Title - New Baptism of The Holy Spirit
Teacher:- Pastor Esirigho Ofurhie
Main Text:- Acts 4:20
As humans we have personal desires & goals.
However, God tells us to seek Him first (Matthew 6:33).
We tend to forget that it is when we seek God first, other things we desire would come to us.
God understands our weaknesses and knows it it is difficult for us to yield unto His will
and that is why he wants to give us His Spirit.
Even Paul testified in Rom 7:15 that he struggled with doing the right thing.
But with the help of The Holy Spirit, he was able to do God's will.
When you have the Holy Spirit, doing the Will of God comes easily.
Jeremiah said, even when he tried keeping his mouth shut (stop prophesying), it was impossible (Jeremiah 20:9)
This is because the Spirit of God was in Him, he couldn't help but do God's Will.
Likewise, we need The Holy Spirit.
The problem is, we do not tarry (patient) enough for the Holy Spirit Acts 1:4.
Moses tarried with God and when he came back from the mountain, the Isrealites could not behold his face
In like manner, we must continually seek Him and not be lukewarm.
Also, for the outpouring of The Holy Spirit, we must be born again.
Seek God today for an outpouring of The Holy Spirit.
