The Spirit Comes (by Matthew J Cochran)

Pentecost (by Edward Potts)

This is me

And Peter said to them, Repent and be baptised every one

of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of
your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Acts 2:38

We went to Jerusalem just like He said,

For forty days we wondered what lies ahead,
We sang, we prayed, and recalled each word,
That Jesus told us, and the miracles we've heard.

1. My favourite Bible verses are Revelation 4 v 8 which

describes the completeness of God - Holy, holy, holy is
the Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to
come, and Matthew 6 v 9-13, which speaks about our
relationship with Him through prayer.

In Christ, the many promises of God to His people, the Jews,

came to pass. He encompassed all that God had chosen to
reveal to man. In the Holy Spirit then, all of the promises of
Christ to His people, the Christians, were fulfilled. Jesus had
told His followers to go and wait for Him after He had
resurrected and reappeared to them. He promised if they
waited they would receive power.
And so they waited. They hid, really. They were all together
in one place on that day, the day of Pentecost. And when
they received the Holy Spirit they all were given the power to
speak in languages they didnt know, for the purpose of
evangelising to others in his/her own tongue. Those who
heard them were amazed that these uneducated men were
able to speak many languages.
Some scoffed, some
mockedbut they listened.
As they listened, the previously timid disciples who were in
hiding boldly came out among them and preached the
gospel. Peter delivered a sermon that brought around 3,000
to Christ that day. It wasnt a heres how to get a better life
sermon, or even a Jesus loves you speech. Peter simply
pointed to the truth through events that had taken place and
then let the conviction of the Holy Spirit do its work in the
hearts of the people. They heard it and were cut to the
heart (Acts 2:37). Then Peter gave them a chance to
respond, which they did.
The work of the Holy Spirit in believers on Pentecost is the
same power He employs today in us. Things may not
always be so drastic as to see thousands of people saved in
one moment, but His conviction in their hearts and His work
in us to be bold in speaking the truth is still very real, just as
it was for Peter and the eleven. He may not ever urge you to
speak in tongues or to preach in front of a massive crowd,
but He will empower you to do Gods will in whatever
situation you do find yourself in.

To God be the glory.

There was, Peter, John, and Mary Magdalene.

Who told us of many things they had seen,
Jesus told us that in Jerusalem we would receive power,
We waited with patience for His promised hour.
"Let not your heart be troubled, nor let it know fear,
I go to my Father, but you will stay here,
I'll send you a comforter while I am away,
Just go to the Jerusalem and wait for that day.
As we sang and prayed our spirits did soar,
Suddenly the room was filled with a roar,
Great tongues like fire came like the wind,
As fire set on each one, His power came in.
We sprang to our feet and in language unknown,
We gave praise and honour to God on His throne,
Some people thought we had lost our mind,
But they didn't know we had drank His new wine.
As we prophesied in the word long ago,
God was pouring His spirit on people below,
Jesus had redeemed the world Adam lost,
That day in God's word is called Pentecost.

2. Prior to retirement I had several roles but latterly I was a

rehab and mobility officer for visually impaired people.
3. I do not have a favourite television programme as have
not owned a television set by about 11 years.
4. I do not have a favourite colour in particular, it can
depend on my mood, occasion or season etc.
5. My most recent holiday destination was to Kent with my
family.
6. 3 blessings : Salvation, family and Gods provision.
7. As a child I did not attend church until I went to a
convent school for 2 years. It wasnt until as a young
adult I started questioning whats the point of life? did I
attend church again and I was subsequently confirmed
into the church of England. However I left after some 24
years and started worshipping at Chatham Salvation
Army.
