Text of the page (random words):
ye shall be witnesses unto me both in jerusalem and in all judaea and in samaria and unto the uttermost part of the earth acts 1 8 as said at the beginning man has always sought after that superhuman power often the desire for such power comes forth from pride or some other carnal desire there was a time when the disciples wanted to call fire down from heaven to destroy a town that would not receive them on their journey jesus said you do not know what manner of spirit you are of luke 9 54 the purpose of the power is so that we may be witnesses sometimes this may involve miracles signs and wonders but more often than not it involves the demonstration of the power of a changed and holy life jesus told peter when thou art converted changed strengthen thy brethren luke 22 32 peter so fearful for his own life that he denied the lord three times was changed by the power of the holy ghost to the extent that when he was arrested and sentenced to die he slept so soundly the night before his execution that the angel had to slap him on the side to wake him up before he could be delivered acts 12 7 the apostle peter wrote to the gentile women that had become christians after already being married to unbelievers that with their godly lifestyle they could win their husbands to christ without preaching to them 1 peter 3 2 the purpose of the power is to change the purpose for going out into the deepest part of the river of god is so that you will surrender your control completely to the holy spirit your feet no longer touch the bottom you are swept along whithersoever the current of the spirit of god desires to take you john the baptist said of jesus he must increase but i must decrease john 3 30 when we cast ourselves out into the deep we are completely surrendering every part of ourselves to the power of the holy spirit we are holding nothing back no sin no habit no personal desire no preconceived notion or idea nothing only when we empty ourselves of ourselves do we become an empty vessel that he can fill for his glory if a man therefore purge himself from these he shall be a vessel unto honor sanctified and meet for the master s use and prepared unto every good work 2tim 2 21 but we have this treasure in earthen vessels that the excellency of the power may be of god and not of us 2cor 4 7 when we surrender every recess of our being to the power of the holy spirit for change then every act we do in his name will come from a pure heart with pure intentions miracles signs and wonders will occur when needed and god not ourselves will receive the glory and others not ourselves will be helped how can i receive this total surrender the same way that the first disciples did by faith in the power of the resurrection next the power of the resurrection

witnesses unto me both in jerusalem and in all judaea and in samaria and unto the uttermost part of the earth acts 1 8 waters to the waist and when the man that had the line in his hand went forth eastward he measured a thousand cubits and he brought me through the waters the waters were to the ankles eze 47 3 again he measured a thousand and brought me through the waters the waters were to the knees again he measured a thousand and brought me through the waters were to the loins eze 47 4 afterward he measured a thousand and it was a river that i could not pass over for the waters were risen waters to swim in a river that could not be passed over eze 47 5 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 acts 2 1 2 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 3 4 there are those theologians who will say that at the point of salvation we receive all of the holy spirit that there is that may be true but if we rightly divide the word of god we can see that there are two distinct encounters with the holy ghost there is the point that we receive him and there is the point when we are filled with him those same theologians will say that no second experience with the holy spirit is necessary however jesus knew that it was so necessary that he commanded his disciples not to begin their great commission until they had received it the early church knew that this power from on high was so necessary that whenever they encountered believers who had not received it they made sure that they were filled with the holy ghost also now when the apostles which were at jerusalem heard that samaria had received the word of god they sent unto them peter and john who when they were come down prayed for them that they might receive the holy ghost acts 8 14 15 for as yet he was fallen upon none of them only they were baptized in the name of the lord jesus then laid they their hands on them and they received the holy ghost acts 8 16 17 he said unto them have ye received the holy ghost since ye believed and they said unto him we have not so much as heard whether there be any holy ghost acts 19 2 when they heard this they were baptized in the name of the lord jesus and when paul had laid his hands upon them the holy ghost came on them and they spake with tongues and prophesied acts 19 5 6 these theologians might also say that this experience of being filled with the holy ghost was only for the early church in order that it might be established they believe that we do not need such signs and wonders today they base their belief on first corinthians 13 8 10 charity never faileth but whether there be prophecies they shall fail whether there be tongues they shall cease whether there be knowledge it shall vanish away 1cor 13 8 for we know in part and we prophesy in part but when that which is perfect is come then that which is in part shall be done away 1cor 13 9 10 they say that once the bible was completed then that which is perfect had come and the miraculous signs of the holy ghost were no longer needed or given by god by not rightly dividing the word of truth they deny the power thereof one look at verse 12 and we realize that the perfection spoken of by the apostle paul is referring to the return of christ when our bodies shall be changed like unto his glorious body and as the scripture says we shall see him as he is 1 john 3 2 for now we see through a glass darkly but then face to face now i know in part but then shall i know even as also i am known 1cor 13 12 as we look at the prophecy of ezekiel concerning the river we see that each depth must be reached first before we can go further we cannot just jump out into the middle and receive the fullness of the river the fullness of the anointing and power of god we must first be drawn by the spirit the waters to the ankles john 6 44 no man can come to me except the father which hath sent me draw him and i will raise him up at the last day we must be born again the waters to the knees romans 10 9 10 that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the lord jesus and shalt believe in thine heart that god hath raised him from the dead thou shalt be saved for with the heart man believeth unto righteousness and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation we must be filled with the holy ghost the waters to the loins or the waist luke 11 13 if ye then being evil know how to give good gifts unto your children how much more shall your heavenly father give the holy spirit to them that ask him if you have not yet asked him simply ask the heavenly father to fill you with the holy ghost and he will do it now we are out in the water to our waist the current of the river has control of our legs and is pulling us in the right direction we are being led by the spirit of god but we are still standing on our feet before we can have the faith to take the next step and launch out into the waters to swim in to leap out into the full force of the current and the depth of the power of god we need to realize the purpose of the river why do we need to go out into the deep next waters to the waist all twelve books in the how to walk christian series by raymond candy are available now in one collection of two volumes for 6 99 each at bn com for the nook
