"If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!"
(Luke 11:13)
Zacchaeus came running to see Jesus. His mind was preoccupied with just one thought, “How would this Jesus be?’ Since he was of a short stature, the people who surrounded him prevented him from having a glimpse of Jesus Christ who was entering that city. Yet, he had such a longing to see Jesus Christ. However, Jesus never neglected him.
Our loving Lord Jesus Christ says that He would not cast away anyone who comes to Him (John 6:37). You who are reading this message indeed is a blessed person. Be of good cheer for the Holy Spirit will descend upon you this day. When the Spirit of perfection falls upon you, all the imperfections in you will flee. According to the longing in your heart to receive the anointing of the Holy Spirit, you will receive on this day. Today, you ought to open your mouth and ask for the greatest treasure in all the earth – the Holy Spirit.
In this world if you possess everything but do not have the anointing of the Holy Spirit then you will lack in everything. Without Jesus Christ, we can do nothing (John 15:5). The worldly blessings which you think you possess now might grow wings and leave you at any point of time. However, when the Holy Spirit comes to you, He will never leave you nor forsake you (Hebrews 13:5). Dear Friend! Cling on to this promise of our Lord Jesus Christ. He promises to abide with us even until the end of ages. Therefore, accept this loving Lord Jesus Christ. He is eagerly waiting to make you a very successful person in this world.
Dear Friend! Even before my marriage, I used to read the Bible and pray daily. However, there was no joy in my life. I read the Bible just to please my mother who often kept saying, “Read the Bible”. However, after I got married, I closely watched my husband and his family gather together for offering prayers. Whenever they met for offering prayers as a family, the Holy Spirit descended. They would jump with joy saying, “Lord Jesus! We love You”. I did not know anything of this because I was not anointed with the Holy Spirit then.
It was a time when I had lost my dear ones. I sat in one corner crying profusely saying, “There is no one to love me. I am left all lone. I am a lonely person.” This was my cry filled with tears. However, after watching my husband and his life of prayer, I made it a point to receive the anointing of the Holy Spirit. I told, “Lord! If You come into my life, I will not lack in anything. I will get back everything that I lost.” My second daughter Sharon was in my womb at that time and I prayed with fasting eager to receive the anointing of the Holy Spirit. The day before I received the anointing of the Holy Spirit I cried throughout that night. I kept calling on the mighty name of our Lord Jesus Christ pleading with Him to fill me. I told, “There would be no meaning in my life if You do not fill me with the anointing of the Holy Spirit. Lord! I need You alone in my life. Compensate every loss that I have faced.” The following day, in one of the meetings that were held, I received the anointing of the Holy Spirit. The joy that swept over me is indescribable and inexpressible (1 Peter 1:8). Where the presence of the Lord is experienced, there will be inexpressible joy. The Lord desires to anoint us without measure. In the presence of the Lord there is fullness of joy. Psalm 16:11
Dear Friend! Have you lost your joy, your dear one or child, job or the love of your dear ones? On this day, come back to Jesus Christ and you will definitely get back everything that you have lost in double measure. He did this exactly in my life. I got back everything that I lost in double measure.
Prayer:
Loving Lord!
Now I know how happy and blessed it is to abide in You, to pour out my heart to You and then to receive Your divine blessings. From today onwards, give me the grace to seek You like David and Hannah. Hold my hand and lead me in Your holy ways.
Amen.

Dear Sister, Praise the Lord.
As I reading your msg, i just thought How blessed you are! I too got anoited by Holy Spirit before Baptism at the age of 16yrs. But, I am filled till now but at the same i am immerse with worldly things also. I didnt feel the presence at home because my children and my Husband are not in the same spirit. So, please pray for my Husband and my two children to get the same spirit and I am calling for Family prayers but they are not cooperating with me and not willing to gather with me. So, please pray for me and my family and I also must tell inexpressible indescribable testimony to you. Thank you sister in Christ.
