No limit to the Holy Spirit🛤🌈🌌

limitless-edit

^{John 3:34}For the one whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for God gives the Spirit without limit.

Today I’m going to be speaking about this bible verse that God gave me. Not many will like what I’m going to be speaking or writing about; however it’s necessary for us to dwell a little deeper in this section that many don’t even go there. Many churches, minister, worshipers and christian are passive in this. Many believe that the Holy Spirit is a being that is dormant in us; that his only function is to guide us and bring peace in our hearts during a difficult trial. And some believe that you are not supposed to have the Holy Spirit; that the Holy Spirit was only for the disciples and Israelite that were baptized after Jesus was resurrected.

Many american churches and non-american have taken the manifestation of the holy spirit from their churches because many believe that is not actually the Holy Spirit manifesting but the person is acting or it could be a demonic possession. In the bible it is written that after Jesus was baptized in the waters the Holy Spirit descended upon him.

Matthew 3:16

As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. At that moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting on him.

The word alight means to settle or stay in the dictionary. After his baptism in the waters he was guided by the Holy Spirit to the wilderness so he could fast for forty days and forty nights. He was tempted multiple times by the devil and he refuse every single offer that the devil made to him. The holy spirit was already guiding him in here for the miracles that Jesus would do after those fasting days and nights.

Matthew 4:1

Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.

Jesus did many miracles after his baptism in the waters and with the Holy Spirit. For example we have the Weddings of Canaan, woman with bleeding flow, the rise of Jairus daughter, we got various deliverance from demonic possessions.

Mark 5:27:30

When she heard about Jesus, she came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak,²⁸because she thought, “If I just touch his clothes, I will be healed.”²⁹Immediately her bleeding stopped and she felt in her body that she was freed from her suffering.

³⁰At once Jesus realized that power had gone out from him. He turned around in the crowd and asked, “Who touched my clothes?”

In the bible it those not speak of any miracles of Jesus before his baptisms( in water & Holy Spirit) but it those give account to those after he was baptized. When God baptized his son with the Holy Spirit he gave the Spirit without limit and his son was able to do all of this miracles that made him known through Israel. Another example would be the day of the Pentecost and the baptism of the Holy Spirit to those there.

Acts 2:2-4

And suddenly there came from heaven a noise like a violent rushing wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. ³ And there appeared to them tongues as of fire distributing themselves, and they rested on each one of them. ⁴ And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit was giving them utterance.

It’s says in the book of Acts that they were speaking in different tongues and those of the nationality of the tongue would understand them speaking about the mighty deeds of God( Acts 2:11) but some would mock them and say the they were “Sweet on Wine”( Acts 2:13).

Acts 19:6

And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they began speaking with tongues and prophesying.

unbelief-is-our-only-limit

Another example would be the shadow of peter. It’s written in the bible that by his shadow only people were healed and freed from evil spirits ( Acts 5:15 ) this did not happen because peter had power but because the holy spirit rested in peter. It was the Holy Spirit doing the miracles through peter. Churches, ministers, worshipers and believers need that in their lives. We need that awakening that was in the Old church. we need the prophesying, with speaking in tongues and deliverance of spirits. Did you know that when the Holy Spirit manifest that is a different way for you to speak with God without the enemy knowing. As for deliverance many of us still Christians need deliverance from something that we are holding unto. Because we might go to church and be all christian like inside of church and outside to friends or family members but what about when we are alone in our houses. Are you still watching porn, masturbating, cursing, drinking, fornicating , adultering, being abuse and much more.

I speak through experience many of us got vices that you need to be delivered from if not at the least unexpected moment you will fall back into those addictions and vices. Worship is something fundamental; it’s a way to please and give the honor and glory to our God. But if you have not been baptized what can you give to the people. Are you gonna give them the doubts, blame, shame, hatred and much more that you are feeling in that moment instead of the peace, love, mercy and forgiveness that will be in you when the Holy Ghost manifest itself through you as a vessel.

I will be criticized for speaking the absolute truth but it’s time that people speak up. Don’t you think the Holy Spirit gets sad when he sees that churches, ministers, believers and worshipers don’t want him in their lives and churches. Do you think it pleases the Lord and the Holy Ghost that instead of the church wanting that connection with God through the Holy Spirit during worship are instead focused on the dramas, the skit dances and much more that is inside of churches nowadays.

I believe we have to use different ways to spread the gospel; however that should be done in the streets not inside of our church on top of our altars. The Altar is a Holy back in the days only the high priest was able to enter the Holiest of Holy but nowadays anyone can go on top. The Altar can’t be used as platform for that type of stuff; I believe the creators of this thought they were doing a good thing maybe they have for it to be used in the streets where unbelievers through one of those skit could be saved. However church is a different place; it’s the place where we have come to give the honor and glory to our God and to worship him. To give our absolute attention to him only not who is doing the dance right or playing the character right. You take the attention from God and at the end you left as you came.

That’s why we are seeing passive churches with passive youth and believers because they don’t have the Holy Spirit or they have suppressed him for things that take away his presence and gives in to our wants and desires. When God baptized Jesus with the Holy Spirit he gave it to him without limitations. And Jesus did many wonders and miracles as did the apostles but do you see that in churches nowadays. Our youth are spiritually dead; they can’t pray for more than five minutes if it’s possible less than that. Our churches are more involved in social media and this type of stuff then having that close connection with God. Do you think God wants a passive church or someone that doesn’t believe in the trinity?

Revelation 3:16

So, because you are lukewarm–neither hot nor cold–I am about to spit you out of my mouth.

Are you ready for the coming of Christ? Is the church ready? Are you Hot or Cold? you need to decide if it’s the time to act or to continue being passive at church. We as a church in general need to be ready not preparing ourselves to be ready.

John 14:12-14

12 Truly, truly, I tell you, whoever believes in Me will also do the works that I am doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. 13 And I will do whatever you ask in My name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If you ask Me anything in My name, I will do it.

James 1:21💕💕💕🗣🗣🗣

Humanity Vs God..

Why is there so much violence in this world?🌎

Why is there so much violence in this world???

Is it because we think that we are superior from one another? Is it our hatred towards other nationalities? Or is it the religious side of it?

What has given and who has given us the right to kill innocent people just for our own beliefs, wants and desires. Who are we to take a life without mercy and compassion. What has become of this humanity that instead of spreading love towards one another; we instead incite fear and hatred in the hearts of other people.

I truly believe that we have lost the mercy and compassion but most of all the love for human beings. There is so much violence in this world that sometimes I just get sick of watching news after news about a shooting, bombing and homicide. This world is becoming more darker as the days become shorter. I don’t know if you can’t feel this huge oppression in the air. Some might call me crazy but there is no peace at night. No one can go anywhere without being armed or no one can sleep at their own home without an alarm system.

1 Thessalonians 5:2

“For you yourselves know full well that the day of the Lord will come just like a thief in the night”

What are we doing?

To stop this spread of violence, I believe that we need to really turn back to God. The world has done whatever it wanted. When I talk about the world I’m not talking about earth itself but us the humans that live in this planet. We have turn our back to God, because he is not a huge thing. He does not give you the riches of the world, he does not give you fame, he does not give you constant sexual relationships or normal ones. All our reasons for having giving our back to God is going to come back.

2 Timothy 3:2

For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous,boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents,unthankful, unholy,

We humans need structure; you might think you know everything or that there is no higher power out there that watches your every move and every thought. But at the end of all of this destruction will come for humanity. We have been rebellious toward someone that gave his only son to die and be torture in a cross for our sins. That someone that as a father loved his child but he knew that if that sacrifice was not made we would never have the opportunity to be face to face with him. He chose to give salvation and redemption to a humanity that constantly sins and has always being ungrateful and has stomped on that blood and sacrifice. And he continues to be merciful towards this humanity but a moment will come that his wrath will descend upon us for our sins and transgression.

John 317

“For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.”

It’s time for us to go back toward that God that is merciful, compassionate, loving but also wrathful. It’s time to live under his commandments not our flesh desires and wants. What are you humanity doing to this beautiful planet and the lives that were created here.? It’s so tragic that nowadays we live in fear because we don’t know the intentions of our neighbors or friends. I ask anyone that reads this post to pray for your neighbors, community and even state; its time to rise up this country in prayer. Love one another as if you are blood related and show kindness and compassion but most of all Love to the needy.

P.S. Lets keep praying for violence to decrease in this world. May God bless you all, Shalom.

Like a Rushing 💨 💨💨 Wind🗣

Tonight I want to talk about this amazing experience I had with the Holy Spirit tonight. If you guys don’t know I come from a Latino Pentecostal church. You know that type of church a lot of people call the “Hallelujah’s” or the ‘Religious one”. I do love some of the names people come up with to describe us. I been raised in that type of church since early childhood; I remember my Grandma just taking me to one near our house back then. Now my current church or the church I used to go to are not the same as the one where I grew up in. That one was a little bit more “mellow”.

“Like a rushing wind
Jesus breathe within
Lord have Your way
Lord have Your way in me”

– Hillsong United

This song kind of summons up what I feel like in his presence.

Now I don’t know how many of you have been raised in one or are attending one in this moment. It doesn’t specifically have to be a latino Pentecostal church; it can be a black pentecostal church or white. But you know that when the fire of the Holy Spirit comes down to that place; many of you will be leaving completely different. I been raised in a Pentecostal church since childhood and there was a time when I let go of the reins so that the Holy Spirit could work on me; however as I got older I became self-conscious about what people might think about me. I know right; that was bad of me and bad for me because, even though I stop letting the Holy Spirit take complete control of my life in a single moment and I felt as if I was missing something; people would continue to stare and whisper all the time. It became a bad habit for me, I never gave him complete freedom and now that I’m older it has become more difficult for me to sometimes go into the presence; while worship or the Word is being preached.

However tonight was something completely different; since the start of the service there was this presence in the atmosphere that I just wanted to dance and jump around the whole place. And when the music started to play it felt like a fire was starting to flicker around the place. By the second song the air in the church felt HOT it felt like a furnace and I’m not exaggerating. In a moment that I closed my eyes and just decided to let the Holy Spirit have freedom to move in my life; I really don’t know what happened but one moment I was twirling and jumping just as the song was asking and I felt this presence sucker punch me in my whole body. I remember going in circle and feeling sluggish but at the same time I felt like I was burning from the inside out. Words were coming out of my mouth and I don’t even know what they meant and in one moment I hit the floor( BOOM). And I felt this immense need to cry and tears were leaking out my eyes. It’s an experience that I cherish a lot because even though they happen; they don’t always happen that often because I’m too self-conscious of what people will think. And what happened tonight reminded me of that verses in the Bible where John the Baptist was baptizing people in the Jordan Lake;

Matthew 3:11

““I baptize you with water, for repentance, but the one coming after me is more powerful than I am – I am not worthy to carry his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.”
‭‭

And when the disciples where congregated for the day of the Pentecost;

Acts 2:1-4

“Now when the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like a violent wind blowing came from heaven and filled the entire house where they were sitting. And tongues spreading out like a fire appeared to them and came to rest on each one of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit, and they began to speak in other languages as the Spirit enabled them.”
‭‭

Now don’t go thinking that I’m a religious freak because even though I believe in tongues and the Holy Spirit. I know that even if where to speak all languages of the world but I don’t have love for the homeless, needy, suicidal, prostitute, unbeliever, atheist, alcoholic, drug addict it doesn’t matter, Because for God we are all the same in his eyes. For me this type of stuff it’s special and an intimate thing but I want it to share about it with you guys. Why? You might ask yourselves because I want you guys to know that there is a living God that loves you and I for who we are. And also because when something like this happens I feel as if I’m in the presence of the Lord; I feel more closer to him. Don’t be thinking that I’m without flaws because In have so many; however his love and mercy forgives any transgression or sin I have committed before his presence.

(That’s me when I see one of my youth jumping, running or dancing in the Spirit.)

P.S. Have you guys seen the videos of this christian guys named Taylor Ransom; he makes videos about different type of church praises and church signs. He cracks me up; they are just that funny I like specifically the Pentecostal because it’s so true. We even have a Shofar😂😂😂.

Don’t forget to show the love of Jesus and kindness to everyone. Let’s continue to pray for this world there has been too much violence recently; don’t leave those country’s that are in need of GOD out of your prayers. And also remember to share, like and comment on the blog ; let’s share his Word. Love You Guys & God Bless All of You.

His Mercy

Titus‬ ‭3:5‬ ‭

“not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit.”

His mercy is never ending. By his mercy we are here today breathing. By his mercy we are his children. By his mercy we have salvation and eternal life. Don’t despair even though the world looks so bleak and it feels like there is no end to that hole; know that the Lord has everything in control in your life and in the world.

Even though the world is in chaos right now. His hand hovers over our lives to protect us from evil and the wickedness that is in this world. Don’t be afraid be grateful because he has the control and he is the only one that knows the future; he knows what will happen tomorrow while we are living in today.

This election was a terrible election we didn’t have good candidates. In one hand we have this woman that is with abortion and I’m not okay with that because as a christian I believe that God created us and he has given us a purpose that’s why he created us in our mothers womb. I don’t judge those women that have been victims of abuse and have aborted their babies it doesn’t mean that I’m okay with it. I respect their right it’s their bodies and it’s their problem with the Lord; they will give account just like I will when we are in front of the Lord.

Now I think the other we have a guy that’s is being accused of many things like narcissist, homophobic, racist and bunch more. As I Hispanic people will tell me “can you believe what this guy said.” I can; but am I gonna take in to account what this guys says about Hispanics first most and take it into myself believe that I am what he is saying; the answer is NO. I won’t because he is just a man that likes to open his mouth and talk nonsense and what matters to me is what my family thinks of me and what the Lord thinks of me, because he knows us inside out. Am I happy that he was elected president I don’t think so, what I am is okay with it because I trust God’s judgement and first most my faith is on him and I know that he will protect his children just like he protected the Israelites from the seven plagues in Egypt. I believe that God chose him for a reason; God has a plan and a purpose for this guy. It might be so that Israel has protection in this troubled times but my trust is in him.

Jeremiah 17:5

“The Lord says, “Those who trust in man are under my curse. They depend on human strength. Their hearts turn away from me.”

Psalm 91:1-2

“The person who rests in the shadow of the Most High God will be kept safe by the Mighty One. I will say about the Lord, “He is my place of safety. He is like a fort to me. He is my God. I trust in him.””
