In what city did the Holy Spirit first fill followers of Jesus?
“Behold, I send the Promise of My Father upon you; but tarry in the city of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high.” [1]
The answer is Jerusalem. This miracle happened on the Day of Pentecost. [2]
The Holy Spirit also filled followers of Jesus at Samaria. [3]
The Holy Spirit filled Saul of Tarsus on the road to Damascus. [4]
The Holy Spirit filled Gentile believers in Caesarea. [5]
The Holy Spirit filled twelve men who believed in Jesus in Ephesus. [6]
I praise God that the Holy Spirit is still at work all over this earth filling followers of Jesus today.
The miracle I enjoy every Sunday is the miracle of fellowship with other followers of Jesus who are filled with His Spirit.
“Thank You Heavenly Father, Risen Son of God and Comforting Holy Spirit for Your presence in our lives.”
