Peter replied, "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off - for all whom the Lord will call." (Acts 2:38-39)
Today's blog post is just to emphasize the need for the Holy Spirit.
We have been praying for God to release His Holy Spirit on us afresh. It may seem that this prayer is just for us. No! It's not. It's bigger than us. It's for our children too and even those who are far off; for all whom the Lord will call.
The Bible goes on to say: With many other words he warned them; he pleaded with them, "Save yourselves from this corrupt generation." (Acts 2:40) So by asking for the Holy Spirit, we are securing our futures; we're ensuring that the generations are safe! Our children need us; our families need us, whether they know it or not. The generations to come need us! We have to stand in the gap!
What I love about this Scripture is that it says it's a promise! (Acts 2:38) God is certain to answer our prayer for the Holy Spirit, with us and future generations in mind!
