The indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit is one of the
greatest gifts you could ever have as a Christian. If anyone knew the
importance and ministry of the Holy Spirit in man, it was Jesus. He said, “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” (Acts 1:8). That’s why He
commanded the apostles not to depart from Jerusalem but wait for the promise of
the Father – He was referring to the Holy Ghost. He wanted them to be imbued
with power from on high so they could live the supernatural life of the Kingdom
and carry out His ministry.
There is no authentic Christianity without the Holy Spirit.
No one can live the victorious and triumphant life in Christ without the Holy
Spirit. Even your service to God only becomes acceptable to Him when you render
it through the Holy Spirit (Romans 15:16, Hebrews 9:4).Therefore, learn to
always honour the Spirit and appreciate His presence in your life; never take
it lightly. His presence is the most important thing to you.
If you’re born again and yet to receive the Holy Spirit,
it’s time to do so. Say, “In the Name of Jesus Christ, I receive the Holy
Spirit right now, and I speak in other tongues as He gives me utterance!” Now,
go ahead and magnify God in other tongues. Praise God!
