| The promise
Remember the song, “Pass me Not.” |
Acts 1:1-8
1st Corinth. 12:1-15 |
The Holy Ghost was promised. Jesus said, “But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you.”
Every true believer yawns for this promise to be fulfilled in their lives. You have to believe it, ask for it by faith and receive it with thanksgiving and worship. |
Acts 2: 21-39
Rom. 8:22-25 1st Corinth. 12:16-31 |
God made promises to whosoever will believe. But the promise of the Holy Ghost was one that every true believer looks forward to receiving if they ask for it. (Study Luke 11:13). Have you received this promise and what is it doing in your life? | Ephesians 4:30, “And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.”
Acts 13:52, “And the disciples were filled with joy, and with the Holy Ghost.” |
Day 2
Acts 19:2, “He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, we have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost.”

| The Promise spoken
Remember the song, “Onward Christian Soldier.” |
Luke 24:44-53
Acts 2:29-39 |
The promise came by the word spoken in prophecy. Peter on the Day of Pentecost, when the promise of the Holy Ghost for power came on them in the upper room in Jerusalem including Mary the mother of Jesus: Peter under the anointing of the Holy Ghost started bringing the spoken words of prophecy. He said, “For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call. Has the Lord our God called you yet? This is serious, and you need to be definite or else ask for help. | Acts 10:34-48 | Peter in the house of Cornelius the centurion, was speaking to the people gathered in the house; And while he spoke the scriptures to them, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word. Remember Rom. 10:17, So then faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God. | Luke 24:46, “Thus it is written, and thus it behooved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day.” |
Day 3
John 3:3,5 “Verily, verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.—–, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.”

| The promise was taught
Remember the song, “It is no Secret.” |
John 14:25-26;
John 15:26-27 John 16:7-16 John 1:19-34 |
Jesus preached of the kingdom and it was already in you the believer. The promise seals the believer untill the day of redemption; which is the moment of the translation.
John the Baptist taught about the promise when he said, in John 1:33-34, “And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said to me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost. I saw and bare record that this is the Son of God; (Jesus Christ). |
Luke 17:20-22
Acts 1:4-8 Luke 3:15-18 |
Without the promise and work of the Holy Spirit, no believer can work as a faithful servant or son of God with power and authority of his name, Jesus Christ. In Acts 19: 1-6 Paul met believers of the message of repentance by John the Baptist: But never knew or heard whether there be any Holy Spirit. Some today claim to be believers but never known nor heard or deny the Holy Ghost. But these men only knew of repentance as preached by John; so Paul told them about Jesus and what John the Baptist preached saying to his followers, that they should believe in him which should come after him, that is, on Jesus Christ. | John 16:13, “Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will show you things to come.” |
Day 4
Luke 10:20, “Notwithstanding, in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.”

| Some partook of the promise to come
Remember the song, “Shut in with God.” |
Matt.10:1-16
Luke 9:1-6 |
He gave his twelve disciples power to go preach the gospel of the kingdom, heal, cast out devils, and much more. Jesus gave them authority by his spoken word, when he sent them out to preach, heal and deliver the people. That was the power to come through the baptism of the Holy Spirit. Jesus is the Word and he is the Holy Spirit, and he is God. His instruction to the twelve disciples was the authority, and done in his name, “Jesus Christ.”
They went through the towns, preaching the gospel, and healing everywhere They used the power of the promise to come. On the day of Pentecost the promise and power came. |
Luke 10:1-22
Mark 6:7-13 |
Jesus again sent out seventy of another group of disciples in two and two. He gave them the same instructions in his name and the came back with similar results as the twelve disciples. In Luke 10:17, “And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name,” (Jesus Christ). They partook of the power of the promise to come. Not only that but at their testimony Jesus said, Luke 10:20, (STUDY it). | Luke 10:22, “All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is but the Son, and he to whom the Son will reveal him.”
Luke 1019, “ Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy; and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” |
Day 5
John 20:9, “For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead.”

| Jesus confirmed the promise
Remember the song, “Sweet Hour of Prayer.” |
John 2:1-25
John 20:1-10 |
He rose from the dead and came to them to show himself.
At the beginning of his earthly ministry the Jews just after his first recorded miracle of turning water to wine; he went to the temple and found that they had turned it to a house of merchandise. He drove them out, overturning their tables. The Jews demanded a sign from him, and he said destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. He answered them with a prophetic statement. Sealed in the statement in John 11:25-26. |
John 20: 11-31 | When Jesus Christ said, destroy this temple and in three days I will raise it up; He was not talking about the Jewish temple but his own body, ( remember your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, 1st Corinth. 6:19-20).
He rose the third day, after the temple of his body was tortued and killed, which is as destroying. But He rose from the dead, fulfilling his prophecy. Confirming also that he actually is the Resurrection and the Life. He promised eternal life though you were dead yet shall he live. That is a sure confirmation that the resurrection and translation must come to pass for the true believers.. |
John 2:19, “Destroy this temple and in three days I will raise it up.” |
Day 6
2nd Kings 2:11, “And it came to pass, as they still went on, and talked, that, behold, there appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind to heaven.”

| He displayed the promise
Remember the song, “ When the Redeemed Gather.” |
Acts 1:7-11
Job. 19:22-27 |
As he ascended up to heaven, he left them with witnesses, that he had the power to ascend up to heaven and would see his promise come through.
Many believers have that hope of seeing the Lord in a changed dimension, Paradise and/ or Translation, in their glorified bodies. It is all fitted into “I am the resurrection and the life.” Jesus Christ is eternal life. The power to resurrect from the dead and to change those who are alive, both groups that make up the resurrection and the life are all in Christ. The Holy Ghost will make it all possible. Jesus Christ, is both the Father and the Son. He is God Almighty. With God nothing shall be impossible. |
Psalm 17:1-15
2nd Kings 2:1-14 |
Jesus Christ ascending up into heaven was no joke. He just floated upwards, no law of gravity against the glorified body, so shall it be at the translation but faster that no human eye can catch or take a picture of it. I will be as the twinkling of an eye.
Elijah experienced something similar that God put him through. How do you prepare yourself to be carried to heaven like Elijah, with no fears, faith in the promise of God made it easy for him. He had total confidence in the promise of God: that he told Elisha to ask what he would do before he was taken. Suddenly after Elisha made his request, a sudden chariot of fire whisked Elijah up to heaven at an unknown speed. It was not visible before, until after the sudden parting without saying farewell. |
Psalm 17:15, “As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.” |
Day 7
John 17:17, “They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth. – – And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.” Mark 16:15-18 summarizes the promise at work in the life of a true believer.

| His promise to each believer
Remember the song, “Only believe.” |
John 15:26-27
John 16:7 John 14:1-3 2nd Corinth. 6:17-18. |
Jesus said, heaven and earth will pass away but not his Word. He promised salvation and healing, the Holy Ghost and power. He promised to take all true believers to heaven with him. He changeth not and faileth not. He only demands of us not to conform to the world. His promises are true and real.
If he can change a vile sinner and make him righteous by faith; then imagine what will happen to you when as you trust and hold to his promises by faith, He changes you at rapture time. |
2nd Corinth. 7:1
John 17:1-26 |
It is the promise every true believer is looking forward to. The redemption of the purchased possession. The redemption of our bodies to the glorified state.
But you must witness all his promises if you stay true to his word. You will be saved and made a new creation as you repent of your sins and are converted. Baptized and as you seek and ask him He gives you the Holy Ghost, by which you are sealed till the translation moment when you are changed and you put on immortality. |
John 17:20, “Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word.”
John 17:26, “And I have declared unto them thy name and will declare it: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.” |
