I am typing this word of the Lord as fast as it is flowing out of my spirit. Only moments after a time of prayer and intercession, I ask God what was specifically on His heart for this moment. As my spirit began to weep on the inside, I heard these words; “Tell My people that there is NO monopoly on My Holy Spirit.” As I continued to press in I heard again, “You, Tell My people that there is No monopoly on My Holy Spirit.”
People of God, as many of you already know from the word of God as written in the book of Acts, that the Holy Spirit did not pick and choose who it fell on that day but touched all who were assembled. The scripture in Acts 2:1-4 reads, “When the Day of Pentecost had 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 the whole house where they were sitting. Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.”
How many times have you in sat church and thought to yourself, I have the true power of God on inside of me and this person, or that person has nothing. See look, they can’t even sing, dance or even pray like me or those in my circle because we got it going on. Or maybe you said something like this even while a person was praying and pouring out their heart to God, I don’t feel the anointing or the power of God on them like I do when sister or brother so and so prays. How can we and I include myself in this equation, sit up in the midst of God’s presence and lift ourselves up in pride to say, who does and who does not have the Spirit of God dwelling on the inside of them? Why are we even judging our brothers and sisters and treating them as inferior or less than us because we think we have a monopoly on the Holy Spirit because we went to this or that school to get training or we sat at the feet of a master mentor? People of God, seriously before we can go any further or deeper into the things of God; we have some spiritual spring cleaning to do.
Today, Father is making this issue known and exposing it so we who are spiritual can truly stand in unity as they did on the day of Pentecost. The word states that they were all on one accord, standing as one. This means that they were undivided and not separated into clicks, levels or groups; but truly united in heart and spirit so the presence of God; the true Spirit of God was able to come in with might and power.
People of God, this is on the heart of the Father today and we need to search our hearts individually and collectively to see ourselves and what we have contributed to this issue and then we are admonished to repent for thinking that we alone have a monopoly on the Holy Spirit of God.
I have repented for taking part in this prideful act; will you?
