On that fateful day of Pentecost, power came down from on high. For it originated with God’s presence and His Kingdom, that’s far beyond our sky. The ascension of Christ had been witnessed, with Him clearly rising above the clouds; He was no longer bound by planetary constraint and the opinionated amazement of the crowd. Upon the Earth, a violent breeze blew; it brought forth ‘winds of change’ into the hearts of men. This first outpouring of the Holy Spirit reinforced God’s abundant Love, for us all once again. The power of Jehovah had appeared, as ‘tongues of fire’ above the people’s heads - Thus fulfilling an Old Testament prophesy, as the prophet Joel had previously illustrated. The spiritual battles are fought today inside the imagination of our minds; cleanse your thoughts with The Word and shift your ideals with His holy paradigm. God has promised in The Scriptures that He will never leave us nor forsake us. His comforting Spirit remains along side as we now await - the final return of Christ Jesus. --------- Learn more about me and my poetry at: http://www.squidoo.com/book-isbn-1419650513/ Logic, when applied to people, fails miserably! --Joseph J.

The day of Pentecost as expressed in Acts as well as our very own personal day of infilling is a wonderful thing to bring to remembrance and I thought you did a very good job of expressing it through your poem. The verse your poem brought to my mind was … “And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever.” John 14:16 KJV Thank you for sharing and God bless you, -Bob |
