Directive # 17- May 5, 2014
SCRIPTURE
Acts 10:44
“While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all those who heard the word.”
INTERPRETATION
An outpouring of the Holy Spirit cannot be planned, but needs to be wanted and waited for. We need people to spend time and efforts in looking for a new movement, and continue the outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon the church. I have a profound desire for a powerful outpouring of the Holy Spit upon us. That every single church, every member of the church, every leader and minister can experience a continuing visitation of the Holy Spirit.
