God the Holy Spirit is the third Person of the Holy Trinity. He sanctifies us by the power of God. The Holy Spirit gives us faith to trust in the redeeming blood of Jesus, "No one who is speaking by the Spirit of God says, 'Jesus be cursed,' and no one can say,(Jesus is Lord,) except by the Holy Spirit," Corinthians 12:3. Holiness is our act of worship to serve God and a total commitment to the Lordship of Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit is our teacher, comforter, counselor, witness, gift of faith and prayer in the name of Jesus, joy, sanctified, and so many more attributes. The daily filling and indwelling of the Holy Spirit is taught repeatedly in the Bible.
This coming week on May 31 is Pentecost Sunday, the outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon the believers. This is a major Jewish Festival, the ingathering of the harvest of first fruits. We Christians apply this high and holy festival with the ingathering of souls for the kingdom of God. It saddens me that Pentecost Sunday is hardly mentioned if at all. I challenge ministers to preach the coming of the Holy Spirit on this holy day, and how it applies to us. Here is a suggestive text, Acts 2:14-41. If you do, your preaching will have a powerful anointing. Study the book of Acts which is in reality the Acts of the Holy Spirit. Pray to the Spirit of God to fully take control of your life.

These seamen are mainly Buddhists. I asked one of them, "Who is Jesus?" His answer was most profound which many so called christians don't know. He said with conviction, "Jesus is God." I led him in a simple prayier confessing this holy Jesus as his personal savior.
Jesus is God. He lives forever. Because Jesus lives, we also will live. The message we proclaim in the death, burial and resurrection of our Savior. Jesus broke the curse of sin and death. Now we have a new beginning. The tomb is empty. Jesus is alive in me.Thanks to Gid for his indescribable Gift. By faith I liove for Jesus and have eternal life.
Next week, we'll share with you the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit.

Please continue to pray for Tom Malone as he was overnight in the hospital coughing
up blood. Coumadim, a blood thinner, caused his blood to be too thin. This is an effective, but dangerous medication which constantly has to be checked. It helps to prevent clots and strokes. All the tests were negative, and his medication was adjusted. He thanked God for this powerful medication which is helping him to be alive, but it has to be closely monitored. Let him remind you that we're in a great spiritual warfare as never before in these end times. Stand firm against Satan by putting on the full armor of God. In Eph. 6:10-20 we are to fasten the belt of Truth, breastplate of righteousness, feet of peace, shield of faith, helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God.
