Re: Share Your Testimony About Holy Ghost Baptism by Hier(m): 9:25am On Jul 30, 2017 |
As time passed by, I started doing all manner of immoralty and this friend of mine who was a Christian would always come looking for me for some reason unknowing and annoying to me. I was in this habit of being spiritually active -as I rarely go to church in school- at home and I fall when I come back to school. But this friend would come to me, he was a class mate of mine, so he always know one or two things to say. At the end of semester, I got home and as school was about to resume. I know it would still be the normal normal. My mum would always give me this anointing oil which I would never touch through out the semester. I said to myself, seeing this friend of mine was spiritual active. I felt probably staying with him for the new session would keep me from going back to the mud. I always feel this void in me whenever I sin and I want to keep this peace I have at all cost. 1 Like 1 Share |

This friend eventually invited me to his church at our first meeting in school. He has noticed that I was posting some christian related post on facebook. He felt this was his chance. I got to the church, and I saw a congregation of about 15 people in a small venue. I was like, my former fellowships hall cell meetings have more people than here. Out of sympathy, I volunteer to join the church. After three sundays, the pastor of the student fellowship said she notice I don't speak in tongues. And I was like "I don't speak in tongues" and moreover, a class mate of mine once told me people do learn it. The next week at church, she said, she gave that friend of mine an assignment, to do and it concerns me. But one thing I don't seem to understand, I was with them during this evangelism and she was like, she likes my hand and wants to shake me. For my mind, I was thrown away #blushing. So she shook me, and she said the same thing again and shook me again, I was thinking to myself, this thin won dey too much ooooo. But I noticed, that as I was leaving our point of convergence for evangelism for my hostel. My eyes were dim. I didn't know what happened and I had too pull myself together, my eyes kept going dim, like I was feeling sleepy. I got to my room and slept off. I didn't know she was imparting me while she was shaking me. |

I kept asking this friend of mine, what the pastor told him, and I was like, I shouldn't worry. He was the strict type, so I didn't waste my time pressing him for more information, knowing he won't say anything. I kept wondering what it could be. Probably I did something and they want to correct me. One evening at about 11pm, he called me to this place where people pray on campus. I had to rush to the place as I kept wondering what it was again this time. I got to the place and he started asking questions as to, if I know what baptism of the Holy Ghost was and I said, no, he said one or two things. He said, when he starts praying for me, I should look inwardly and I would hear a voice speaking and whatever the voice says, I should repeat and vocalize. We started praying, and I would fall under power as he kept praying but I was never spoke anything. He kept telling me to search inside me, knowing fully well that by now, the voice should have been saying things to me. I was hearing this ba ba ba ba ba ba sound inside me, but I was like, the holy spirit can't be saying that. Then he told me, I am actully doubting the sound which happens to be the sound, so I decided I should say it out just to get confirmation from himn, and that was it. |

It was the first all night apart from cross over service I attend,i detested all nights but after much persuasion from a friend I went, I was newly invited to the church then and everything seemed strange and nice too. It was just worship all through after a little preaching by the pastor, we all held hands and lifted our voices to God and it was electrifying, no one was laying hands and there was no instrument and all of a sudden I opened my eyes and everyone was on the floor including me, I was totally perplexed because I always believed those things were staged, and I spoke in other tongues as the spirit gave utterance, I can't explain the feeling or experience but it was just amazing, I felt like a child lol and I ended praying in tongues through out that night,,,, that experience changed my whole life. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Re: Share Your Testimony About Holy Ghost Baptism by MadCow1: 10:41am On Jul 30, 2017 |
True Story.. I was like 12 or 14 at the time. I grew up in a very religious home. Pops was a Pastor (Not the church owner just one of the junior pastor that only controlled a house fellowship). I came from a home where we all woke up early to have morning devotion and everybody had their day to read an entire chapter and preach it to the whole house before school or breakfast. By the time I was in SS1, I had covered the entire Bible at least twice. All these things put together and I found myself as a Born again Christian. These things influenced me so much I was preaching to everyone, everywhere. In fact I was really good at it that I even started preaching at school morning devotion. My nickname became Pastor. So seeing how I was all into the Christian Game, Pops decided I should get baptised. So I was enrolled in the Baptism class. Attended the duration, wrote and aced the test and on the day of the water Baptism, the whole class was taken down to a river side all dressed in white and dipped in the water.. Yeah! Madcow was semi-official.. One more baptism and I was good to go. Holy Ghost Baptism required another class that lasted a week and at the weekend, we were all gathered in a room for the Holy Spirit Baptism. On the fateful day, the instructions were that we were to come fasting 2 days before (12 hours fast) pray fervently until the spirit came down. That we would all be overtaken by the spirit and that we would just loose control. The Spirit Baptism started like around 10am on that Sarturday. No long talk just prayers.. I have never prayed that long and hard before in my life. 1 hour into the prayers and I had run out of things to say.. But I just kept praying. Guys, by 1 am we were still praying without break. I was by this time struggling to keep up as I wondered WTF are these guys still saying to God for 3 hours. I was tired, hungry, weak and almlst delusional. Next thing Sister Rebecca (not her real name) just started talking in some funny Language. Rebbebebebebe, Rabababababa,.. The Biitch was rolling on the floor acting like a crackhead who just overdosed on cheap meth. The Pastor had started saying yes!! The Spirit has finally arrived. It seemed like it was the sign for all to enter Gear 5.. Bro Alfhonsus (again not his real name) went off o his own gibberish rants Toytatatatatatataya Hyundaidaidaidaidai.. Wow! I felt this shiit just got real yo! The Holy Spirit just entered the building. By this time, they were taking names of those who had started acting like this. I guess those were the ones that were now confirmed to th spirit filled. So spurred by everyone around now speaking in tongues one after the other, I pushed my tired body on and stařted praying even harder. Long story short. 30mins after Sister Rebecca kicked off this weird behaviour and speaking in tongues shiit, almost everyone in the room was doing the same except me. You couldn't understand a single word anybody on the room was saying.. It was just [/i]Kikikkikikikikiiii Bobobobobobo rararararaarara panapanapanapanapana I really didn't want to fake it, but after more than 4 hours of praying, it was clear to me that the Holy Spirit was not going to possess me. And mind You, I was actually a Born again. I was not sinning at all.. I had stopped stealing my mother's money, lying, taking meat from the pot, broke away from my squad in school and all that shiit. Now seeing as the whole room was now acting some type of way except me, I didn't want to be seen as the Biitchass in the room so I just started talking rubbish and shaking like a tambourine.. Seeing as I was the last to be possessed by the Holy spirit, the prayers finally ended, we were all congratulated on our Baptism and dismissed. As soon as I left the building, I backslided and I have never looked back. The Holy Spirit tried to embarrass a Nigga and I don't take that shiit lightly. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

MadCow1:You were not patient, and you were filled with self pride, and an evil spirit entered you instead for trying to deceive the people of God. Go back to God, He's very merciful, and He will enable you to live a fulfilling life in the Spirit. And deal with the pride of life, that was what hindered you initially. I pray that God brings you into the kingdom of His son, Jesus Christ again. Amen. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

chioma134: Actually, he is the only person that was honest among the whole group. The other people lied just to pass and I am sure today they are enjoying the fruits of their labor by exploiting gullible folks like you who believe such nonsense is real. It is all fake dear Madcow1, this goes to show that to become an atheist you need to have a conscience.

Haphard:One thing I know about the holy spirit is when you desire him, he will fill you up till overflow. Nothing is blocking you but yourself, let go of all those filthy lifestyles, seek him as if your life depends on it and watch yourself transcend beyond your imagination. You have not lost your gift, u just have to rekindle the fire. Av u listened to fill me up and for ur glory by tasha combs?. Dos songs should be on repeat in your music player... lol. 1 Like |
Re: Share Your Testimony About Holy Ghost Baptism by Donaldomo(m): 3:58pm On Jul 30, 2017 |
MY EXPERIENCE! If ever there is something a Christian should desire, it should be the Baptism of the Holy Ghost. I grew up in Deeper Life. I have heard & prayed much about it but never got Baptised. At a time, I got discouraged about the whole thing. However, my thoughts & conclusion received a blow when I got the experience in August 2008. I attended a program organised for those who wanted to be baptized in the HolyGhost in a church in Oshodi, Lagos. After the program, there was a laying on of hands. Some people started speaking in tongues right immediately hand was laid on them. But for me, there was nothing. I did not doubt God, yet there was no evidence of Baptism. But 3 days later, I woke early morning to have my devotion. Then suddenly, I started speaking a language I did not understand and learn. I tried to control it. Immediately it dawned on me that the experience is here. The experience is great, awesome and real. It is not learnt or taught. It is auction to function for God. Don't be deceived, it is not a hoarse or a gimmick. It is the comforter Himself in you. God bless you! 5 Likes |

Emusan: This ERROR (so-called Baptism of the Holy Ghost) is so much the vogue in Nigeria the writers are unaware what they are describing here as baptism of the Holy Ghost is actually demon possession! This erroneous and wicked teaching arose from the occultic movement of Azusa Street. This has now given rise to satanic churches and ministries founded on the psychic teachings of Christian Science, Religious Science and name-it-and-claim-it doctrines of the Word of Faith, Prosperity and Dominion ministers. Check www.thetruechristianfaith.com The site will help you get the correct definition of the phrase now turned way beyond anything anyone can find in the Bible. The Christianity of Word of Faith and Prosperity Doctrine is fake: religious ideas emanating from it are mostly satanic. The notion of the Baptism of the Holy Ghost being discussed here is one of them. I recommend the following article titled The Beautiful Side Of Evil for a start: www.thetruechristianfaith.com/2016/12/06/the-beautiful-side-of-evil/ |

When hear about the baptism of the Holyspirit alot of questions arise in my mind and am always quite troubles because i truly want to be a partaker. Firstly, whats the criteria of been baptized by the Holyghost. Secondly, can you have the holyspirit and not be giftes with the speaking of tongues. Am quite sure ive given my life to christ. Though sometimes i doubt myself and even pray for a sign that am truly saved. When i pray at times i fill an electric or shivering in my spirit that i cant control a wonderful feeling too. But i get totally confused about myself when i hear people speak in tongues and am just there saying my prayers from my heart to God. Please I nees help as I dont want to deceive myself and i want to grow in christ in truth and in spirit. |
