Receive the Holy Spirit

What Is It Like?

The baptism of the Holy Spirit refers to the descent and indwelling of God's Spirit. The initial experience of the Holy Spirit usually occurs during prayer. The sign and evidence of receiving the Holy Spirit is speaking of unintelligible tongues. Everyone who has received the Holy Spirit prays to God with a spiritual tongue without having to be taught how to do so. Oftentimes, in addition to speaking in tongues, there is also body movement, warmth, and indescribable inner joy.

Who Is It For?

The Lord Jesus has already promised this precious gift to anyone who believes and sincerely asks him. Experience God personally by asking him to forgive your sins and come into your heart. Receiving the Holy Spirit can be your most wonderful and joyful experience.

Be Born of the Holy Spirit

A New Life

The transforming power of the Holy Spirit delivers true believers from sinful and depraved lives. Whereas we used to indulge in our evil desires, we are now set free from the control of sin. God has promised, "I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of þesh. And I will put my Spirit in you and move you to follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws" (Ezekiel 36:26-27). God's Spirit can revive our souls and make us new beings who lead an active Christian life and possess the hope of eternal life.

Walk by the Holy Spirit

Personal Counselor

The Holy Spirit is a personal counselor who is always there for you on your heavenly pilgrimage. He gives you wisdom to fully understand God's word; he guides you to walk in God's ways; he corrects you when you have done wrong; and he strengthens you when you are too weak to go on.

Live according to the Spirit

It is important, therefore, to pray constantly for the fullness of the Holy Spirit so as to always feel his presence, and to submit your whole life to the guiding hands of the Holy Spirit. By walking with the Holy Spirit through obeying his will in your day-to-day living, you will triumphantly complete the journey to heaven.
