“In the last days I will pour out My Spirit upon all flesh.” Act 2:17-18

                Peters simple explanation to a complicated event on the day of Pentecost was; “this is that.” Speaking in tongues is an evidence of the Holy Spirit being poured out. This was a fulfillment of what God said would happen. The original hearers were convinced and converted.

                 If they were in the last days then, how much more are we today? Some look for signs of the antichrist or what is happening with Israel then they act knowledgeable and make charts saying; “we are living in the last days.” This is silly to me. Of course we are in the end times. We have been since Pentecost. Paul was so insistent that he said; “if a man is married, stay married, the Lord is at hand. If a man is single let him stay single, for the Lord is at hand.” That is how close he thought they were.

                Note that the Spirit of God is poured out on everyone, even unbelievers. In these last days, God is convicting the world. The Spirit of God is the most active force in all the world. As much as you want others to come to God, you are limited; you don’t know their mind or heart. The Holy Spirit does.

                The good news is that if you are flesh (which you are) and you are living in the last days (which you are) that the Holy Spirit is being poured out on you. I cannot fill my children’s cup for them to drink as long as the lid is on it. My prayer is that you would simply open your heart to the Spirit of God believing He will be poured out on you too.
