Have you ever received a gift that blew your natural mind; a gift that you remembered, even up to today? If so, do you still have that gift? I’m sure some of those gifts, even though you remember them, you no longer have.
Then Peter said unto them, repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost, Acts 2:38. One of my closest, dear friends Veronica is celebrating a birthday today and even though she will receive many priceless gifts and even though she herself continues to be a gift to others, she like many of us will never receive such an awesome, powerful gift as in the gift of the Holy Spirit.
The wonderful thing about this gift, we don’t have to achieve notoriety, attain a goal or work for this gift. We simply have to repent of our sins and receive Christ as Lord and as Savior and the gift is automatic. Once the gift is activated, he gives you the power to tread upon demons, power to understand God’s word more effectively and the power to succeed in life’s journey. Have you received the gift of the Holy Spirit? Is He evident and working in and through your life today? Are you allowing Him to work through you?
Exercise your free gift so your heavenly Father may be glorified!
