THE BAPTISM IN THE HOLY SPIRIT: Pt 2.

February 28, 2021


When the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had accepted the

word of God, they sent Peter and John to Samaria. When they arrived, they

prayed for the new believers there that they might receive the Holy Spirit,

because the Holy Spirit had not yet come on any of them; they had simply

been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Then Peter and John placed

their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit. ACTS 8:14-17



The Scriptures do not give a formula for receiving the Baptism

of the Holy Spirit, but the following considerations will be

helpful:



1. THE BAPTISM IN THE SPIRIT IS A GIFT.


SCRIPTURE: Acts 1:4, Acts 2:38, Acts 10:45


2. ALL BELIEVERS CAN RECEIVE.


SCRIPTURE: Numbers 11:29, Joel 2:28-29, Acts 1:8


3. THE SPIRIT ALREADY INDWELLS WITHIN BELIEVERS:


SCRIPTURE: Romans 8:15–17, Ephesians 1:13–14, 1 Corinthians 12:13


4. PRAYER & PRAISE OFTEN LEAD THE WAY


SCRIPTURE: Psalms 109:30, Acts 13:2, Acts 16:25-26


5. WE MUST HAVE BOTH EXPECTANCY AND OPENNESS.


SCRIPTURE: Psalm 27:13, Luke 8:5, Ephesians 1:18


6. “SPECIAL BLESSINGS” CAN OCCUR ALONG THE WAY.


SCRIPTURE: Acts 10:46, Acts 11:15-17


7. GOD WILL NOT PERMIT SINCERE SEEKERS TO HAVE A ‘COUNTERFEIT’ EXPERIENCE.


SCRIPTURE: John 16:13, Luke 11:11-13


8. GOD’S TIMING MAY DIFFER FROM OURS.


SCRIPTURE: Psalms 18:30, Lamentations 3:25




BONUS: INWARD – UPWARD – OUTWARD
