Which Holyghost baptism did you receive?
We live in a time where nobody wants to follow the manual of the spirit. Where we seek for quick fixes rather than him who is the way. The Holyghost baptism experience is no longer genuine in our time, and for believers to be convinced that something is still happening another pattern is introduced that negates the original pattern as was laid down from d beginning. The type of baptism we see in most churches nowadays is a classroom teaching of alphabets, vowels and consonants of a strange language. Where the believer is taught to speak and not to receive something tangible from heaven. No wonder the church is weak, timid, tired, and busted. The average believer can't win a single soul, carry the burden of the church on his knees in prayer, operate in never-say-die faith, talkless of casting out a single demon. We speak abrakadabra yet flee at the sight of coakroaches. We copy the manifestation but lacks the impartation.
The early disciples got an infilling of the holy spirit, and He gave them utterance. An utterance means vocal expression or manner of speaking. The Holy spirit "gave" them utterance (Acts2:4). There was a filling before the speaking. And the speaking was directed and orchestrated by the Holy ghost. But what do we have nowadays, "classroom lecturers" that believe they can engineer the methodology of the invisible one and a pure fire laden heavenly language. Some even collect offering after such charade. Even unbelievers are conscripted and taught to speak without a single iota of consideration that these are dark lost souls in need to salvation. The house of prayers has turned into a den of thieves. Charlatans marauding d temples and luring away gullible ones all in the name of power and miracles.
........."Thine enemies roar in the midst of thy congregations; They set up their ensigns for signs".....(ps74,4)
This is a clear indication that most of the roarings we hear in our churches today are not that of the Lion of the tribe of Judah. Where is the shout of the king amongst us? Our case has become the case of the psalmist lamenting with deep burden saying....
We see not our signs; there is no more any prophet: neither is there among us any that knoweth how long. (Ps74,9)
But the truth is that the Holy spirit remains the only custodian and administrator of power in the body of Christ. If the church will place the Speaking before the infilling, they would have only relegated the heavenly pattern and the Holy spirit to the background, and automatically become prey to demonic interferences and manifestations in the body of Christ. Speaking in tongues is a powerful tool for navigating the spirit realm. The devil doesn't understand its mystery and is overly weakened when it's operation is accurately and divinely applied.
The church must seek him earnestly to be genuinely filled and empowered. He still waits for a companion, a weary and longing soul, a pilgrim's heart so tasty for waters... Waters so divine that it springs from the rock of ages.
..... "O my dove, that art in the clefts of the rock, in the secret places of the stairs, let me see thy countenance, let me hear thy voice, for sweet is thy voice, and thy countenance is comely"... Sos2:14
Finally, let's ask ourselves.... are we a chatter box that makes earthly noises but lacks the keys that strike the chords of heavenly melody? This language is not learnt in any school or authored by man cos he neither understands it or can even start to fathom it's origin. It is a language of mysteries and voices only understood by angels, that goes straight to the heart of the throne.
