Bible Text: Matthew 3:11 “I indeed
baptize you with water unto
repentance. but he that cometh after
me is mightier than I, whose shoes I
am not worthy to bear: he shall
baptize you with the Holy Ghost,
and with fire:”
Jesus is the one who baptises us with
the Holy Ghost and fire. In Colossians
1:27, bible says ‘Christ in you, the hope
of glory’. You see, the most important
things in the world are the things
which cannot be seen. For example the
heart, liver, blood cannot be seen but
they are extremely important in the
human body. The things inside of us
are very important; the internal things
control the external.
Faith for example is an internal thing,
you cannot wear it like a dress yet
according Mark 11:22-23 bible says
faith can move mountains.
Love is also an internal thing; you
cannot write on your forehead ‘I have
love’ yet songs of Solomon 8:6 says
love is strong as death
In John 6:54-56, Jesus says if you eat
his flesh and drink his blood then He’ll
dwell in you. When we come to the
Holy Communion table and take the
bread (which represents His body)
and wine (which represents His
blood), we are putting inside us
symbolic element of the body and
blood of Jesus Christ. Taking the Holy
Communion gives us an assurance that
our life will be glorious because the
bible says Christ in you is the hope of
glory.
When you eat the bread and take the
wine, you are saying to anything that
causes shame in your life to get out
because shame is the opposite of glory.
As you partake in the Holy
Communion, every sickness or demon
hiding in your body will vanish in Jesus
name. Amen.
What is it about being baptised in the
Holy Ghost and fire? When Jesus
baptises you with the Holy Ghost and
fire, tremendous power is released
into you.
Acts 1:8 says “But ye shall receive
power, after that the Holy Ghost is come
upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto
me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea,
and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost
part of the earth .”
God expects you to leave this
convention unable to keep your mouth
shut, telling people how powerful Jesus
is. God expects you to be His witnesses
and that is why He’s willing to give you
power.
According to Acts 2:1-4 , when the fire
of God falls upon you, you receive
utterance to speak in tongues. For
those of you who have never spoken in
tongues before, tonight after taking
the Holy Communion, God will surprise
you. Amen!
What happens to you when the fire
falls depends on you? When the fire
falls it either fills or consumes you. In
Judges 15:14-16, when the Spirit of the
LORD came mightily upon Samson, the
cords that was binding him loosed.
When the fire of God descends on you,
every yoke binding you will be
destroyed by fire in Jesus name.
Amen.
However in 2 Kings chapter 1, when
the fire of God of God came down, it
consumed all Elijah’s enemies. If you
are not of God and the fire falls, there
will be nothing left of you other than
ashes! So if you are still yet to give
your life to Jesus, please do so now!
The bible says the life of an animal is
in its blood (Lev17:11), this means the
very life of God is in the blood of Jesus.
Taking the Holy Communion also fills
you with the life of God (John 6:53)
PRAYER POINTS
