Acts 8:14 (NKJV) 14 Now when the apostles who were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent Peter and John to them…

As we can see in this verse, the Samaritans received the word of God; they had put their faith in Christ.

Praise be to God!

When the apostles heard that they had already received the word of God, what did they do? They sent Peter and John to them.

Peter and John prayed that the Samaritan believers would also receive the Holy Spirit.

Acts 8:15 (NKJV) 15 who, when they had come down, prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Spirit.

This is very important. It should help us understand how much we need the Holy Spirit.

The Samaritans were already believers, and both men and women had been water baptized. But the apostles felt the need to send Peter and John to help them receive the Holy Spirit.

Acts 8:12 (NKJV) 12 But when they believed Philip as he preached the things concerning the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, both men and women were baptized.

They took 3 separate steps; they believed the word of God, they were water baptized, and they received the Holy Spirit.

Our question to you today is, did you receive the Holy Spirit?

Are you walking in His power and might?

Or are you trying to follow Christ solely with you own intellect and understanding, trying to fight battles, and temptation on your own?

It was very important that Peter and John got to them to help them receive the Holy Spirit.

Let us not neglect this step. Jesus said it is to our advantage that He left, so our Helper could come.

John 16:7 (NKJV) 7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send Him to you.

It is a step that we all must take if we want the help we need to get through this journey. Jesus sent Him for us! Amen.

Holy Spirit Power

Acts 10:38 (NKJV) 38 how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him.

If Jesus Christ, God’s own son, needed to be anointed to do good things and bring healing upon the oppressed, how much more do we need the Holy Spirit moving through us just to live out our daily walk in this day and time?

The Greek word for this power is dunamis (doo-nam-is), which means energy, power, might, great force, great ability, and strength.

The dunamis that Jesus walked in resulted in dramatic transformation. This is exactly what every believer can and should walk in.

We are not meant to carry on and be witnesses on our own ability.

Our natural man, our fleshly intellectual ways, cannot handle the tasks God gives us. But the Holy Spirit working in us will amazingly get the job done.

Acts 4:33 (NKJV) 33 And with great power the apostles gave witness to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And great grace was upon them all.

The Holy Sprit power needs to be upon us. There is a lot to do here on this earth. We need His strength everyday.

Pray for the anointing, that we may reach the ends of this earth with God’s message by the dunamis of the Holy Spirit moving through us. God be with us. Amen.
