Text: Joel 2:28-32

28And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:

29And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit.

30And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke.

31The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come.

32And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call.

Key Verse: “And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions” (Joel 2:28).

Message

Reinhard Bonnke declared, “You must desire the fire and claim your flame!” Alas, many young people have substituted this inestimable experience with mundane things. With the spiritual gifts in you, you have the potential to do the “greater works” that our Lord Jesus promised (John 14:12). The gifts are nine in number and listed by Apostle Paul as: wisdom, knowledge, faith, healing, miracles, prophecy, discerning of spirits, and different kinds of tongues and interpretation of tongues (1 Corinthians 12:8-10). They are all available for successful Christian service.

Being born again is the first Christian experience; and it entitles you to the fruit of the Spirit. Thereafter, you should consecrate to God, get sanctified and pray to be baptized in the Holy Spirit. He will give you the gifts of the Spirit as a faithful Father. You are a potential candidate for the supernatural gifts if you are a saved child of God. People like Billy Graham, T. L. Osborn and David Yongi Cho got saved as youths and were empowered for fruitful service. God can fill you and use you too

Quote: God can fill you

Challenge: You need spiritual gifts to do exploit.

Prayer for today: Holy Father, give me these gifts for exploits in Jesus’ name.

GOSPEL REALM: STEPS TO SALVATION
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
