It’s a fresh new month, and Pentecost is over, so hopefully the devil’s diversion away from God’s holy time is also over, and we can get back to our lives, instead of fearing what will come next. Let’s be honest, Christians don’t celebrate Pentecost like they should, and make it a Holy convocation in honor of all that Jesus did for us by giving us the gift of the Holy Spirit. It means something different for the Jews, but for us, it was a day of new beginnings, a day when our lives changed to become a temple of the Holy Spirit. How can we go on as if it wasn’t significant? I’ll tell you how, it’s not taught. It is glazed over, and quickly and quietly forgotten, so we don’t stir up the kooks who use it to show off. Most churches don’t want that kind of drama, and want their parishioners to sit quietly, and listen, and to take their spiritual revival somewhere else. That's why, instead of celebrating the Holy Spirit, we get rioting, and other diversions such as a pandemic. How long are we going to entertain Satan with our unbelief? Christians, this whole ordeal played right into his hands, and there is celebration in hell today. Wake up and pay attention! Jesus celebrated all the feasts; why don’t we? I celebrated this holy day by honoring God, and pleading for an increase in my gifts. It may not have looked like a Jewish festival in my house, but I took time out to acknowledge the Holy Spirit, and I hope you did the same.
When the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place. And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. And divided tongues as of fire appeared to them and rested on each one of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance. Acts 2:1-4
