EXPERIENCE JESUS EVERY DAY Holy Spirit Baptism and Indwelling


Many believers seek the baptism in the
Holy Spirit as a token and guarantee of salvation. They hear about
the experience that others had when they received the baptism in the
Holy Spirit and they desire it for themselves also. They also desire
the ability to speak in tongues, as those do that have received the
Holy Spirit baptism. What many do not understand is that the Baptism
in the Holy Spirit is promised to ALL who wish to follow Jesus, not
just as a once off experience but the Indwelling of the Spirit with
subsequent manifestations of the Holy Spirit in and through them.
We read the words of Peter on the day
of Pentecost in Acts 2:38,39 Peter said
to
them, “Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus
Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the
gift of the Holy Spirit. 
39“For
the promise is for you and your children and for ALL, who are far
off, as many as the Lord our God will call to Himself.”
The people did not understand what was
happening when the Holy Spirit was given and Peter explained it to
them. Acts 2:15-21“For
these men are not drunk, as you suppose, for it is only the
third hour of the day; 16but
this is what was spoken of through the prophet Joel:
      17‘AND
IT SHALL BE IN THE LAST DAYS,’ God says,
            ‘THAT I WILL
POUR FORTH OF MY SPIRIT ON ALL MANKIND;
            AND
YOUR SONS AND YOUR DAUGHTERS SHALL PROPHESY,
            AND
YOUR YOUNG MEN SHALL SEE VISIONS,
            AND
YOUR OLD MEN SHALL DREAM DREAMS;
      18EVEN
ON MY BONDSLAVES, BOTH MEN AND WOMEN,
            I WILL
IN THOSE DAYS POUR FORTH OF MY SPIRIT
            And
they shall prophesy.
      19‘AND I WILL
GRANT WONDERS IN THE SKY ABOVE
            AND
SIGNS ON THE EARTH BELOW,
            BLOOD, AND
FIRE, AND VAPOR OF SMOKE.
      20‘THE
SUN WILL BE TURNED INTO DARKNESS
            AND
THE MOON INTO BLOOD,
            BEFORE
THE GREAT AND GLORIOUS DAY OF THE LORD SHALL COME.
      21‘AND
IT SHALL BE THAT EVERYONE WHO CALLS ON THE NAME OF THE LORD
WILL BE SAVED.’


When Jesus gave His disciples the Great
Commission prior to ascending to heaven He told them about the signs
that would follow, the manifestations of the Holy Spirit that those
would experience who obey the gospel. We read in Mark 16:15-18. “And
He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to
all creation. 
16“He
who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has
disbelieved shall be condemned. 
17“These
signs will accompany those who have believed: in My name they will
cast out demons, they will speak with new tongues; 
18they
will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly 
poison, it
will not hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will
recover.”
Those who believe
and obey the gospel of Jesus will experience Him every day, if they
stay with Him and keep following and obeying Him. The signs that
Jesus spoke about will follow them. They will speak in new tongues,
lay their hands on the sick and they will recover, cast our demons,
prophesy, see visions and dream dreams. The Holy Spirit baptism
should not be a once off occurrence where the believer speaks in
tongues and then walks away. We can only experience Jesus and bear
fruit for His kingdom if we stay with Him, walk with Him, every day.
Do not just seek for an experience.
Seek Jesus. Obey and follow Him and you will experience Him every
day.
May Jesus bless you.

You Will Have No Excuse On Judgment Day



God has written His laws in the hearts of all men. We all have a conscience. We all know right from wrong.

God will judge all men according to their deeds. There will be no exception. Those who repent, turn from their evil ways and obey the voice of God speaking in their heart, will find mercy. To those who seek the truth God will reveal Himself in Jesus Christ.

The Holy Spirit convicts the whole world of sin, righteousness and judgment, but few listen and take heed and that is why they will perish. People are evil. They accept and go after evil. They listen to demons and reject the voice of their own conscience as well as the  conviction of the Holy Spirit. On judgment day they will have two witnesses testifying against them, their own conscience and the Holy Spirit.

If we obey our conscience, we will do good, not evil. If we obey the Holy Spirit of God and seek the Truth, the Holy Spirit will reveal Jesus to us and He will guide us into all truth.

God has revealed Himself to mankind in many ways, through our conscience, through creation, through nature, He has spoken through holy men and prophets. He revealed Himself through Jesus Christ, who did many miracles, was rejected, crucified, and resurrected to die no more. The dealings of God with man were recorded by men and were included in the Bible, that is freely available to most of the world. God also gave His Holy Spirit to convict the whole world, and guide those who seek the truth, into the whole truth.

Most people are evil and selfish. They seek their own desires at all cost and reject the truth. That is why they will be condemned and cast into eternal punishment and torment in damnation.

Jesus Christ is the only way, life and truth and the Holy Spirit will reveal Jesus to us if we seek the truth. Nobody will have any excuse on judgment day.

Today is the day of salvation. Seek Jesus today. Repent from all evil, stop sinning and obey the words of Jesus as recorded in the gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Repent and be baptized as Jesus commanded, seek Him with all your heart and He will give His Holy Spirit in you to teach and guide you into all truth. Obey Him and stay with Him until the end, then you will do right and He will give you eternal life.

May Jesus bless you.

Follow Jesus EVERY Day



To be a Christian means to
be a follower of Jesus Christ, not just a believer. We can only
follow Jesus if we experience Him for real. Those who are born again
of the Spirit of God experienced Jesus Christ in their spirit,
because those who are being led by the Spirit of God they are the
children of God. Many people believe in Jesus but they do not follow
Him. They cannot follow Him because they are not born again.
If we believe in Jesus
Christ and we obey His words, His commands; if we repent and we are
baptized in water, then we are born again and we experience Jesus. We
hear His voice and we see Hs kingdom in our spirit. Our spirit is
brought to life because God is spirit and we can only have communion
with Him in the spirit. The person who is not born again of the
Spirit of God cannot understand the things of God, cannot understand
the kingdom of God, He cannot see the kingdom of God and He does not
experience Jesus.
Many believers are not
born again. They read the scriptures and they try to live according
to the scriptures but they are not born again. At heart they are
sinners, at heart they are enemies of God because they have never
submitted themselves to Jesus. They have never become real in their
relationship with Him. They do not know Him. Many of them are Bible
teachers, and preachers, but they have no relationship with Jesus and
they cannot follow Him because they do not know Him. You cannot
follow Jesus from a book of rules, from reading the Bible, and
listening to other people, you need to be led by the Spirit of God.
Jesus gives his spirit in those who obey His gospel, His words, those
who are serious with Him, those who truly believe and those who seek
His guidance, those who seek Him for real. He manifests Himself to
them. They hear His voice in their spirit, they serve Him in their
spirit, and only they can follow Jesus Christ. We have to follow
Jesus Christ every day until the very end to enter His kingdom. If we
are not born again of the Spirit of God we cannot experience Jesus,
we cannot follow Him. We need to have that born-again experience,
where our spirit becomes alive to the Spirit of God so that we can
have communion with God, and we only get that experience when we
humble ourselves before Jesus, and we repent, obey His words, are
baptized in water. He will reveal Himself to us if we obey Him. He
will come and live in us and with us. He will guide us and He will
teach us and we must follow Him every day until the very end. Those
who are being led by the Spirit of God they are the children of God.
Are you a child of God?
Are you being led by the Spirit of God? Do you know Jesus Christ for
real? Do you follow and obey Him every day?
May Jesus bless you.

Glad Day When I Was Born Again




It was a wonderful day when I was born again, when Jesus came into my life and He changed me. He made me NEW inside. He made me a different person. I said:”Lord, please make me ONE MAN that you are pleased with all the time.” Because I used to have so many personalities, at work I was one person, with the family I was another person, with friends I was another person, and then when my wife dragged me to church I would be another person. But Jesus changed me into ONE PERSON, that person that He can be pleased with all the time.
It was a GLAD DAY when I was born again:

(D)Glad day, when (G)I was Born A(D)gain
Glad day, when I was Born A(A)gain
(D)Glad day, when (G)I was Born A(D)gain
It was a glad day, when I(A) was Born A(D)gain

(D)The sins I used to do, I (G)do them no (D)more
The sins I used to do, I do them no (A)more
(D)The sins I used to do, I (G)do them no (D)more
It was a glad day, when I(A) was Born A(D)gain


Have you been born again? Did that glad day come to your life? Have you been changed so that you have no more desire for the things of this world? Do you have a desire and a zeal for the Kingdom of God? You can only SEE the Kingdom of God if you are BORN AGAIN. Do you SEE that Kingdom of God? Is Jesus your KING and are you SERVING HIM?
May Jesus bless you.
