Pentecost Part 2 // The Empowerment of the Holy Spirit

In the last devotion, we read about how Pentecost means that the Holy Spirit is always with us. This is certainly something we can be thankful for, but there is even more worth celebrating. When the Holy Spirit comes upon us like He did at Pentecost, He empowers us to do all that God has called us to do. In Matthew 28:19-20, Jesus gives His disciples the Great Commission - to go into all the world and make disciples. However, God does not require us to do this in our own strength. 

After the baptism of the Holy Spirit in Acts 2, a miracle occurs almost immediately. The disciples who have been baptised in the Holy Spirit begin to testify about God miraculously in languages that they did not know. As a result, the people from various countries in the crowd could all understand. In fact, this miracle was so powerful that 3,000 were saved and baptised that day! (Acts 2:41) The call that Jesus has for His disciples to preach the gospel in all the world can seem very intimidating or even impossible. But with God, nothing is impossible. He has given us the Holy Spirit who empowers us to do all that God has called us to do. As we continue in this time of prayer and feasting, let us be thankful that the Holy Spirit has empowered and equipped us to do great things for Him!

Prayer:

I thank You, God, that You have not only given me a purpose and calling, but that You have empowered me to live out that calling. I ask that You would fill me afresh with Your Spirit once again. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
