Pentecost Sunday

And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. 
Acts 2:1-4 

How do we really celebrate Pentecost? Is it just another Sunday to us? Or are we preparing ourselves for it long before it is actually here?  We read in the word that we are to expect the coming of the Holy spirit , that he is our gift from God to help us to live as children of God.

John 15:26 says *But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father* Acts 1;5 says* For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.* We have been told to expect the Holy Spirit's coming several times. Are we anticipating?

Jesus promised us a helper and comforter so we can come expecting to receive him unto us this very day. Though we can receive The Holy Spirit anytime, this is a day that God specifically set aside for us not only to recieve His Spirit but, for it to be such an event that it will cause many more to come to know him. Praise the Lord, I am expecting and yearning for that harvest of many souls are you?

Let's honor the Holy Spirit today and seek with all expectance His presence.
