The Holy Spirit catches our attention for God's purposes. God's glory caused Ezekiel to fall upon his face. When God told him to stand up, he couldn't do it. Then the Holy Spirit entered him, and lifted him up on his feet. Then God spoke to him, and Ezekiel got the message - loud and clear.

"And when He spoke to me, the Spirit entered into me and set me upon my feet; and I heard Him speaking to me" (Ezekiel 1:28-2:8).

God sent him on the "mission impossible" to be the prophet for Israel, a rebellious nation who wasn't listening to Him. God granted Ezekiel the permission to address the crowds with the phrase: "Thus says the Lord God... (Ezekiel 2:4).

The Holy Spirit gave the believers the "gift of prophecy" to call people to repent (1 Cor. 12:10). He still operates the same way today empowering His people with the Gifts of the Holy Spirit. (Heb. 13:8)
 
The Holy Spirit is the one who catches our attention and speaks to us about what God wants us to do. The Spirit "will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will declare (tell) to you the things that are to come" (John 16:13).

He cooperates with God, our Father, who sits on the Heavenly throne. The Holy Spirit is "God inside of us," who stirs and lifts us up to get our full attention, making it possible to hear His voice. 


Are You in Rebellion with the Holy Spirit?

The work of the Holy Spirit is paramount in our lives. His role is to convict us of our sin, and guide us into all truth and righteousness - a right relationship with Jesus. The Holy Spirit warns us when we are in danger, and reveals to us our future. He brings to our remembrance the appropriate scriptures, and give us the words of what to say when needed.
 
He is our appointed counsellor and teacher; given to us from our Heavenly Father. With Him as our guide, we can experience an exciting and victorious Christian life! Without Him, it is impossible to fulfil God's plan for our lives, no matter how hard we try.
 
"But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you." (Jn. 14:16)

At the Church of Assemblies of God in Joinville, Brazil, the Pastor brought a very tall man, at least 6 and 1/2 feet tall, to the altar. The Pastor said, “He says that he has a demon!” I asked the man to explain some of the weird things that had happened to him. He told me that he could not control his body, and was often thrown to the floor shaking uncontrollably. He was told by the demon to do bad things. 
 
Then I asked him, “Are you willing to receive Jesus as your Saviour, and receive the Baptism of the Holy Spirit?” He agreed! I prayed with him and cast out anything that was not of Jesus. Then I commanded the evil spirits to leave and go to the abyss (Lk. 8:31). He received the Baptism of the Holy Spirit and began to speak in his tongues language with the signs following (Mk. 16:17– 18). Amen!

The Need for Workers to Minister the Gospel (Matt. 9:35-38)
 
Jesus traveled throughout the cities and villages teaching in synagogues, preaching the gospel, and healing every disease and infirmity. When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; pray therefore the Lord of the harvest to send more laborers into his harvest" (Matt. 9:38).

Jesus is the same today as He was yesterday! He is still equipping the saints – those who have received Salvation and the authentic Baptism of the Holy Spirit. When we witness to others with testimonies using the “signs following” (Mk. 16:17–20), the Gifts of the Holy Spirit; and with signs, wonders and various miracles (Heb. 2:4), people get saved and healed! Amen! (Rom. 12:6–8; 1 Cor. 12:8–10)

We have the best harvest when we share our personal testimonies with others. Where ever I travel, people tell me they seek to find churches where the miracles are really happening! The good news is that in our ministry, we have many churches where the miracles are happening! See a list of our house churches here.

Gordon continues to receive invitations to minister and preach the gospel all around the world. Because of your prayerful help, he does not charge fees to these churches or ministries that invite him, regardless of their size. Like the Apostle Paul, Gordon is led by the Holy Spirit, and asks for a love offering gift to allow him to continue to accept invitations anywhere in the world.

Please pray and continue to be a “cheerful giver” (2 Cor. 9:7) asking Jesus how you can contribute. Throughout 2018, help us to increase the harvest of people of all ages into the Kingdom of God!
