On the Road to Pentecost: Prepare to Meet the Holy Spirit

Pentecost, the day Christians commemorate the descent of the Holy Spirit, the supreme Gift of God, upon the twelve apostles and other followers of Christ. 

Are you, like the apostles, preparing to welcome the Holy Spirit of God into your life? Are you ready to meet the Holy Spirit?

“In a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit…” [Acts 1:5]

On the road to Pentecost, you ought to get ready for the coming of the Person of the Trinity who desires to give to you a Life you’ve never before known.

In the coming days, meditate upon the Holy Spirit and pray for revelation of the deep things of God. Spirit will be speaking, so listen attentively to what is said to you, for it is written,

“He who is able to hear, let him listen to and give heed to what the Spirit says…” – Revelation 2:7 (AMPC)

“He who has ears to hear” is repeated throughout the Word, and whatever follows this command is important for us to “give heed to”.

What Spirit says, we should not miss, so pay attention, focus and do not ignore what you hear, as it is vital to your spiritual growth, relates to your fellowship with God and the restoration of your abundant life in Christ (John 10:10), for the verse goes on to say,

 “To him who overcomes (is victorious), I will grant to eat [of the fruit] of the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God.”

What a promise! To be given the honour of eating from the Tree of Life in the paradise of God. Meditate on that for a moment.

Beloved, as you travel on the road to Pentecost, may Almighty God bless you with wisdom and understanding. I pray that you will not be distracted but will pursue enlightenment from His Holy Spirit who speaks out of the depths of His own glorious wisdom, the precious Truth of God.

Amen†
