The Spirit is Moving
All over the world, the Spirit is moving
All over the world, as the prophet said it would be
All over the world, there’s a mighty revelation
Of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea
Pentecost is still on. What happened in that first Pentecost in Jerusalem did not end there. The Spirit of God is still on the move. Over the course of the history of the church, there were ebb and flow, but the Spirit of God still moved and still does. If something or some people over whom He hovered would not catch the fire, He moved on to another.
As the Spirit moves, so does the other spirit. Where the work of God is strongest, the evil counter current is also present. A lot depends on how the men and women then respond, to the Spirit, or to the spirit.
It is a point to note that at that first Pentecost in Acts 2, the men and women in the upper room had been promised earlier by Jesus that He would send them His Holy Spirit (Acts 1:8). So they were there expecting the Spirit to come upon them. They were in one accord. In other words, these were people who were willing to let themselves be used by God.
It has been said that the Holy Spirit is a gentleman: He does not push His way around. That is generally true. The more expectant, and desiring, the assembly of Christians of the presence of God, the easier the way He moves in our midst. Those people gathered in the upper room were expecting and believing something was going to happen.
