Our Greatest Spiritual Asset
The Key to Receiving the Baptism of the Holy Spirit
Man oh man oh man!
Praise Jesus for all this new and wonderful information that keeps getting dumped down. At this point I figure it can be nothing less than an insult to our Heavenly Father to consider this “information download” to be anything other than divine / supernatural in nature.
WAIT UNTIL YOU HEAR THIS
Some Do and Some Don’t
All my life I have been wondering WHY some people seem to get the Baptism of the Holy Spirit and some don’t. The “key” word here is “seem” … so bear with me on this thought.
You see, behind the scenes here at Tribulation-Now, there are emails flying back and forth between myself, various key contributors, and email list members. As these communication dynamics occur, it seems to me that God’s divine providence and supernatural influence is in full play. But you have to be “looking for it” and you, like me, cannot believe in regular unexplainable coincidence. You have to know, like I do, that “everything is spiritual”. Then you see it unfold before your eyes. It’s really pretty awesome.
The Influence of Society, The Devil’s in the Details
Why did my Father not get the Baptism of the Holy Spirit? Why do women tend to get the Baptism of the Holy Spirit much more readily than men? Why did people receive the Baptism of the Holy Spirit so easily in the early 1900’s than they do now?
Behind the scenes of Tribulation-Now, in response to the article entitled “Take No Chances” (https://tribulation-now.org/2010/10/22/take-no-chances/), a number of emails were coming in from various people. It seems that many have questions about the Baptism of the Holy Spirit and particularly the Gift of Speaking in Tongues.
I have seen this dynamic all my life. People WANT to know more about it but they become discouraged when they either 1) dont’ get answers that match the scripture, 2) get answers that just don’t “make sense” or 3) try to receive the Baptism but don’t feel they were successful and become discouraged.
Connecting the Dots
I am re-learning the Bible all over again. Have you ever heard someone who considered themselves to be a Christian suggest that this or that was “OF THE DEVIL”? You can’t read that book, it’s OF THE DEVIL! Have you noticed that the church rarely ever even speaks of anything that refers to Satan’s tactics any more? You could write an entire book about this one subject alone. One of Lucifer’s BEST attacks on “christianity” has been to make ANY research or study of information that is outside the accepted Bible “canon” to be …
… OF THE DEVIL!
This is utterly ridiculous as many of us are FINALLY discovering. I call your attention to another one of my favorite Bible verses. Please pay very close attention to the meaning.
Luke 8:17-18
For nothing is secret that will not be revealed, nor anything hidden that will not be known and come to light. 18 Therefore take heed how you hear. For whoever has [been hearing properly], to him more will be given
NKJV
Do you understand this scripture? This scripture basically says that if you don’t OPEN YOUR MIND and let God speak to you and give you new potentially controversial information, you will NOT be given any more. God will meet you up and to the point of your ability to accept more information. Once you “close off your mind” you are no longer going to get any more data! Get it?
YOU MUST HAVE AN OPEN MIND
It is not optional.
GOD SAYS SO!
The Cosmic Connection
Everything is connected. Please let me repeat myself. Everything is CONNECTED. Think physics here. Think science here. Nothing really exists. Everything is made up of particles. Scientist have come to the recent conclusion that even the Universe is driven by “electro-magnetism”. Electro-Magnetism is an invisible force that affects all “particles”. This is why planets affect one another and it is the premise behind the notion of the “Butterfly Effect”.
The reason I make this point is that we have to stop “compartmentalizing” everything the way we do. This “limits” our ability to grasp complex interconnected things. We MUST open our minds to be able to take advantage of God’s infinite wisdom.
Now … that being said … GET THIS
As I was reading emails and making myself a cup of coffee this morning something hit me again like a ton of logs. You see, once again a number of people were interested in the concept of “Speaking on Tongues” as a function of receiving the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. The Lord has a way of getting involved in these conversations and emails come in from people in a supernatural “synchronicity” of sorts.
For example, one person will ask a particular question, and a couple hours later another person (who has NO IDEA about the first person) will answer it. I KID YOU NOT!! If you could see this from my side of the computer it would blow your mind.
SO …
As I am reading these emails I am thinking about all this stuff. WHY do some people get the Baptism of the Holy Spirit and some not? Why do some people get the Gift of Tongues and some not? This has been driving me up a wall for more than 30 years.
AND THEN IT HIT ME
What Makes Us Special in the Universe
I knew there had to be a reason why GOD had me research all this super creepy dark information all these years. The more I studied this information, the more lectures I listened to about how the “evil side” operated, the more I wondered how this was going to BENEFIT THE KINGDOM!! I secretly expected I might take a microphone and start a tour lecturing on the New World Order or about the Illuminati Empire to wake fellow Christians up. But the deeper I got into this dark material and the more cosmic the connections became, the more I saw a “saturation point”. There were already plenty of people out there telling the story and quite frankly there was a painfully evident “diminishing point of return“.
Most people simply didn’t seem to care.
Well perhaps here is JUST ONE example of how this research might have given us an ROI (Return on Investment).
Our Emotions Are Spiritually Unique
Remember the article entitled “End-Timeline Guesswork”? (https://tribulation-now.org/2010/10/09/end-timeline-guesswork/) In this article I pointed out a repeating theme regarding our uniqueness in the Universe. I could ramble on and on about this one subject. Evidently ONE of “mankind’s” extremely unique characteristics (amongst the smorgasbord of life forms and fallen angel varieties) is our emotions. Our emotions are UNBELIEVABLY unique.
Evidently, our SPIRITS have a special element we know of as “emotions”. The enemy covets our emotions. Our emotions are MAGICAL TO THEM! “They” NEED the power of our emotions. Please understand that 100% of all of my research indicates that the SATANISTS and the REPTILIANS, and the ALIEN LIFE FORMS, and the FALLEN ANGEL VARIETIES …
Our emotions allow THEM to TALK to their buddies in the other dimensions!!
Our emotions give THEM supernatural energy that “they” have figured out how to manipulate to their benefit.
Our emotions are arguable THE SINGLE MOST UNIQUE POWER in the ENTIRE UNIVERSE!!
Our emotions ARE THE ENERGY FORM that PERMITS TRAVEL to the THIRD HEAVEN!!!
And what are we taught to control more than anything? Our emotions. Why do THEY want us to all be on “anti-depressants? Our emotions. Why do THEY put sodium fluoride and lithium in our water? Our emotions.
Paul was a strong believer in praying in tongues. He said, “I pray in tongues more than you all.” The Spirit makes intercession for us as we do not know how to pray as we ought, but he makes intercession for us.This is only said to say this. Paul, because of his strong prayer life IN THE SPIRIT was able to endure the perilous things he had to go through…even his stay in prison.
If you have neglected this wonderful gift, and/or cast it aside as to no avail, because you didn’t feel something, or you saw the enemy’s manipulation and misuse of it in or out of churches, it’s time to pray for a renewing…a refreshing…a refilling of His Precious Holy Ghost for prayer and strength to prevail!! (Just don’t throw out the baby with the bath water.)
Things are shaping up, possibly for martial law. Are you sure you can make it without the overcoming power of the Holy Spirit and His wonderful gift to pray through you against what you may not know…
And, if you have not received this precious manifestation of His Spirit, ASK, as it tells you in …
Luke 11:9-13:
And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; Seek, and ye shall find; Knock, and it shall be opened unto you. [10] For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. [11] If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent? [12] Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion? [13] If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
Summary in Jesus Name
The best thing I can tell you is that people I personally know have received the Baptism of the Holy Spirit and Gift of Tongues when “PRAISING” Jesus through song and tears “EMOTIONALLY”.
My father was NOT an emotional man. He would always control his emotions. He never came close to experiencing God’s power in his life. I probably wouldn’t have received the Baptism of the Holy Spirit myself, except that I was 9 years old and didn’t know any better so I “let my emotions go”.
What was the REALLY BIG DIFFERENCE between the people in the early 1900’s and the people of today? Why did the people who sought after the Baptism of the Holy Ghost with Smith Wigglesworth get the Baptism THEN but we don’t seem to get it as often today?
Back in the early 1900’s it was not the end of the world if a man cried in public. Today you could be BAKER ACTED! This is an act of SATANIC CONTROL against God’s most WONDERFUL GIFT EVER. Emotions.
