If we are to successfully claim our spiritual inheritance, we must do so in the power of the Holy Spirit. There are multitudes of people around the world who have not yet heard the Name of Jesus. We will never change this fact unless we face it as it is.
It is time to stop traveling down the same ruts of spiritual harvest we have been in for the past hundreds of years of Christianity. We must face the situation as it is and receive a new revelation if we are to get the job done.
One of the problems is that many believers have missed one of the greatest truths Jesus ever taught. They know the Scriptures and can quote many passages by heart. But they have overlooked or rejected a vital truth that has to do with the promise of the Holy Spirit. It is clear from the Scriptures that God intended the power of the Holy Spirit to be your greatest spiritual resource in reaching the world.
The Baptism of the Holy Spirit is much more than a charismatic outpouring. It is more than what is being experienced in traditional Pentecostal churches. There is more to Pentecost than just speaking in tongues. There is an experience of supernatural power!
You may know doctrine, and that is good to keep your theology straight. But head knowledge of doctrine will not give you the power to cast out demons, deliver addicts, and heal the sick. You must have an experience of power. When you have experienced the burning bush like Moses did, it is no problem to face Pharaoh and declare, “Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, let My people go!”
Before receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit, Peter denied the Lord. He and all of the disciples abandoned Christ in the face of adversity. But after the Pentecostal experience recorded in Acts 2, they preached powerful messages, healed the sick, delivered the demonized, and turned the then-known world upside down.
The real power of the Holy Spirit is more than just blessings. It is more than singing, shouting, and dancing. It is more than speaking in tongues. It is the demonstration of power! Determine right now that you will move beyond the blessings into the realm of power.
When you have had an experience with God, you can face any challenge. You can face sickness. You can face demons. You can confront evil. You can face any negative circumstance and emerge victorious because you have had an experience. Not theory. Not just theology. An experience! And a man with an experience is never at the mercy of one who has only an argument.
PRAYER:
My FATHER, My God, this year let my life reflect the blessing of the Lord, I shall not be static, I decree PROGRESS, FAVOR, HONOR, AND INFLUENCE are my portion. My life is SALTED, My speech is SALTED, My Home and Business are SALTED in the name of Jesus.
