Be endued with power 2

“And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.” 
Luke 24:49(KJV)

Today from our opening scripture,  I will like to emphasize to you what it means to be endued with power from on high. The word 'endue' means 'to cloth', 'to wrap around with',  'to sink into like been submerged into a sack'.

With this understanding you can now understand what Jesus meant when He said, “… tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.” It meant He was telling them to wait in Jerusalem until they sink into power. This means that when you say that you have been baptized with the Holy Spirit, you are saying that you have sunk into power. This is because when you baptize something, you bury it in the water. So when you are baptized with the Holy Spirit, you are completely submerged in the Holy Spirit such that you become clothed with the Holy Spirit. See 1 Corinthians 6:17.  

Therefore, if you have been baptized with the Holy Spirit it means that you have been clothed and wrapped with the Holy Spirit, in other words you  are clothed and wrapped with God's power twenty four hours a day everyday of your life.

So what are you going to do with this enormous power that has been made available to you in the Holy Ghost?  I encourage you to stir up that power in you so you can walk consistently in the supernatural.  

INSTRUCTION
If you are born again and if you are not filled with the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in other tongues, I will encourage you to ask the Father to fill you with the Spirit even as you receive utterance to pray in tongues. Please read Luke 11:13, Acts 2:38-39.

For further study read:
Acts 1:5, Acts 2:1-4, Mark 16:17, 1 Corinthians 14:2, Jude 1:20

DOING THE WORD
Please spend some time to stir up the power of God in you by praying in the Spirit.
