From the Frontline-Episode 260-Pentecost Sunday and the Power of the Holy Spirit

From the Frontline: the Power of Pentecost

28 May is Pentecost Sunday. What is the significance of Pentecost? How is Pentecost Sunday relevant to the church today? What does the Bible teach concerning Spiritual warfare and spiritual weapons? What are we as Christians called to do when confronted by so much evil in the world today? We need Christians endued with supernatural power to win the spiritual war at present raging (Acts 1:8). There are far too many of our friends, families and churches that are being undermined, chained and crippled by the forces of evil (2 Corinthians 4:4). The time has come to rise up and go out in the power of God’s Spirit and annihilate wickedness and worldliness. We must set the prisoners free (Isaiah 61:1). We must win the victory (Romans 8:37). We must win our world for Jesus (1 John 5:4) and in the power of the Holy Spirit and in the Name of Jesus we shall, we must, we will prevail. In order to set free the prisoners of sin and satan the Lord has given believers power to bind evil (Matthew 12:19). We can restrict, limit and oppose the powers of rebellion, doubt, unbelief, sin, perversion, slavery and hatred (Matthew 18:18). We have power to overcome the gates of hell, to storm the very strongholds of evil (Matthew 16:18-19) and to set the prisoners free (Luke 11:22). To announce liberty to the captives (Luke 4:18). Even the demons must obey us when we give them a command in Jesus Name (Luke 10:17; Acts 16:18; Mark 16:17). This is because, as we place ourselves in submission to the power of God, we are able to resist the lesser power of the enemy (James 4:7).

“Greater is Him who is in us, than him who is in the world.”

1 John 4:4
