WHY SHOULD A BELIEVER BE FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT?

Dear treasure friend,
Grace and peace be multiplied upon you in abundance in Jesus name. Amen!
After you make Jesus lord of your life, it is the will of God that you experience the fullness of the Holy Spirit. Ephesians 5:18 says, “and be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Holy Spirit’s”. It is the Holy Spirit’s ministry not only to impact the nature of God to the holy spirit of man at salvation, but to come and live in the new creature. His job is to receive the exact knowledge of God from the heart of the Father. A believer cannot understand, by his own spirit alone, the profound wisdom of God. This is why Jesus said in John 14:26 that the Father would send us the comforter to teach us “all things”.

When you receive the Holy Spirit, you receive the ability of God. Acts 1:8 says, “But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you”. The word power In that verse is translated dunamis, which means ability and might. It is through the energizing force of the Holy Spirit living in us that we are transformed into effective witnesses. So, to be born again and not filled with the Holy Spirit is like being on aeroplane without a compass.

The ability you receive to pray with your spirit when you are baptized in the Holy Spirit is powerful. It edifies and builds up your spirit man and puts you in contact with the deep things of God (2 Corinthians 14:4, 2:10). It also allows you to pray God’s perfect will apart from your natural understanding and aids you in interceding for others (Romans 8:26-27).
And according to Jude 1:20-21, praying in the spirit strengthens and intensifies your personal relationship with God.

We care about you,

HOW CAN I RECEIVE THE BAPTISM IN THE HOLY SPIRIT?

Dear treasure friend,
Grace and peace be showered upon you in abundance in Jesus name. The promise of receiving the Holy Spirit is for everyone in the body of Christ because God gave His Spirit to the church on the day of Pentecost (Acts 2:33, 39). As a partaker of your covenant with God, however, you must individually receive what He has given you.

When you ask for the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, the word of God promises you shall receive. Luke 11:9-13 says, “And I say unto you, ask, and it shall be given you; seek and ye shall find; knock and it shall be opened unto you. For everyone that asketh, recieveth; and he that seeketh findeth: and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? ..... Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion? … if ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?”.
In the Bible, when believers received the Holy Spirit, they began to speak in a heavenly language. Acts 2:4 says “And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance”. This is still true today. When you accept the Spirit’s indwelling, your Spirit will immediately have a desire to express itself in praise to God. The Holy Spirit will give utterance through you as you give Him permission.

When you pray in tongues, you are praying in the Spirit. You are letting the Holy Spirit pray through your spirit. The amplified Bible says in 1 Corinthians 14:14, “My Spirit (by the Holy Spirit within me ) prays…” Just as English is the voice of your mind, your prayer language is the voice of your spirit.

If you desire the infilling of the Holy Spirit or if you are unsure whether you have received it, say the prayer below:
“Father, I am a new creature in Christ Jesus. Fill me with your Holy Spirit to enable me to be a powerful witness of Jesus. I believe I now receive the Holy Spirit just as the disciples did on the day of Pentecost. Hallelujah!

We care about you.

IT IS TIME TO MAKE A FRESH START!

Dear Treasured friend,
Grace and peace be multiplied upon you in abundance in Jesus name! Fulfilling your destiny is extremely important. In fulfilling your destiny in life, your responsibility is to speak to your plans, dreams and desires that seems empty and dead. Refuse to give in to feelings of hopelessness and despair.

It is time to build your hope life via God’s word. Hope is stronger than doubt. It lifts you above what you can see in natural realm. Hope sees a positive future and a great God who is able to do all thing.
Open your mouth now and speak something positive about your future. Talk about the possibilities more than the problems. Hope means confident expectation. What are you expecting?
It’s going to be an existing period for you because God has great things in His plan for your life! He is leaving towards you with favour. I want to encourage you now to take an inventory of your life and prune anything that’s not bearing fruit. There are many things we become entangled in that simply take our time and produce nothing of value. IT IS TIME TO MAKE A FRESH START. The scripture says
“…Do not cling to events of the past or dwell on what happened long ago. Watch for the new I am going to do. It is happening already- you can see it now”
(Isaiah 43:18-19 GNT).

This is the best time to get your life, business, ministry, and house in order, reorganize your life, and prepare for promotions. God is progressive, and it is His plan that we grow continually in al things. Perhaps your life is already blessed-but you can be blessed more, which will enable to be a greater blessing.
Friend, if you are in great need of blessings, encouragement, and a fresh start, now is your season for breakthrough.
If you have had a season of trials in your life, I am encouraging you to overcome discouragement. If you have been disappoint, shake it off and get re-appointment- God has a fresh new plan. Perhaps you have been hurt or rejected by someone, and your mind has been poisoned with bitterness. Forgiving others is the fresh start you need. When we forgive those who have hurt us, we a doing ourselves a much bigger favour than we are doing for them.
Why spend your life being miserable while the one who hurts you may be having good time, not even knowing or caring that you are hurting? Shake those things off and go on.
You may have slipped into a state of feeling that you just can’t go on-that life is just too hard. Hear me as I encourage you that, YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU NEED TO DO because God is on your side. Hallelujah!
“… In view of all this, what can we say? If God is for us. Who can be against us? (Romans 8:31 GNT).
God developed a plan for you before He laid the foundation of the world. Satan may have damaged that plan, but he can’t destroy it, though delayed. You can still become the person God intended you to be! You fit into His plan, you are here for such a time as this, and fulfilling your destiny is extremely important.
The Apostle Paul said, “He was determined to press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus died, forgetting the past and straining forward to win the prize” (see Philippians 3:12-14). I have always loved these verses of the scripture and been challenged by them. I think Jesus died for you and me for a specific purpose! I believe we should discover what it is and press into the fullness of His will, don’t you? Don’t let the devil win! ARISE AND MAKE A FRESH START!.
Real bible hope is a God-ordained dream. So build yourself a dream from the scripture and start rejoicing over it. Hallelujah!

We love and care about you

NEW BIRTH CONNECTS YOU TO A SUPERNATURAL SOURCE.

Dear Treasured friend,

Grace and Peace be showered upon you in abundance in Jesus name! You are born of God, and everyone born of God is born a star, and by destiny a child of Exploits.

You are not born again to suffer again; you are born again to reign again. And I am glad to announce to you that the best of life is in Christ. New birth connects you to a supernatural sources, a divine root, so that whatever God is worth becomes your worth.

As a child of God you are destined to shine on the earth, and it must sink deep into your mind that you are created to be a star, a pace-setter in your generation, a guiding light to those in darkness, an impact maker, design to succeed where others fail, and conquer the obstacles others fear.

I read in one of Kenneth Hagin’s monthly magazines some couple of years ago, a story appearing in the news that shocked people throughout the nation of America as we read. A seventy one year old woman, who weighed only 50 pounds and had begged door to door for food, died of malnutrition in a nursing home after spending the last few days of her life there.

When the authorities investigated her case, they discovered that she had left behind a fortune. There were more than a million dollars of assets in two safety deposit boxes-$800,000 dollars at the sum was in cash, and the remaining worth was in valuable shares of stock. She had such wealth at her fingertips, and she probably had enough money in that safety deposit box to buy the best restaurant in the whole city, yet she died because she didn’t have enough to eat.

Some people might say, “She was a fool” but today, sitting in churches all over the globe, there are Christians who are just as foolish as she was. What do I mean by that? I mean that there are Christians who are living in spiritual poverty even though Christ has made them rich.

Whatever the Bible says belonged to us is ours- we are heirs and joint heirs with Christ Jesus, yet not all Christians avail themselves of the riches of heaven that have already been put into their accounts through Jesus. The riches are available to them, all they have to do is open the safety deposit box, so to say, pull out what they need, and start using it.

Yet there are many Christians today who are wasting away. And if they are not careful, they will die in a condition of spiritual, physical, mental, or emotional poverty. But it isn’t God’s fault if they live and die in that condition. It’s their own fault, because they didn’t use what He had already made available to them through the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. In the case of the lady who starved to death, no one had anything to do with her dying in that condition but herself. And just like her, if people today don’t enjoy the new life that Christ Jesus provides, it’s not anyone’s fault but their own.

When you received new life in Christ, you were given a new position in Him. You were made a new creature, a child of God, and a joint-heir with Jesus Himself (2 Corinthians 5:17, 1st John 5:1, Romans 8:17)! You need to learn to live in this new position and to receive all the benefits that go along with it.

Unfortunately, many Christians don’t live at the level that they should, and many times it’s because of guilt. They may realize that God in Christ has forgiven them for mistakes they made, but they have a hard time forgiving themselves. So they carry guilt around, not because God is laying it on them, but because they are laying it on themselves.

Our new position in life through Christ Jesus doesn’t include any guilt. Romans 8:1 says, “There is therefore now NO CONDEMNATION to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the spirit.” Remember, once you are born again, you have a new life and new position in Christ. All things have become new-the old things have past away and don’t exist anymore.

Sometimes, you may fight the memories of the past in your mind. The devil may keep bringing up the past –what you have done, how bad you have been, or how much you have messed up. Just stand on God’s word and tell the devil, “I am in Christ and I have a new position in Him; therefore, I have no condemnation or guilt.

It’s not your spirit bringing those condemning thoughts, because your spirit is pure and free. And it certainly isn’t God condemning you. It’s just the enemy sitting on your shoulder, so to speak whispering in your ear, and reminding you of past mistakes. But if you will renew your mind with the word of God, you will get rid of any guilt or feelings of condemnation (Romans 12:2)

Let’s live this new life in Christ knowing that no outside force can separate us from God or keep us from receiving God’s best (Romans 8:35-39). The only thing that can keep us free from receiving God’s best is the person who stands in our own shoes. But once we have brought ourselves under control and are being led by the Holy Spirit, then there isn’t anything that can keep us from living a victorious life in Christ. HALELLUJAH

We care about you.
