And when the day
of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in
one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a
rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were
sitting. And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of
fire, and it sat upon each of them. And they were all filled
with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as
the Spirit gave them utterance. Acts 2:1-4

As Christian adults we should truly
believe that adversity is GOD's opportunity, and that the HOLY
SPIRIT will visit and remain with us and continue to bless us
according to the riches of GOD in glory. This kind of
Christian maturity tightens the bonds of love between the Word
and the believers.
Those whose lives are guided by the power of the HOLY SPIRIT
will show compassion, understanding, and love for others when
they are faced with situations, sorrow, or what may appear as
insurmountable problems. As adult Christians we must
maintain our faith as we realize and believe that GOD loves us
all, and that whatever circumstances we face they can be
resolved by placing complete confidence and trust in Him.
There is power in the HOLY SPIRIT that can turn a life around
and fill it with joy and peace.
Why should we worry about church growth (and the LORD added to
the church daily those that were being saved.
Acts 2:47) if we are faithful, fellowship,
pray, preach, and teach in sincerity and under the guidance of
the HOLY SPIRIT all things will be added to us. Our
congregation will increase and we will experience growth and
expansion without fail.
