The Holy Spirit is the most misunderstood, neglected and even rejected of the Trinity – ‘the displaced person of the Godhead’. Yet Jesus loved to speak of him. While he had ‘an infinite variety of subjects from which to choose … the one upon which He dwelt most largely was the endowment of the Holy… Continue reading →

50 young people from across Western Australia spent this last weekend reflecting on the Book of Acts, praying, listening to God, experiencing the presence of the Holy Spirit, reading their Bibles – and discussing how God may want them to relate the gospel to their unchurched friends.

In his daily devotional, Welcome, Holy Spirit, Garrie Williams surveys the life and activity of the Holy Spirit by looking at reference to Him in the Bible.

How it Started!

It started when a few churches in central California decided to hold a 10-day prayer event – after the experience of the believers in Acts 2. Each evening between 7 and 8 pm the people met to read the scripture stories of the Holy Spirit’s anointing and then prayed. Sometimes they prayed silently, other times in groups… Continue reading →

A Person!

Jesus is the greatest gift God has given to us – the gift of Himself. (John 3:16) And the Holy Spirit is the second greatest gift – also the gift of Himself. The Holy Spirit is a very special person. Unfortunately, too many Christians are unsure of the Spirit or their relationship with Him. Some… Continue reading →

The Holy Spirit is introduced in the first stories of both Old and New Testaments. In the first story of the Old Testament “the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters” (Gen 1:2) – bring order from chaos. This was creation.

What is the Latter Rain?

posted in Spirit - prayer, Spirit - revolution on March 16, 2007 by peter 2 Comments

The idea of ‘latter rain’ (or ‘late rain’) comes from Joel’s Old Testament prophecy – and God’s response to the challenge, “Where is their God?” (Joel 2:17) He declared: “Be glad, O people of Zion, rejoice in the LORD your God, for he has given you the autumn rains in righteousness. He sends abundant showers,… Continue reading →
