Bible Reading: Acts 2:1-12
“And when the day of
Pentecost was 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 all the house where they were sitting. And there appeared unto them
cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. And they were all
filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the
Spirit gave them utterance. And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout
men, out of every nation under heaven. Now when this was noised abroad, the
multitudes came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard
them speak in his own language. And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying
one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans? And how hear
we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born? Parthians, and Medes, and
Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in
Pontus, and Asia, Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya
about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes, Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in
our tongues the wonderful works of God. And they were all amazed, and were in
doubt, saying one to another, what meaneth this?”
We need extraordinary power
to be put forth in our hearts, a special work of God the Spirit upon the
conscience, in order to spiritually fulfill in the slightest degree the least
of God's precepts. Power is one of the pillars for great enlargement.
Without divine power there is divine enlargement. On the day of Pentecost, the
Spirit of God came upon them and they were enlarged and spread around the world
by then.
The power for
enlargement is the Holy Spirit. Jesus said, “But you shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon
you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea,
and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.” Acts 1:8
Without divine
power there is no divine enlargement. Let us examine some Biblical people that
were enlarging as a result of divine empowerment:
Joseph – Genesis 41:38
Joseph became
enlarge in the strange land of Egypt after he has divinely empowered. No forces
or enemies can stop him to become the first Prime Minister in the land of Egypt
without election campaign, or election officers.
King Saul – 1Samuel 10:1-12
The spirit of
God came upon him and he was enlarged beyond his territory.
“Then Samuel took a vial of oil, and poured it upon
his head, and kissed him, and said, Is it not because the LORD hath anointed
thee to be captain over his inheritance?...And it was so, that when he had
turned his back to go from Samuel, God gave him another heart: and all those
signs came to pass that day. And when they came thither to the hill, behold, a
company of prophets met him; and the Spirit of God came upon him, and he
prophesied among them…And when he had made an end of prophesying, he came to
the high place.”
Othniel – Judges 3:10
He was enlarged
upon his enemies, fought them and defeats them.
Gideon – Judges 6:34-39
As a result of
divine enablement, Gideon remains one of the successful judges in the Israel.
He was spiritually enlarged, economically enlarged and ministerial
enlarged.
