THE HOLY SPIRIT CAME ON THEM

June 1 - Start Your Day Right Devotion 

Acts 19:6 When Paul placed his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they spoke in tongues and prophesied.

THE HOLEY SPIRIT CAME ON THEM

​This event occurs about 25 years after the first outpouring of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost (when God generously sent His Spirit to fill and empower His followers, Acts 2:4). Yet, the pattern of these twelve people receiving the fullness of the Holy Spirit is consistent with the pattern seen throughout the book of Acts (Acts 8:5-24).

1. They had believed in Jesus and were born again by the Spirit (they had been spiritually renewed or “saved” and entered a personal relationship with Jesus).
2. After they were baptized in water (Acts 19:5), Paul laid his hands on them, and they were baptized in the Holy Spirit.
3. As the Holy Spirit came on them, they began speaking in tongues and prophesying (using their voice to honor God by inspiration of the Holy Spirit). The book of Acts never presents the outpouring of the Spirit without any outward evidence. Rather, it shows it to be an obvious and identifiable experience that could be verified by the initial physical evidence of speaking in tongues. This practice is a Holy Spirit-inspired way of speaking, praying, or praising God by which a Christian speaks in a language (Greek glossa) they have never learned (Acts 2:4; 1 Corinthians 14:14-15).
