Pentecost Sunday March 20, 2018

Pentecost experience is about harvest. We ask the question: How do we get the people in here?  We have a message the community needs!  We are the “spiritual cultivators” of this region (James 5:7).  We sow the seed.  The rains are God’s part. Then we pick our fruit.  The heathen/lost are our fruit, our inheritance for the Word we have sown!  The latter rain comes after the seed is planted. We are instructed to pray.  1 Timothy 2:1-4 instructs how, what, who, and why we pray.  It is God’s will that all be saved. Romans 8:20-28  God wants to use you in prayer (1) groaning: God is in you (spirit) praying out His will. (2) I will ( 1 Corinthinans 14:13) I will pray with my spirit (not God will)!  How does your spirit pray?  With utterances of the Holy Ghost.  God can’t do anything on this earth without a body. He will let you in on secrets, mysteries and insights! Rom. 8:28 is often quoted…but we know that all things work together for good- when?  After we pray in the spirit! We are praying the plan back to God!
