Word of the Day


Thank you Jesus for all your blessings! Praise the Lord!
We give you all the glory! You are worthy to be praised!

Thank you for joining us today! If you are new to this blog, please take the time to post a comment on what you have read today and let us know what you think. We value your opinion. For those joining us who have followed us since the beginning, this blog is designed for Pastor Ed to give us the Word of the Day and share with us his teaching on the Word.

     Hi everyone! How is everybody doing? Blessed I hope. Let's talk about the baptism of the Holy Spirit today. The baptism of the Holy Spirit is defined as work whereby the Spirit of God places the believer into union with Christ and union with other believers in the body of Christ. 1 Corinthians 12:12-13 is the best scripture in the Bible in regards to to the baptism of the Holy Spirit. "For we are all baptized by one Spirit into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, slave or free, and we were all given the one Spirit to drink." 1 Corinthians 12:13 All have been baptized when they are born again. The baptism of the Holy Spirit unites us to the body of Christ and it brings into actuality our crucifixion with Christ. Being in His body means we are risen with Him to a newness of life. Romans 6:4 states: Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. We should then take care to work our spiritual gifts to keep the body working properly. Being involved with Christ in His, death, burial and resurrection through the Holy Spirit baptism finds that we the basis for our separation from the power of indwelling sin and walk in newness of life. Colossians 2:12 says, Buried with him in death, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.  
     After we receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit, the first thing many do is begin speaking in tongues. In order to receive this special free gift, we must pray that the Holy Spirit will come live within us and we will be able to see the result of that through an unknown heavenly language known as tongues, your conversation with the Lord, and it confuses Satan. You won't know what you are saying, because it is an utterance from your heart that the Holy Spirit is interceding on our behalf to the Father. It may seem awkward at first, but once you begin to speak, the Holy Spirit fills your mouth with words and it you will get used to it. The more you speak it, the stronger the Holy Spirit's presence falls upon you. With the power of the Holy Spirit upon you, you can move mountains. You can change the atmosphere of your life, because you have the exact same power that Jesus had to heal the sick.
     Repeat after me,
     Lord Jesus, please forgive me of my sins and make me pure, clean and holy in your sight. I acknowledge that you were born of a virgin, died on the cross for my sins and rose the third day to ascend into heaven to sit beside the Father. I ask that you come into my life and live in my heart forever. Lord, I ask that you send The Comforter, the Holy Spirit, to live in my heart and baptize me with the Holy Spirit. I receive Him now in your precious name. Thank you for sending Him to comfort me. 
                                                                                                                                 In Jesus name,
                                                                                                                                      Amen





  We like to close every Word of the Day by making sure you have the opportunity to ask Jesus in your heart. 
    So please pray,  Lord Jesus, I accept that you were born of a virgin, died on the cross and shed your blood for my sins to be forgiven and rose again to be Lord and King. I repent of my sins and ask that you come into my life and be Lord and Savior and live in my heart. 
Amen
    Friends, if you just prayed this prayer, you are born again, and may I pray that you grow in your walk with Jesus and develop an intimate relationship with Him. If you just said this prayer, please send us an email, we would love to know.


Thank you for joining us and please come back everyday for a new Word of the Day.



Sincerely,
Pastor Ed
