HEAVENLY WINE


READ: ACTS 2:5-13
When the Holy Ghost descended on the day of Pentecost, the 120 disciples were filled and began to speak in other tongues. Those listeners who came from foreign countries, hearing their native tongues being spoken by the disciples, could have no explanation other than that they were drunk. In a sense they were right. You can be drunk with the wine of the Holy Ghost, and it will become a well inside you. As you continue to drink, it becomes a river flowing out of you. You can be so full of the Holy Ghost that those around you will know something special is happening.
“And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit.” (Ephesians 5:18). This heavenly wine does not make you drunk. It empowers you. It enables you to praise God, to pray without ceasing; to heal the sick, to move mountains and to rejoice. It also reminds you that you are a stranger in this world, thereby preparing you for heaven.
“Ho! Everyone who thirsts, come to the waters; and you who have no money, come buy and eat. Yes, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.” (Isaiah 55:1). Before you can be filled with the heavenly wine, you have to thirst for it. The deeper the thirst, the greater the quantity you will be given. The quantity you receive will determine the level of power you will be able to manifest. You can drink of this wine and not be drunk. You can drink of it and not be full. It is what distinguishes the performers from the spectators.
You can desire this Wine today. Do not just sip a little. Drink until you are filled with the Holy Ghost. Drink until you are drunk in the Holy Ghost. At that level, he will begin to move you and anywhere you go, the miraculous and the supernatural will flow. You will become very special and to men, you will be truly outstanding. Your desires should be right. Your life should be free from sin. Begin to hunger and thirst unceasingly for more of the Holy Ghost. Never stop until he so fills you that he becomes the centre of your life.
MEMORIZE; ISAIAH 55:1 –Ho! Everyone who thirsts, come to the waters; and you who have no money, come buy and eat. Yes, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.
