Acts 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

Psalms 48:1-2 Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised in the city of our God, in the mountain of his holiness.
Beautiful for situation, the joy of the whole earth, is mount Zion, on the sides of the north, the city of the great King.

What can separate us from the love of Christ? Nothing!
Romans 8: 35-39

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or unclothedness, or peril, or sword?
As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.
For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

In the year c.AD33, ten days after Jesus ascended into heaven, and 50 days after his resurrection, One hundred and twenty (120) disciples of Jesus gathered and awaited the promise. Jesus had told then that they would receive power--power to be witnesses of Jesus to the world, to heal the sick, to raise the dead, to overcome the devil, to bring joy into the lives of men, to show the love of the Father, to show men the way to eternal life. Yes, they awaited the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of the Most High God.

Acts 1: 8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

As they waited, truly, the Holy Ghost came down as seen in the lovely passage below:

And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. Acts 2: 2-4

The disciples received power and they began spreading out as witnesses of Jesus. This was the beginning of the Church of Christ.

Who is the Holy Spirit and why do we need the Holy Spirit? The Holy Spirit is not a force or wind or fire. The Holy Spirit is a person. He is the Spirit of God. He is God the Spirit. He is God inside of believers. He enables us to live in God and dwell in His presence.

Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Matthew 28:19

The Holy Spirit quickens men to accomplish great feats in life. When the Holy Spirit arrives, the glory of God arrives. And we know that with the glory of God, great and beautiful things happen in the lives of men. There are several cases in both the Old and New Testament in which we see the power of the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit is powerfully important in the life of a man. Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, asked John the Baptist to baptize him. And immediately afterwards, the Spirit of God, the Holy Spirit, came down in the form of a dove and God spoke from heaven. "This is my beloveth Son in whom I am well pleased. Hear ye him" Matthew 3: 16-17

When the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of God, came upon Samson, he tore a lion apart, he broke the bands tied around him and he killed 1000 philistines with the jawbone of a donkey! Judges 15: 14-15 How powerful is the Holy Spirit.

It is sweet to have the Holy Spirit. The life of a man is perfect with the Holy Spirit. There are Seven Gifts of the Holy Spirit (Isaiah 11: 1-2): Wisdom, Understanding, Counsel (ability to judge how best to act), Fortitude(boldness or courage), Knowledge, Piety (total submission to God), and Fear of God. Also, there are Nine Fruits of the Holy Spirit (Galatians 5: 22-23: Love, Joy, Peace, Longsuffering(Patience), Gentleness, Goodness, Faith, Meekness, Temperance (Sel-control). As we can observe, the Holy Spirit in a man or woman makes their life amazing and perfect.

In conclusion, the Holy Spirit is God in us. The Holy Spirit is the Glory of God in me! He is the Light of God in you. He is God is anyone who invites God into their life. He dwells in anyone who accepts Jesus and confesses Jesus as their Lord and Savior. With the Holy Spirit, our lives are exceptional and we are certain that we will reign with Christ on the last day in the Kingdom of God.

Come Holy Spirit. Come. Amen.

Psalms 19:1-4 The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.
There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.
Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,

John 11:40 Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?

and great our rejoicing through Jesus the Son;

our wonder, our transport, when Jesus we see

As we put God first in our lives, we will continue to find grace and favour in the sight of God.

Genesis 6:8-9 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.
These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.

There is Power in the Blood of JESUS

Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: 1 Peter 1: 18,19

Revelation 5:11-12 And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;
Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.

Happy Sunday to all of us.



Revelation 5:13 And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.

Glory Glory I will sing.
I will sing praise to my God
He has done so much for me
My God is good
He is worthy of praise.
