God’s promise on pouring on the Holy Spirit on you & me


Joel 2    God’s promise on pouring on the Holy Spirit on you & me
16 No, what you see was predicted long ago by the prophet Joel:
17 ‘In the last days,’ God says, ‘I will pour out my Spirit upon all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy. Your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams.
18 In those days I will pour out my Spirit even on my servants—men and women alike— and they will prophesy.

19 And I will cause wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below— blood and fire and clouds of smoke.
20 The sun will become dark, and the moon will turn blood red before that great and glorious day of the LORD arrives.

21 But everyone who calls on the name of the LORD will be saved.’

Following the Leadership of Jesus


Luke 6:46-49
46 “So why do you keep calling me ‘Lord, Lord!’ when you don’t do what I say? 
47 I will show you what it’s like when someone comes to me, listens to my teaching, and then follows it. 
48 It is like a person building a house who digs deep and lays the foundation on solid rock. 
When the floodwaters rise and break against the house, it stands firm because it is well built.
49 But anyone who hears and doesn’t obey is like a person who builds a house without a foundation. 
When the floods sweep down against that house, it will collapse into a heap of ruins.
