The Holy Spirit

SCRIPTURE
Acts 19:6 - "And when Paul had laid hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they spoke with tongues and prophesied".


OBSERVATION
This was a very special experience in these believers' lives that God had ordained for them - releasing them into the prophetic ministry of the Holy Spirit. It came as somewhat of a surprise, because they weren't expecting or even aware of it. How awesome that God, in His love for them, chose to surprise them and show them that there was even more in their Christian experience than they knew about, or had planned on.


APPLICATION
God has incredible supernatural moments for all of us as His children and sometimes they come when we least expect it. Our perceptions of God are so limited, and as we continue to walk with Him, He will surprise us with supernatural interruptions of His Spirit that are designed to strengthen, encourage, and empower us in our lives and relationships with Him.

PRAYER
God, help us to be open to Your divine interruptions in our lives- things we may not be expecting, things we may not be prepared for - but things that You have purposed for our lives to grow us in our relationship with You, and to make us stronger witnesses for Your Kingdom. May every purpose of Yours be established in our lives!
