Acts 10:38 “How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him.”

Here apostle Peter talks about Lord Jesus in the house of Cornelius. As the Spirit of God was with Lord Jesus, he did good and delivered many from diseases. We believe trinity and all have equality of power and authority, God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Spirit.  John 1:1,3 “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. … All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. Colossians 1:16 “For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him.”

These are the clear proof of the divinity of our Lord Jesus. So now we have a question why this all-powerful Lord Jesus needs anointing though HE is the son of God and HE can do everything. Even when HE was on earth, HE was as 100% man and 100% God. Just everything will obey and happen by HIS one word. Still did Jesus require this Holy Spirit to be as a son of man and be enabled to do God’s will?

Many times, we see Jesus was anointed, when Jesus stepped out after HIS baptism, HE received The Holy Spirit and even led to the wilderness by HIM. HE did all ministry through the strength of the Holy Spirit.  Isaiah 61:1 Here we see the Holy Spirit is upon HIM to proclaim Gospel (Luke 4:18). John 5:19- He does only what the father does.

That means in order to discard all his own desires and do only God the father’s will, Jesus required the anointing of the Holy Spirit. John 20:21-22 “So Jesus said to them again, ‘Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you.’ And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, ‘Receive the Holy Spirit’.”

Here Lord Jesus sends His disciples into this world to do God’s will. John 20:21;22 Jesus said like father sent me, I too send you into the world. To do God’s will is like food to Jesus. So, likewise we all have been sent into this world to do God’s will and in order to do God’s will Jesus emptied himself likewise we need to empty our self. Phil 2:6;7 Though He was equal to God. Took the form of servant and became like man. So, we need the Holy Spirit in order to empty ourselves and do the will of God.

In this world Jesus was as a role model and lived to do God’s will and showed as that we need to receive this Holy Spirit and go into this world. If we can’t live like Jesus our forerunner, we can’t go to be with Him eternally.  Romans 8:9 “But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His.”

How serious! Those who don’t have HOLY SPIRIT don’t belong to Christ.  “Christ ” means anointed one. 2 Corinthians 1:22 “who also has sealed us and given us the Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee. Because God has bought us as His own by the blood of Christ Jesus and sealed us with Holy Spirit. Now just like the seal is outside and all can see it, anointing of Holy Spirit can be witnessed by all.

Eph 2:8,10 says to do good deeds you have been created in Christ Jesus. Also, we have been changed as God’s deeds. But do we do good deeds? Instead we think we can’t do anything for the kingdom of God. To give Jesus to a person is the greatest good deed a person can do in this world.

Now I ask you, how many souls have you been able to bring to Christ?

If not even one soul, then be aware there is no one as irresponsible as you.

Mathew 7:21– This verse tells us that those who haven’t done God’s will can’t enter the kingdom. According to HIS word only, God will judge. Another question is if I don’t ask God what should I do, how can HE teach me? Jesus every night sat in God’s presence and prayed and took decision, even to choose HIS disciples.  So, if we must do God’s will, we need to sit at the Lord’s feet. and ask HIM what the purpose God is has sent us in this world and to do that purpose, we also need to receive Holy Spirit and moreover there will be God’s will already under action in those who have received the Holy Spirit.

Phil 2:4—each one has to look into other requirements, not only self-seeking. Titus 2:14–Jesus Christ was sacrificed to do good deeds. To do these good deeds and fulfil all HIS ministry, Jesus required HOLY SPIRIT.

Likewise, we each one should be anointed by the power of the Holy Spirit to fulfil God’s purpose. To send this great gift of Holy Spirit Lord Jesus said it will be better for HIM to go (John 16:7)

Now Jesus seated at the right hand of God the Father can send Holy Spirit.  That’s why John the Baptist said Lord Jesus will baptise us with the Holy Spirit and fire. HE is our comforter and advocate and helper. John 3:34–God pours HIS spirit immeasurably.  Lamb of God had these characters of humble, purity, sensitive and gentle. Holy Spirit dwells in a person like this who humbles by denying self.

Why many don’t have HOLY SPIRIT in their life?

Mathew 16:24 If a person must do God’s will, should deny self-desires and change his track towards doing God’s will. Only then he or she can do God’s purpose and will. Only upon him The Holy Spirit will reside. But in the life of a person who doesn’t deny self-will, Holy Spirit cannot reside.

Luke 4:1 Jesus was led to the wilderness by the HOLY SPIRIT and then led by the Holy Spirit to Galilee to do wonderful miracles, Luke 5:17 healed diseases, Luke 10:21Joyful in Holy Spirit

Luke 11:20 by the finger of God drive away evil. Mathew 12:28 by the Holy Spirit drive away evil. Also, Jesus could surrender to cross due to Holy Spirit.  Heb 9:14

Rom 1:5 due to the power of the Holy Spirit which was in Lord Jesus he was resurrected from death. Rom 8:11 But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.

Bible says Jesus Was filled with Holy Spirit and power. That’s why God wants us to wait in Jerusalem until we receive Holy Spirit.

Halleluiah.
