Receiving the Holy Spirit
By
Rev. Kenneth E. Hagin
"And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit" (Acts 2:4).
"…They sent unto them Peter and John: Who, when they were come down,
prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Spirit (Acts
8:14-15).
"…Have ye received the Holy Spirit since ye believed?" (Acts 19:2).
In New Testament times, it was the exception for believers not to have
received the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, with the supernatural sign
and initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
The Epistles were written to believers who knew Jesus as Savior and
who had been filled with the Holy Spirit.
Thank God, the Holy Spirit is in us too. But too often people who have
been born again and then filled with the Spirit just think of
themselves as having received a blessing or some kind of
experience-and they miss entirely what the Word of God teaches!
A Divine Personality actually comes to live in us! God Himself in the
Person of the Holy Spirit indwells us!
Confession: God Himself in the Person of the Holy Spirit indwells
me. The Creator dwells in me. God lives in me.
