     | 5,565 views

    Job cried out for a "daysman" in his great distress but determined there was none. Christians have a great "Daysman" to advocate our cause before the Father.

    THE LONG-AWAITED DAYSMAN “For He is not a man, as I am, that I should answer Him, and we should come together in judgment. Neither is there a Daysman betwixt us, that might lay his hand upon us both.” Job 9:32-33 “For there is one God, and one mediator between God and man, the Man Christ Jesus, ...read more

    The Book of Acts records two great "Pentecostal" experiences in the early church. But often, throughout church history, many personal “Pentecosts” have occurred.

    THE POWER OF A PERSONAL PENTECOST "But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth." Acts 1:8. The Book of Acts records two great "Pentecostal" experiences in the early ...read more

    In a positional sense there were only two "Pentecosts" mentioned in the Bible recorded in Acts 2 and Acts 10 but a "personal pentecost" is available to every Christian who earnestly seeks the anointing power of the Holy Spirit in their life.

    THE POWER OF A PERSONAL PENTECOST "But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth."
