Then He Gave

By | Eyesalve

And I, behold, I have given with him Aholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan: and in the hearts of all that are wise hearted I have put wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded thee; Exodus 31:6

 

The instructions were already given by God on how to make the ark, the tabernacle, the priestly garments and the artifacts for worship. Then God gave the ability to man to carry out the work to the finest detail. So too with the New Testament church, God spoke His will, go and make disciples, and then He gave the baptism of His Spirit to carry out His work.

Eyesalve: Are You Able?

By | Eyesalve

But Jesus answered and said, Ye know not what ye ask. Are ye able to drink of the cup that I shall drink of, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with? They say unto him, We are able. 23And he saith unto them, Ye shall drink indeed of my cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with: but to sit on my right hand, and on my left, is not mine to give, but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared of my Father.” Matthew 20:22-23

 

Did you notice Jesus did not rebuke the two disciples when they said they were able to drink from His cup and be baptized with His baptism. Jesus did not consider them to be proud. He won’t rebuke you either or consider you proud if you believe you are able to drink of Jesus cup and be baptized with His baptism.

Eyesalve: Baptism of Fire

By | Eyesalve

“Then Joab arose, and came to Absalom unto his house, and said unto him, Wherefore have thy servants set my field on fire?” II Sam. 14:31

Absalom used fire to get Joab’s attention, this is why God wants us to be baptized in the Holy Ghost and FIRE. Fire gets people’s attention

Eyesalve: I Can’t Get Enough

By | Eyesalve

“The horseleach hath two daughters, crying, Give, give. There are three things that are never satisfied, yea, four things say not, It is enough: 16The grave; and the barren womb; the earth that is not filled with water; and the fire that saith not, It is enough.” Pro. 30:15-16

John the Baptist said there is one coming after him that will baptize us in the Holy Ghost and fire. This baptism of fire means a couple things; a fire that refines us, and a fire that makes us zealous for God. So with that said, I pray that we all have that fire that says I can’t get enough, I want more of God.
