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).

Jesus is God, yet He did not begin His ministry or perform any miracle until He had an experience with the Holy Spirit. When Jesus was twelve, He could discuss the Bible in the Temple, but Jesus did not fully exercise His ministry in the maturity of Kingdom power and authority until He was baptized in the Spirit.

The disciples were believers and witnesses to the resurrection of Jesus. They had performed miracles, preached the gospel and cast out demons, yet they were instructed by Jesus to wait for an experience with the Holy Spirit before they entered into the next phase of their ministry. If Jesus and the disciples needed an additional experience with the Spirit for the purpose of doing the will of the Father, then we also need this experience.

Jesus said, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father” (John 14:12). When Jesus ascended to the Father, he sent the Holy Spirit to the disciples who were expectantly waiting in Jerusalem. The purpose of the Spirit in them and in us is to do the work of the Kingdom of God on the earth. We do not need another message, another gospel or another church to reach this generation for Jesus. We need the power of the Spirit.

What are you waiting for? Are you watching the clouds for the Lord to return? Reading the newspapers for the latest prophetic element to be fulfilled? That is good, but we need to be about the business of the Kingdom first. Where is the anointing in your life?
