New Life in Christ - New Walk in the Holy Spirit |
“God wants to save and heal,”
said Pastor Allan as he began to minister.
The hearts of the world are hardened by sin, and because of their
hardness, often curses are passed down and carried to the next of their
flesh. Many are bound because of being
born into poverty, alcohol, drugs and perversion, as were some of you today.
However, God knew you even
before you were born and has made a way for freedom. We are here today to reach out and receive
all that God desires for us.
Earthly parents want the best
for their children, and our heavenly Father has good plans for you.
In the beginning man was
created for fellowship with God. Adam
and Eve broke that fellowship. Through
Jesus Christ provision for fellowship with God is restored by the Holy Spirit. Jesus was a Jew and all history was lined up to fulfill his
coming and all that followed.
Some wonder who or what is
the Holy Spirit? Father, Son and Holy
Spirit. In the Father God’s plan, He
sent Jesus to be the sacrificial Lamb.
It is the Holy Spirit who enters our heart and releases us from
sin. We can now fellowship with the
Father, Jesus and the Holy Spirit.
Don’t be scared or afraid of
the Holy Ghost, because it is through Him come miracles and healings. Holy Spirit You are Welcome in This Place.
Fire is associated with the
Holy Spirit at Pentecost when those in the upper room were baptized. On earth, the Holy Spirit took over the
ministry of Christ Jesus through believers.
Peter quoted the Prophet saying, “Your sons and daughters shall prophesy
and old men will dream and have visions.
John also prophesied, “I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he
that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear:
he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:
This Holy Spirit was promised
by Jesus in Acts 1:8. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come
upon you, and you will be my witnesses
Pastor Allan
stated that his vision for this church is to build up and ground individuals in
both the Word and Holy Spirit to become an army ready to step out into our city
and world. We must have the power of the
Holy Spirit to fight the battles ahead.
Supernatural
events should be happening everyday. All
we need to do is walk uprightly and be obedient. The Holy Spirit reverses who you once
were. You are not that same person who
lied, cheated and did worse.
The mainline
church today is not comfortable with the Holy Spirit. You have heard old time stories about a move
of God and those “Holy Rollers.” We talk
about the good old days, but we are now looking forward to something
greater.
The flesh cannot inherit God’s way;
we must be walking in the Spirit. The
Word says we can judge by their fruit.
Do they have love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
gentleness and self-control?
Babies may not
have these attributes, but as we grow up in Christ we mature.
Always be
sensitive to the Holy Spirit. He is a
gentleman and is easily grieved. Be open
to listen, receive and obey.
The Holy Spirit
desires that we walk in revival every day of our lives. Revival is walking in the Spirit 24/7. The
latter rain is coming. We already see just a
sprinkle, but there will soon be a flood over this region.
Thank you Father
God for the change you are making in lives today.
Thank you Jesus for your shed blood and your
resurrection power.
Thank you Holy
Spirit for the Boldness and direction you give as we walk 24/7 in your
presence.

Excellent! Thanks for the recap!
Blessed Trinity! I do believe we have a work to do in our world and we can only find success in God our Father, Jesus the Son of God and the guidance of the Holy Spirit. An army of three to help us be light and salt.
Healing and saving. Truth!
Good word, sister. The power that created all that we grasp with our senses lives within us… I'm amazed daily…
I'm significantly relying on the Holy Spirit at this stretch of time. With the sinfulness of our world increasing, all we can count on to pour out protection around and about us is the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Thank you for sharing.
