Of the Doctrine of Baptisms: Be Filled NOW!! (Part 3 of 3)

Beloved, I love to hear people speaking in tongues, I love to hear myself speak those strange words, those mysteries I speak to God as His Spirit gives me the utterance (Acts 2:4). I love it when people get filled with the Holy Ghost and the gift of tongues begins to manifest immediately. Speaking in tongues is every bit as supernatural as raising the dead. Period!!! Hahahaha!!

A doubt may arise in your mind that maybe people fake it. That I say is impossible. Go ahead!! Try faking it now!!

Beloved, as a powerful man of God points out, tongues come out of your mouth in sentences, there are punctuations, rises and falls in tone, messages, mysteries that the Holy Spirit stirs up from the depths of our being. Deep CRIES OUT to deep!!!

Walking in the Spirit

Beloved, Paul says “I say, then, Walk in the Spirit and you shall not fulfill the lusts of the flesh” (Galatians 5:16).

There is this amazing revelation that prophet Kobus shares about walking in the Spirit. He points out that the direct translation for the word “walk” as used in the case of Enoch (Genesis 5:22) and when Paul tells the Galatians to “walk in the Spirit” are the words “halak” in Hebrew and “peripateo” in Greek. The word “halak” in the Strong’s dictionary is interpreted as “to be conversant with” and the word “peripateo” also means “to be occupied with”. Hallelujah!! What a revelation!!

There is only ONE thing that can ensure the possibility of perpetually being able to “walk…be conversant with…in continual communion” with God; The answer is (you guessed it) TONGUES!!

Beloved Paul says, “The one speaking in a tongue builds himself up…” (1 Corinthians 14:4a), “I thank God that I speak in strange tongues much more than any of you” (1 Corinthians 14:18), “So then, my friends, set your heart on proclaiming God's message, but do not forbid the speaking in strange tongues” (1 Corinthians 14:39).

Beloved, the Secret of the Apostle Paul becoming the man we all know him to be is right there in 1 Corinthians 14:18. Prophets and Pastors who move in the powerful gifts of the Holy Spirit all concur with this. Pastor Joseph Prince declares that “tongues are the gateway to unleashing the power of God in our lives” and “speaking in tongues ushers in all the other gifts of the Spirit into a believer’s life”. No wonder Jesus took care to mention it in His commission in the book of Mark (Mark 16:17-18).

The more a believer speaks in tongues, he/she edifies himself. Paul says in 1 Corinthians 14:2 “For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God. For no one hears, but in spirit he speaks mysteries”, beloved, these mysteries are explained in Romans 8:26-27, where he says, “Likewise the Spirit also helps our infirmities. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And He searching the hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God.”  Hallelujah!!

In the book of Joshua, God tells Joshua, the newly appointed leader of Israel “This book of the Law shall not depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate on it by day and by night…..” (Joshua 1:8a). Beloved, the word mediate here in the Hebrew is the word “hagah” which literally means to mutter. So when we look at this verse according to the New Covenant, where the Law is no more in effect for those who believe in the finished work of Christ Jesus(Matthew 5:17, Romans 8:1-2, Galatians 5:13, Colossians 2:14), and God does not remember our sins, instead He promises to write His Law in our hearts and minds (Hebrews 8:12, 10:16-17), the only way we meditate by muttering is when we pray in tongues. Beloved, let us now read the rest of Joshua 1:8, “…..so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. FOR THEN (when you constantly meditate on His Law, that is, speak in tongues under the New Covenant) you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall act wisely”. WOW!!!

Be filled NOW!

Beloved, I firmly believe that you will be baptized in the Holy Spirit RIGHT NOW, as you are reading this. The biblical evidence is that you will speak in tongues. No one laid hands on the household of Cornelius when they spoke in tongues for the first time (Acts 10). I too was skeptical about this manner of receiving the Spirit until someone very near and dear to me got filled with the Spirit just as it is in Acts 10.

So beloved if you have not entered into this Spiritual realm before, will you allow me to pray for you?

Jesus says, “For what father of you, if the son asks for bread, will he give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a snake for a fish? Or if he shall ask for an egg, will he give him a scorpion?  If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, HOW MUCH MORE shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him?” (Luke 11:11-13).

As you read this act in faith, speak! Kenneth Hagin said that he kept repeating the word “Hallelujah” till he noticed that he was speaking in tongues. The man of God he went to seeking the infilling of the Spirit, told him that he would have to tarry, but brother Hagin received the infilling eight minutes after he asked for it.

So beloved, the Spirit filled brother Hagin in eight minutes! People have received this instantaneously!! I serve the Creator, for whom there is nothing impossible, I believe that you will have this powerful experience right NOW!!

Let us pray!

Daddy God!! I thank you for my beloved brother/sister. I see the hunger in him/her, the hunger to receive more from You. Jesus said, “Blessed are those who HUNGER and THIRST for righteousness, for the SHALL BE FILLED”.

Jesus, You are the Mighty One whom John prophesied would baptize with the “Holy Spirit and with FIRE”, so I ask you now Lord to honor your WORD and as this Spirit Word goes out of your servant let it fall on fertile ground and let the one who receives it BE FILLED WITH THE HOLY GHOST!!! AMEN!!!

Hallelujah!!!

Welcome to this NEW REALM beloved. Trust me you will never ever be the same!!! Build yourself up in the most holy faith (Jude 1:20), stir up this “charisma” gift in you (2 Timothy 1:6), walk in the Spirit (Galatians 5:16), get completely whacked out, high, drunk in the Spirit (Ephesians 5:18)) as you exercise this powerful gift!! And remember “He will NEVER leave you nor FORSAKE you” (Hebrews 13:5) because HE who PROMISED is FAITHFUL (1 Thessalonians 5:24, Hebrews 10:23b)!! Hallleeeeeeluuuujaaaaaaaaaahhhh!!!!
