The Holy Spirit Comes

And what was the result?

(Act 2:41) Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day.

Would you call that a good day for the Kingdom of God?

It certainly was.

So, as we wrap this message up, what does all this mean to us?

I was thinking of our church as I prepared this message for this morning.

I was reminded that the disciples were gathered together, in one accord. In one place, one mind, seeking the Holy Spirit of God.

The Spirit came, gave them great power and the ability to do mighty thing for the Kingdom of God.

Then they did it.

Peter, filled the Holy Spirit, preached a sermon that saved 3000.

I guess what I am trying to get to is that if we as a body of believers, much like the disciples, got together, both in body and in spirit, what can we accomplish for the Kingdom of God.

I am not saying that we need to hold an all-night vigil and spend hours together praying and seeking. What I am saying is that even if we are not together in body, we can come together in mind and pray for the outpouring of the Spirit on our church. Pray that God would send the Fire from heaven like He did with the disciples. And maybe 3 would get saved. Maybe 30?

I would like to challenge each of you this week to spend at least 10 minutes a day praying for the Holy Spirit to speak to you and guide you as to what he would have you do to bring revival to our congregation.

I will commit to you that I will do the same.

You know when God’s people pray together for one purpose, one goal, in one mind, then He will from Heaven and He will answer.

Can y’all do that this week? I know some of you are going to on the road, but as a group, when you are traveling, take these 10 minutes and pray together. And those of us who will be here, do the same. I don’t think we even have to do it at the same time. I know God will hear and I know God will answer.

Let’s start together right now. As I pray, I challenge you to pray and seek the Holy Spirit of God.
