Today is Pentecost Sunday. Pentecost is the celebration of the coming of the Holy Spirit and the release of His power upon believers (Acts 2:33). The Holy Spirit has been here ever since for believers to receive.
“But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” Acts 1:8
Baptism with the Holy Spirit means immersion or in-filling with the Spirit’s life and power, and Jesus is the one baptizing. It is for believers only and empowers us for service to reproduce Jesus’ ministry, including signs, wonders, and miracles!
We receive baptism with the Holy Spirit by faith. The Bible reveals different ways that people receive the baptism with the Holy Spirit, i.e., by asking, by prayer, by laying on of hands, etc. (Luke 11:9-13; Acts 8:14-17; 10:44-46; 19:6).
We see in Acts 2:1-4 that baptism with the Holy Spirit brought the initial evidence of speaking in tongues unto God (a heavenly language or language unknown to the one speaking) followed by boldness (Acts 4:13, 31).
If you would like to receive the fullness of God through baptism with the Holy Spirit, pray this prayer out loud.
Lord Jesus,
I ask you to baptize me with the Holy Spirit. I fully expect to receive by faith power from on high and to speak with other tongues as the Holy Spirit enables me to speak. Thank you for pouring the Holy Spirit upon me and immersing me in Him.
In Your name, I pray, Amen
Perhaps you have never received Jesus as your Lord and Savior. But, if you have not received God’s love, peace, and reconciliation through the blood of Jesus and have a personal relationship with His Son, Jesus Christ, you can do that right now. If you would like to receive Jesus as your Savior, then pray this prayer out loud in faith:
Heavenly Father,
Your Word says that whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. I ask You to forgive me for my sins. I repent and want to turn from them and turn to You. I am calling on You and asking Jesus to come into my heart and be Lord over my life. I believe Jesus died on the cross and shed His blood for me. I believe in my heart that You raised Him from the dead, and He is alive today. Thank you for forgiving my sins and giving me the Holy Spirit to live inside me. Fill and baptize me with Your Holy Spirit and healing power in my life. I now belong to You. Help me to live for You and obey You every day of my life.
In the name of Jesus, Amen.
If you prayed for salvation in faith, you are now a child of God and are in His family (John 1:12). Go to my website and check out some steps to grow in your relationship with Him! https://alexiscarucci.com/welcome-to-gods-family/
Revival is beginning. God is doing something great on the earth and wants us to partner with Him and do exploits through us.
Abundant Blessings!
