We, as God’s sons and daughters, have to rise up to the level of His Word, and believe the Word, and carry God’s Word to the world. Whenever you do that it will take the “L” out of the world, because when you take God’s Word you end up with the “L” out of the world, and there is plenty to take out.
The last words that Jesus Christ spoke with his people are:
Acts 1:8:
But ye shall [absolute tense] receive [lambanō, receive into manifestation] power [dunamis], after that the Holy Ghost [pneuma hagion, holy spirit, the gift] is come upon you:...
The text should read “when” and not “after,” because, every born-again believer should immediately manifest the dunamis after they are born again. Biblically, the manifestation is speaking in tongues, for speaking in tongues is the external manifestation of the internal reality and presence of God in Christ in you, holy spirit. And that is exactly what you get at the moment you are born again. You have the dunamis; it is the potential or latent spiritual power. It becomes kinetic when you exercise it. I have seen, many times through the years, that people were taught ahead of time and were instructed about speaking in tongues, and how it operates and then, when they were born again, they immediately manifested; they spoke in tongues.
Acts 1:8 continued:
...and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem [where it occurred], and in all Judaea, and in Samaria [going out further], and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
