Acknowledgements
I am indebted to the Ministry leaders of the Body of Christ who have impacted me and spoken into my life and ministry through the years by precept and example.
Dr. Leo & Rev. Edith Fram – my Parents and two of the best mentors any son could ever ask for, because they live what they preach, make opportunities for those upcoming, and give correcting council along the way.
Rev. Kenneth E. (Dad) Hagin – impacted my life through sitting at his feet during my two years at Rhema Bible Training Center as well as through his books and tapes.
Rev. Billy Joe Daugherty – most likely the greatest example I have ever witnessed on this earth of a true Pastor with a real genuine Shepard’s heart. One of the most humble men I have ever met.
Preface
I have been a student of the Holy Spirit for many years. In fact there was a ten year period in my life that the Holy Spirit was all I studied. Every book I bought and read dealt with the subject matter of the Holy Spirit. Most of my times of mediation were spent pondering the ministry of the Holy Spirit.
I came to the place that I realized that everything Jesus did in His earthly ministry was because He was anointed by the Holy Spirit. Conversely everything that we will do will be the same way. If Jesus needed to be anointed by the Holy Spirit, how much more do we?
This book originally started as a sermon that I have been preaching for about 20 years. Over the years as my revelation grew into the truth of the word of God, the message grew in revelation as well.
Through the years the response to this message has always been extremely positive. In fact many times people have told me that I should turn it into a book. Over the last few years I have received many prophetic words about writing. One in particular said: “Write Michael, write.”
When God speaks the same thing to you over and over again it is wise to obey His instruction. A couple of years ago after preaching this message to a group of folks who never heard it before, my Mom came to me and said that should be your first book.
So I began to work on this book little by little. What you hold in your hands is the result of over twenty years of study and revelation. I pray these truths will change you as they have changed me.
Come with me on a journey to discover: “What The Devil Saw On The Day Of Pentecost.”
Introduction
Pentecost is an important part of both the New Testament Church as well as the Old Testament history of the church’s Jewish roots. Pentecost is one of three major feasts in the Jewish calendar, the other two being Passover and The Feast of Tabernacles. These three feasts and other festivals make up what is described in Leviticus 23 as appointed times.
“Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, 'The LORD'S appointed times which you shall proclaim as holy convocations--My appointed times are these…” Leviticus 23:2 NASB
Pentecost is one of the appointed times listed. The Hebrew word for appointed time is transliterated, Moadim or Mow’ed, which means appointed place, appointed time, appointed meeting, sacred season, set feast, appointed season. God has set Pentecost as one of His appointed times to the children of Israel, and so it should come as no surprise to us that He would do something major on one of His own appointed times.
God did major things for the birth of the New Testament Church at Jewish appointed times. The crucifixion came at Passover time, which signified the end of the Old Covenant need for animal sacrifices, since the spotless Lamb of God had laid down His life. On Pentecost came the mighty outpouring of the Holy Spirit fulfilling Joel’s prophecy and what Jesus had declared just before His ascension in Acts 1:8.
Pentecost simply means fifty. Pentecost came fifty days after Passover. We in the church look back at Acts chapter two to The Day of Pentecost as one of the pivotal events of church history. In this book we’ll explore The Day of Pentecost from a different viewpoint.
Let’s look at Pentecost from Satan’s perspective. Suppose you or I were the devil (thank God we’re not, but suppose we were) what does Pentecost look like? What do we see? How does it look to us?
I think if the church could get a glimpse of Pentecost from the devil’s point of view we would realize what we have in a whole new light. We would have a greater appreciation for what God has provided for us in the Pentecostal experience.
Take a journey with me into a viewpoint you may have never considered before and see if God does not give you some great revelation that absolutely blesses you beyond words.
