He That Dwells In the Secret Place of the Most High Shall Abide Under the Shadow of the Almighty.- Part 1541

JESUS went in and out among His disciples for a period of forty days and nights showing Himself alive by many infallible proofs. At the same time, Jesus spoke of the things pertaining to the Kingdom of God. After this time, Jesus ascended during which time He continued to communicate with His disciples through the Holy Ghost. (Acts 1:2-3)

But as we read in the scriptures, JESUS, prior to His ascent commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem. In fact, He told His disciples to tarry/wait there at Jerusalem until they receive the promised baptism of the Spirit of God!

Similarly, JESUS said to them John (the Baptist) truly baptized with water but you shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost!

JESUS further stated that they would be endued with power, resulting from the Holy Ghost coming upon them/you. It will be at this point that they/you shall be His witnesses here and beyond - even to the very uttermost parts of the earth.

So the disciples as instructed by their Lord waited at Jerusalem. 10 days they waited. Then, all of a sudden they heard a sound like a strong rushing wind. The sound seemed to be everywhere. As they sat there, tongues began to move uncontrollably as if the people were on fire. As recorded in Acts 2, this uncontrollable experience happened to 120 persons who were gathered together.

What was happening? The 120 persons were all filled with the Holy Ghost and began to speak with other tongues as the Spirit moved upon them. Indeed, they just kept speaking in tongues. All of this was in order to fulfill the prophetic scriptures in Joel which states, "And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out My Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions." (Joel 2:28) Yes, even upon those who are servants and upon handmaids will I will pour out My Spirit causing them to prophesy - saith the Lord.

Even more so, He said that He will show wonders in the heavens and signs in the earth. Strange happenings will occur - blood, fire, and vapour of smoke. At this time, the sun shall be darkened and the moon turned into blood. All of these wonders appearing before the great and notable day of the Lord's coming!

In these days, saith the scriptures, it shall come to pass that whosoever shall call upon the Name of the Lord Jesus shall be saved! Don't delay because today is the day of salvation. Today is the day that the Lord hath made for you.

Please read Acts chapter 2. Commit your life to the Lord so that God can pour out of His Spirit upon you too! Stand in the Offering Plate.
