to give me. I ask You to baptize me with Your Spirit...I ask for the gift of speaking in tongues today! Thank You for increasing my boldness in proclaiming Your Word. I invite You to do in my life exceedingly abundantly above all I can ask or think! In Jesus’s Name, amen.” Thanks for existing!
