Pentecost – Power to BE and DO

As the people of God assemble today may they yield to the baptizing presence and power of Holy Spirit so that He might be upon them because He has anointed them to preach the good news to the poor, He has sent them to announce release (pardon, forgiveness) to the captives, And recovery of sight to the blind, to set free those who are oppressed (downtrodden, bruised, crushed by tragedy), to proclaim the favorable year of the Lord [the day when salvation and the favor of God abound greatly]. (Lk.4:18-19) It was at least the equivalent of a Boeing 747 landing in the middle of downtown Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost at 9:00 in the morning. And since they had no point of reference for such a “tempest blast” they became quite perplexed (unable to grasp something clearly or to think logically and decisively about something), cf.Acts 2:6,7,12. There was no warning that a Mighty manifestation would blast them suddenly into the miraculous church age where signs and wonders would “follow them that believe” (Mk.16:17). Believers were PRAYING like their Lord had commanded them in the PLACE He had commanded them to RECEIVE what He had commanded them (Lk.24:49) so that they could DO what He had commanded them.


An Unprecedented Number of People Will Receive

Holy Father is going to put upon numerous, hungry, sons/daughters an anointing that will be similar to what He put upon David Duplesis who saw thousands receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit in power. Be among the first of those who zealously volunteer. You will speak (to individuals as well as groups) of the power and the wonders of Holy Spirit and while you are speaking people will begin to manifest tongues and redemptive acts of the gifts of the Spirit. Not only will people accept Jesus in parking lots, stores, businesses and homes but in the same places, they will also be baptized with the Holy Spirit. Many have prophesied how many billion will be saved in an endgame move of God. But there will also be an unprecedented number of people who are baptized with the Holy Spirit beginning in 2023 and rolling on through the remainder of the decade.
