When persecution rose up against the early
Church, they lifted their voices in one accord and prayed to the Lord. The
content of their prayer in Acts 4:24-30 revealed that they wanted a sign from
heaven. But what was God’s answer to their request?: “And when they had prayed,
the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all
filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness”
(Acts 4:31).
God responded by filling them with the Holy
Ghost! Reading further, you will discover that God didn’t come down to
Jerusalem, stretching forth to heal the sick as they prayed. They were the ones
that did all that after being filled with the Holy Spirit. This is the reason
Paul charged us to be filled with the Spirit always (Ephesians 5:18).
A man
that’s full of the Spirit is unstoppable; he is indomitable. When the Holy
Spirit is in you in His fullness, He’ll strengthen you and be wisdom to you,
when you don’t know what to do; He’ll give you dominion over every situation of
life. Recognize Him, and you will never be the same again.
