Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind fills the house, tongues as of fire rest on each of them, and a hundred twenty Spirit-filled believers spill into the street speaking the wonders of God in every pilgrim's language.
Peter stands up, the coward of the courtyard now the preacher of Pentecost, and three thousand are added in a day. What the Spirit did then, He has not stopped doing. Expect Him today.
David sang that God drew him out of deep waters because He delighted in him; at Pentecost that delight went public and universal, poured out on all people, sons and daughters, young and old, three thousand strangers at once. The Spirit is not a reward for the elite; He is the promise for everyone the Lord our God will call.
Notice what the newborn church did with the fire: nothing exotic, teaching, fellowship, meals, prayer, repeated daily until the city noticed. Revival has ordinary furniture. Devote yourself to those four things this week, and ask boldly for the wind. The gift, Peter said, is for you and your children.
