I baptize you with water, but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit. Mark 1:8
In the event of Christ’ ministry on earth, he fulfilled all the missions he was destined for. The written account of the scriptures are the sacred words of the truth which are purposed to prepare us for eternity. the Holy Word of God clearly states that no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and Spirit. This is the truth declared and whoever believes and lives in the powers of it will be saved by the powers of it. We live in an age where the predicted prophecies are swiftly coming to pass and the future fulfillment of the prophecies will be carried out with speed and finality. Just as it was written about the Son of God, Christ came to this world, being baptized in water and Spirit, He died and resurrected to give us life, hope and a holy future with God. It was the sacrifice of Christ that gave us life and it is only through Him that we can be saved.
The first Church experienced her first Holy baptism in the Holy Spirit and the powers that once worked in her will continue to work in us till the end of the world. This sacred baptism is the only way to be sealed in the Holy Spirit and every lover of Christ who knows and loves God must be in step with the Spirit. A person who does not have the Spirit of Christ is an outcast but he who has the Spirit of God has the seal of God. The seal refereed to here is the Holy Spirit which is the seal of redemption. This baptism of the Holy Spirit must be desired and the anointing of it will be received by those who receives it. Trust this: Just as it is written without holiness no one will see God, without the Holy Spirit we shall see no life in the next life and whoever receives it will be accepted into the family of God which is the Church of Christ. It is only by the blood of Christ and the Spirit of God that we can get access to the Father. The Word of God clearly states that he who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to Christ (Romans 8:9).
Every member of the Church of Christ must undergo the sacred baptism of the Holy Spirit which is the baptism of life unto the next life. Being aware of what the present situation is like, the Holy Spirit calls upon every believer to receive the sacred gift while they can. The moments that are to come will be more chaotic than the present ( for the sinners ) but for us who knows and loves God, the glory of God will cover and protect us from the wrath which is to befall the world. So the truth is this: Whether we live or die if we live in the power of the Holy Spirit, our stance will only become stronger and stronger. If God is for us no force on earth will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus (Romans 8:38,39 ). God’s love is so great and the more we live in the Spirit, the more we begin to know and feel Him. Let this baptism of the Holy Spirit be yours today as you embrace the powers that comes through it. This is the message preached and written to see the best of you in this life and in the next. Desire it and live in the powers of it.
