Baptism Of Fire And Power – Kathy DeGraw

And He Who searches the hearts of men knows what is in the mind of the [Holy] Spirit [what His intent is, because the Spirit intercedes and pleads [before God] in behalf of the saints according to and in harmony with God’s will” (Rom. 8:26-27). When we don’t know how to pray for our friend’s mom or are too stressed to pray for our problems, the Holy Spirit co-labors with us as we pray. How wonderful to have a friend, a person of the Godhead, to co-labor in prayer with us.

The Holy Spirit is so many things to us that it is hard to address all of who He is and what He does for us in one article. I encourage you to read through Acts, 1 Corinthians 12, and other Scriptures to learn more about the Holy Spirit, your friend and Comforter. 1kitap1.com/en I’ve Fallen in the Spirit – What Do I Do Next? What Happens When We Fall in the Spirit and What Should Be Our Reaction?

Our first reaction when we have fallen in the Spirit and aren’t familiar with it can be, “Oh great. I have fallen in the Spirit, and everyone is looking at me. What do I do next?” What happens when we fall in the Spirit, and what should be our reaction? The best explanation I’ve heard of falling in the Spirit is that, when the supernatural (God) meets the natural (us), something has to give, and it is us that gives.

What should be our response? We should embrace it and discover what God has for us. When we fall in the Spirit, there can be many reactions, including: • Why is this happening to me? • What just happened? • Why did I feel woozy and fall? • Did the person praying over me push me?

• Everyone is looking at me. • That hurt. • I feel/look silly. • What do I do next? These are some of the realistic thoughts that may go through your mind. The first thing you should do is just relax and rest in the presence of the Lord. After all, you just fell under the power of God.

If you fell under the power of God, obviously there is a reason. Relax and enjoy the state of rest you are in. Most of all, don’t be in a hurry to get up. Stay on the floor, and focus on the Lord. Try not to think about what to do next or what is happening. And, most of all, don’t worry or concern yourself with what people around you are thinking. While we are in the presence of the Lord, there can be many things that are happening.

In Genesis 1:2 it says, “The earth was formless and void, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was moving over the surface of the water.” It is written in Genesis 2:7, “Then the Lord God formed man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life and man became a living being.”

The Spirit of God and the breath of God are one in the same. Adam became a living being when the breath of God came upon him. The Holy Spirit has been around forever, but, until Christ came and died for us, He did not dwell within people continually. Jesus’ ministry did not begin until He received His impartation of the Holy Spirit. Jesus was conceived by the power of the Spirit.

However, He did not attempt ministry without the Spirit’s power. The Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity. He is not an “it” or a ghost, but the third person of the Godhead.
