THE BELIEVER’S AUTHORITY AND POWER
And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance (Acts 2:1-4)
The Jewish day starts at 6am so it happened after then but before 9am as we will discover later. It was the Feast of Pentecost, the thanksgiving for the harvest celebrated 50 days after Passover, the release from the curse of sin and death, the giving of new life in the resurrection of Christ. For the born again Church Pentecost is the giving of authority and power to the Church that we may minister in power and have the authority and power to walk in the will of God, to overcome that liar satan in all his deceptive disguises and to continue Jesus’ ministry in reconciling man to God, and more. They had spent 10 days together waiting for this promise of the Father, they started waiting in one accord and remained in one accord to receive their crowning glory as sons of God: princes, royal priests in the kingdom of the Risen Christ Jesus. They were sat in prayer, then the whole house was filled with the sound of a tempest, rushing means to speedily carry forward as an announcement, it was the sound of the mighty breath of God. Then appeared to them a pair of tongues of fire, living flames, that settled on each of them. At Jesus' baptism a dove of peace settled upon Him and remained with Him, the Prince of Peace. The fire of the Holy Spirit alighted on each of the 120 and then they were all filled to all their fulness with the Holy Spirit and began speaking in their spiritual language as the Holy Spirit fully possessed them, overwhelmed them and overflowed them, the Holy Spirit speaking out of them in a jubilant outburst glorifying and giving thanks to God for their harvest of the gifts and fruit of the Spirit. Thank you Father, Son and Holy Spirit!!
