Baptized In The Holy Spirit
If you have been Baptized then you already know what a release, a joy and renewal it is for the soul. If you haven’t, you should consider talking to your Pastor about the most significant changes a person can experience. Renewed in Christ, forgiven of all sin and a stillness that can not be described is what happened to me on July 8, 2018.
My first baptism was on December 6, 2002, the day I got sober, I should say it was more of trial by fire than a baptism, however, it was the day that I knew my life would be forever changed, and so far it has been.
Coming home to Jesus changes our lives in ways that are not easily explained. Before I was “dunked” it just seemed like something was happening. Then as I was under the surface, for just a moment, it felt like I was under water for hours. When I stood up the whole world appeared new.
Luke 15 NKJV
4 “What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he loses one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one which is lost until he finds it?
5 And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing.
6 And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying to them, Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!’
7 I say to you that likewise there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine just persons who need no repentance.
