April 9 WHEN THE SPIRIT WAS POURED OUT: BEING FILLED WITH THE HOLY GHOST

John 16:13 “Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.”

Joel’s prophecy in Joel 2:28 was fulfilled in Acts 2 thousands of years ago, the scripture is still fulfilling itself as men, women, and children are being filled with the Holy Ghost and walking in the newness of life today.  The outpouring of the Spirit of Truth, (the Holy Ghost) not only saves the soul of sinners but it also restores the believer.  As believers, we should desire a continuous outpouring of the Spirit within us for every encounter with the Spirit changes us and shows us the truth about ourselves.  It shines a light in the darkest places of our hearts and reveals the hidden things, enabling us to overcome the flesh.  We can then be ready when Jesus returns.
