TOPIC: DESIRED QUALITIES OF WORKERS IN HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE (2)

TEXT: ACTS 2:1-4 
1. And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. 
2. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
3.  And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.
4. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

KEY VERSE: ACTS 1:8 But ye shall receive power; after that, the Holy Ghost will come upon you; and ye shall be witnesses unto Me both in Jerusalem and in all Judaea and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

In every organization, workers are trained and equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge to operate maximally for optimum profit. God employs laborers in His vineyard to bear abiding fruit. The disciples had worked with the Master for three and a half years, and now they were to face the world themselves after his ascension. 

But He commanded them not to go into the field of service but to wait for the promise of the Father. The divine counsel came from Jesus Himself to the disciples. He did not want them to think they could carry out the service simply because He had sent them out before to preach, teach, and do signs and wonders to various degrees but He commanded them to wait for the power of the Holy Spirit.

Christian workers who desire to offer fruitful, lasting, and abiding exploits in the kingdom must first be baptized in the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit power gives you divine enablement to serve productively in the vineyard. 

He gives grace to believers to do the perfect will of God. He gives wisdom, knowledge, and understanding in your area of service. He gives you spiritual gifts for ease of operation. You are able to carry out the service of God effortlessly. When you are empowered by the Holy Spirit, it will no longer be you again, but God takes over to do the work Himself. That is when the service becomes a perfect and reasonable service acceptable to God.

Again, the Holy Spirit baptism makes you fervent in spirit and makes the zeal of the Lord consume you. You are not easily dissuaded, confused, or distracted. It makes you bold in service and ready to pass through any form of persecution. He makes you ready to endure and suffer long until you accomplish your mission. Dearly beloved brethren, if you have not been baptized, be hungry and thirst for it in prayer unto God, and you will receive it.

Thought for the day: the Holy Spirit baptism ensures more fruitful abiding exploits.

Bible reading for the day: Isaiah 41-43

For taking your time to study remain blessed. UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...

Every Word Of God For Daily Living For taking your time to study remain blessed July Tuesday 9th TOPIC: WE ARE IN THE TWILIGHT HOUR OF RAPTURE TEXT: Ephesians 5:26-27 KEY VERSE: Hebrews 9:28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation. Seeing the traces of the features of the next dispensation in this present dispensation, you should know that you are in the twilight hour. What is a twilight hour? A twilight hour is that hour of the day that you begin to see the traces of the night while it is still daylight (probably 7:00pm to 7:30pm). It is not completely dark, yet it is not complete bright either. While it is still day, you are seeing the traces of the night. A twilight hour is the hour when you are still in this dispensation but you are already seeing traces of the next. The twilight hour is the time that our Lord Jesus Christ was born and even though He came with the New Test...
