HOLY SPIRIT BAPTISM
  is the initial Prerequisite/Prequalification/Empowerment
/Commissioning
for fruitful ministry
EACH of us has been created with a DESTINY!

Matthew 10:1,5,8    He (while Jesus was still alive) called His 12 disciples to Him and gave them authority to drive out evil spirits and to heal every  disease and sickness...These 12, Jesus sent out with the following instructions, "...Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons."

However, God's Holy Spirit baptism gives resilience and boldness.  Jesus' disciples did healing ministry, but at least on one occasion were intimidated when it came to deliverance.  Jesus had to finish the job
they left undone - apparently NOT due to the disciples' NOT receiving 2 gifts of the Holy Spirit (healing
and evil spirit discernment/exorcism), but perhaps rather due to fear, which for many is a spirit of fear. 
The disciples apparently were water baptized for the remission of their sins after acknowledging Jesus as Messiah.  Subsequently they went in pairs to heal, deliver and do miracles BEFORE Pentecost when the Holy Spirit baptism came.  Judas and Peter both hand picked by Christ were traitors before the Holy Spirit baptism which gives boldness.
Remember Adam and Eve had ALL authority on earth and Satan tricked them out out of that until Jesus came and retrieved the power Adam abdicated.  Genesis 3 + Matthew 4:8-9 +  Matthew 28:18 
Remember, Isaac was deceived by his younger son Jacob who stole his elder brother Esau's birthright?
Genesis 25:29-34
  Our enemy Satan the con artist intends that we remain ignorant and impotent sons
of God.
After the death of Jesus when the Comforter came, there was a turnaround, evidenced especially by Peter (who denied his affiliation with Jesus - 3 times).  The Holy Spirit empowered them with audacity and violence towards the enemy.
Mark 9:17-19,25,28-29 TPNT    17"Teacher, I brought my son to You because he has a mute (dumb) spirit.  18Wherever it would seize him him it throws him down; he foams at the mouth and he gnashes
his teeth and is stiff (pines/wastes away).  I asked Your disciples to cast it out, but they were not able." 
19He said, "O unbelieving generation, until when will I be with you?  How long am I to endure you? 
Bring him to Me
."  25Jesus...rebuked the unclean (foul) spirit by saying to it, "Mute and deaf spirit,
I command you; you must come out from him at once and never again can you enter into him
."  
28His disciples asked Him privately, "Why were we not able to cast it out?"  29He said to them,
"
This kind is in no way able to come out except in prayer (and fasting)."
Each individual in each generation needs to recognize the implication of Jesus' words spoken on the cross, "It is finished!"
[What is finished?  Jesus' regaining/taking back authority and power over everything - over death, over disease, over incurable diseases, over insanity. 
However, we cannot access that spiritual reality until we do 2 things.  Believe and ask.  Believe in Jesus as savior of body, mind, and spirit. Believe in Jesus as baptizer in the Holy Spirit.  Repent of each and every known sin. Ask Jesus to come live in our heart.  Ask Jesus to baptize us in His Holy Spirit.  Thank Him based on His Word in scripture and not based on our 5 senses' perception.  Allow the Holy Spirit time to download spiritual realities into our human spirit - and then our human spirit to download into our mind/intellect and into our body.  Continue to trust His adoption of us even though we may not immediately feel adopted.  Continue to trust the work of His Holy Spirit in our human spirit.  Continue to feed our human spirit with the Word of God daily.  Continue to fellowship with Him daily in prayer and praise.  Continue to fellowship with other Christians.
Post Script.  An "act" may be necessary to SEAL the deal.  That is WATER BAPTISM.  Emerson Ferrell contends (along with many others) that one needs to be immersed 3x in the name of the Trinity. 
If in doubt, do it anyway.  Be safe, not sorry!

                                                                  SCRIPTURE

                                                      Before the birth of Messiah
Isaiah 6l:1-2 Harkavy 1The Spirit of the Lord God is upon Me, because He hath anointed Me to preach good tidings unto the meek; He hath sent Me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captive, and the deliverance to them that are bound; 2to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn.

                                     Before the death and resurrection of Messiah
                                          Before the Messiah sent His Holy Spirit
Matthew 10:1,5,8   
He (while Jesus was still alive) called His 12 disciples to Him and gave them authority to drive out evil spirits and to heal every  disease and sickness...These 12, Jesus sent out with the following instructions, "...Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons."
Matthew 28:18-19 NIV    Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me.  Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son AND of the Holy Spirit."

Mark 16:14-18    Later (after Jesus' resurrection from the dead) Jesus appeared to the 11 as they were eating.  He rebuked them for their lack of faith and their stubborn refusal to believe those who had seen Him after He had risen.  He said to them. "Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation.  Whoever believes AND is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned (by Satan and by their unforgiven sin).  These signs will accompany those who believe: In My name:  They will  drive out demons.  They will speak in new tongues.  They will pick up snakes with their hands.  When they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all.  They will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well."  After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, He was taken up into heaven and He sat at the right hand of God.  Then the disciples went out and preached everywhere, and the Lord worked with them and confirmed His word by the signs that accompanied it.

Luke 4:18-19    The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has anointed Me (me) to preach the gospel to the poor.  He has sent Me (me) to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed; to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.  (Spiritual insight = The Trinity/Jesus/the Holy Spirit in me is God at work in the earth.)
  
John 20:19-23   
On the evening of that first day of the week, when the disciples were together, with the doors locked for fear of the Jews, Jesus came (through the locked door) and stood among them and said, "Peace be with you"  After He said this, He showed them His (crucified) hands and side.  The disciples were overjoyed when they saw the Lord.  Again Jesus said, "Peace be with you.  As the Father has sent Me, I am sending you."  With that He breathed on them and said, "Receive the Holy Spirit.  If you forgive anyone his sins, they are forgiven (released from apologizing and debt owed, but not free to abuse).  If you (retain) do not forgive them, they are (retained) not forgiven."
Now Thomas (called Didymus) 1 of the 12, was not with the disciples when Jesus came.

                                             After the resurrection of Messiah
                                         After the descent of God's Holy Spirit
Acts 2:38 KJV   
Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Acts 6:3-6 TPNT
    3"You  brothers must now provide 7 approved men from yourselves, (already) filled (baptized) with the (Holy) Spirit and wisdom, whom we could appoint for this (specific ministry) need.  4We shall persist in prayer and in the service of the Word."  5The request pleased the whole multitude and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and the Holy Spirit, Philip, Prochoros, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas, a proselyte from Antioch, 6whom they stood before the apostles; when they prayed, they laid hands on them (to commission/empower/appoint them).
Acts 8:14-17    14When the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had accepted the word of God (Jesus as Messiah), they sent Peter and John to them.  15When they arrived, they prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Spirit, 16because the Holy Spirit had not yet come upon any of them; they
had simply been baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus.  17Then Peter and John placed their hands on them and they received the Holy Spirit (baptism).   
Acts 8:13-17 TPNT   
13Even Simon (a powerful practicer of magic arts) himself believed and after he was baptized (with water for the repentance of sins), he was attaching himself to Philip; he was amazed when he saw that there were signs and great miracles.  14When the apostles in Jerusalem hard that the Samaritans welcomed the Word of God, they sent Peter and John to them, 15,who when they went down from Jerusalem, prayed on their behalf to the end that they would take the Holy Spirit: 16for not yet was it fallen upon any of them, but they were only being baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus
17Then Peter and John were laying hands on them and they were taking the Holy Spirit.
(evidenced by speaking in tongues.  The skill of transference was coveted by Simon.  See Acts 8:18-24.)
[TPNT footnote.  "The laying on of hands for the baptism comes from this.  See Acts 19:6. 
Notice that those prayed for (took) the Holy Spirit.  The baptism of the Holy Spirit must be sought."]
(Not bought.  Also consider that the 3 names of the Trinity may need to be invoked, eg. in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost, not just in the Messiah's name.)
Acts 10:44-47 NIV    43Everyone who believes in Him receives forgiveness of sins through His name.  44While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit came on all who heard the message...46For they heard them speaking in in tongues and praising god.  Then Peter said, 47"Can anyone keep these people from being baptized with water"...in the name of Jesus Christ.
Acts 19:2 KJV     "Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed?"
Acts 13:2-4 KJVer    2As they ministered TO the Lord and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, "Separate Me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereto I have called them."  3When they had fasted, prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.  4So they, being sent forth by the Holy Ghost, departed.

Romans 10:17 KJV    Faith cometh by hearing...the Word of God.

James 1:6-7 KJV    Let him ask in faith, nothing wavering.  He that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.  Let not that man think that he shall receive anything of the Lord.  A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.
James 4:17 KJV    To him   that knoweth to do good and doeth it not, to him it is sin.

1st Peter 1:1-2    Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, "To God's elect, strangers in the world, scattered throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia and Bithynia, who have been chosen according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through the sanctifying work of the Spirit, for obedience to Jesus Christ and sprinkling by His blood.

1 Corinthians 12:28 KJV  God hast set some in the church, 1st apostles, 2nd prophets, 3rd, teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.

Ephesians 4:12 KJV  For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ.

The baptism of the Holy Spirit is the 2nd intervention of God into man's spirit, the 1st being the baptism of water for the forgiveness and removal of sin and iniquity.  This qualifies us to receive the fruit and gifts of the Holy Spirit, as we pursue and worship Jesus on a daily basis.  As we daily plug into Him, He releases His power and glory into our lives, but only daily, like the daily manna in the dessert.

Autobiography.  Father insists that as a certified college professor, priest, chaplain, and pastoral counselor, he would be disqualified - without the baptism in the Holy Spirit - and end up with human results rather than God's.  He also notes that the short time after the Holy Spirit baptism is the honeymoon period. He says this baptism is a must for each of us, not only for priests and revered saints.  He was privileged to be prayed over by Kathryn Kuhlman in Jerusalem. He remarks that only one who has a personal relationship with Christ can evangelize and explain to others their need for a personal relationship with Jesus; one cannot share what he does not have. You cannot share a loaf of bread if you have no bread. The spirit of Christ is contagious, like a virus, and not taught.

Chapter 2 God Has Taken the Field  "To claim to possess the Holy Spirit and deny the very work which has always  distinguished Him can only grieve Him...One filling of the Spirit is not lasting or enough, and we need to keep coming for a repeat experience - 'many fillings'...John plainly announced the purpose of Christ - to baptize men and women in the Spirit (Luke 3:16)...Christ is called the Baptizer because that is His constant work, His heavenly office - the baptizer in the Holy Spirit...When someone says he or she has been baptized in the Spirit, how long does it last? a week? an hour? six months?  Does the Holy Spirit leak away like power from a car battery?...At the dawn of the twentieth century it was taught for the first time that the sign of tongues (glossolalia) was the assurance of the baptism in the Spirit...The Holy Spirit was God in earthly activity, just as Jesus had been.  The baptism in the Spirit is not meant to be a single emotional event recorded in believers' diaries...Terms, such as 'coming upon,' 'being filled,' 'drinking' and 'anointing,' describe the same divine gift of the Spirit.  Christ said we should 'ask...seek...knock' (Matt.7:7).  This applies to receiving the baptism of the Spirit also...If we do what the apostles did and we get what the apostles got, its name doesn't matter....When people were baptized they were anointed afterward to receive the Spirit.  It was called 'chrism.'"

Chapter 6 Baptism of the Holy Spirit  "The Holy Spirit goes a step beyond regeneration (salvation/being born-again/receiving forgiveness and eternal life) and that's what the baptism of the Holy Spirit is all about.  Regeneration is NOT the same experience as the baptism of (or with) the Holy Spirit.  Of course, both regeneration and the baptism of the Holy Spirit can happen at the same time.  But in other cases there is an interval of time between the two experiences.
Before Jesus' death His disciples had already received eternal life, for Jesus called them in person and they obeyed Him, believing that He was the son of God...Jesus also testified in John 13:10 that His disciples were all clean except Judas Iscariot...Jesus admitted that the 70 disciples had already received everlasting life (see Luke 10:20)"
Acts 8:14-17 KJV When the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the Word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John, who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost (baptism)[For as yet, He (the Holy Spirit) was fallen upon none of them.  They were only baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.]  Then they laid their hands on them, and they received the Hoy Ghost.
"Christians today are NOT powerless, sick and spiritless
because they are NOT born again, but because they have NOT received the fullness of the Holy Spirit, the tremendous power of God for service."
Luke 3:16 KJV   "
I indeed baptize you with water, but One mightier than I cometh, the latchet of Whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose; He shall  baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire."
Acts 1:4-5 KJV   "
Wait for the promise of the Father, which ye have heard of Me; for John truly baptized with water, but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence."
"The Jewish calendar tells us...Jesus died at the Passover feast.  The Holy Spirit (baptism) came upon the disciples on the day of Pentecost, a feast celebrated 50 days after Passover.  Jesus had shown Himself to His disciples for 40 days between His resurrection and ascension.  So the disciples gathered together in Jerusalem for prayer for about 10 days."
Act 2:1-4 KJV  When the day of Pentecost was full come, they were all with one accord in one place.  Suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.  There appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.  They were all filled with the Holy Ghost and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance."
"Speaking in tongues in itself is not the fullness of the Holy Spirit, but as confirmed in the Scriptures tongues is the common external sign that a person has received the fullness of the Holy Spirit."
Chapter 7 Receiving the Baptism of the Holy Spirit
"Those who want to receive the promised baptism of the Holy Spirit should have a fervent expectation and a desperate desire to receive...If those who want to receive the Holy Spirit are half in doubt...lukewarm...that God will give them the baptism of the Holy Spirit if He want to, they cannot receive no matter how long they pray."
"We must take care of any sin in our lives before we pray for the experience of the baptism of the Spirit...Try to be baptized with water as soon as possible as it is the external sign of salvation; but to conclude that unless you are baptized with water, you receive neither remission of sins nor baptism of the Holy Sprit is against the teachings of the Bible."
Cho cites significant warnings concerning receiving/ministering the baptism of the Holy Spirit.  Go to Deliverance Dangers !

Copeland, Kenneth    Kenneth Copeland Ministries    John G Lake                  www.kcm.org
Lake contends that one must consecrate his spirit, his mind, and his body to God.  Salvation/water baptism of the spirit alone is insufficient for God to do His best work in us.  God wants us to be clones of Jesus, sons with Holy Spirit powers equal to Jesus.  We must not be so heavenly minded that we are no earthly good.  We must daily (until death) hunger after and pursue the mind of God in each situation,
be translated to heaven, and then with Holy Spirit boldness accomplish on earth what He has already been accomplished in heaven.  Most of us do no take what has already been accomplished in heaven. 
That is why many prayers are not answered.  It is not God's fault.  It is not Satan's fault.  It is our neglect.  God is waiting on us to act on our own behalf and on the behalf of others.  This is our mandate as brothers/sisters of Christ and sons/daughters of God.  Wake up.  Do not lose 40 years as Moses did. 
In Chapter 25 Adventures in God Lake testifies that God healed him of a 9 year bout with constipation
upon his 100% consecration of his spirit, mind and body to God.
Chapter 25 also addresses Paul's thorn in the flesh.  Lake contends that on the 3rd plea, Paul was healed.  Lake believes 2nd Corinthians 12:9 should read, "Paul, My grace is sufficient for you (to heal your spirit,
to heal your mind and to heal your body)!
Chapter 43 The Baptism of the Holy Ghost has a plethora of "awe inspiring, unique, and encouraging" sermons. This chapter in itself is a reason to buy this book.  We recommend it as a "must read" book.

Ferrell, L Emerson    The Supernatural Believing the Consciousness of Christ    www.voiceofthelight.com
Chapter 2 Sin Consciousness Versus Christ Consciousness
   Matthew 28:19 KJV  Wherever you go, make disciples of all nations; baptize them in the name of the Father, the Son ant, of Joseph son of Elid the Holy Spirit. "
Immersion into Christ produces a SUBSTANCE, which forms your character...
Baptism into the nature of the Son produces obedience to the Father...
Immersion into the Holy Spirit baptizes us into the manifestation of the Godhead."
Ferrell, L. Emerson    Immersed in Him    www.voiceofthelight.com   also introductory video -http://www.voiceofthelight.com/VOTLM2009/ImmerseInHim/ImmersedInHIMFirstChapter.pdf 
Emerson gives his personal testimony + his understanding that there needs to be 3 water immersions (baptisms), in the name of the Father, the Son, AND the Holy Spirit.  (The 3rd seems to be for the baptism of the Holy Spirit, Who empowers us to be useful to the Trinity and imparts both spiritual gifts and spiritual fruit enabling us to raise the dead, heal, deliver and do miracles.  Emerson suggests that one's operation in these powers is the "sign" marking one's passport into the Kingdom of God, rather than one's "speaking in tongues".  Jesus began His ministry immediately after His baptism by John.  Jesus said per Luke 4:21 and Isaiah 61:1-2, "TODAY this scripture has been fulfilled in your ears.")
The Baptism of Jesus by His cousin John in the Jordan river (Matthew 3:13-17, Mark 1:9-11,Luke 3:21-22)

The Ministry of Jesus Begins (Luke 3:23) Then (after His public river baptism) Jesus was beginning His ministry at about 30 years old, being a Son, as it was thought of Joseph, son of Eli.
Immediate Demonic Temptation of Jesus (Matthew 4:1-11, Mark 1:12-13) Luke 4:1-2 TPNT)
1Now Jesus returned from the Jordan (river) FULL of the Holy Spirit and He was being led in(to) the wilderness by the (Holy) Spirit, 2being tested by the devil for 40 days.
Beginning of Jesus' Ministry in Galilee [after baptism + temptation (of Jesus' human soul/mind)] (Matthew 4:12-17, Mark 6:1-6, Luke 4:14-15)
Jesus' hometown Nazareth rejects Him. (Matthew 13:53-58, Mark 6:1-6, Luke 4:16-30) Luke 4:16 TPNT Then He came into Nazareth, which was where He grew up, and He entered the synagogue according to His custom on the day of Sabbaths (feast days) and He stood up to read.  17A scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to Him and when He opened the scroll He found the place (Isaiah 6l:1-2) where it was written, 18"The (Holy) Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has anointed Me to preach Good News to the repentant; He has sent Me to preach release to (physical & spiritual) captives and recovery of (physical & spiritual) sight to the blind, to send release to the (demonically & physically) oppressed, 19to preach the acceptable year (of deliverance) of the Lord." 20Then rolling up the scroll, after He gave it back to the attendant, He sat down.  The eyes of all in the synagogue were looking attentively at Him.  21He began to say to them, "TODAY this Scripture has been fulfilled in your ears."
[One might be able to conclude that Jesus the man (flesh and soul) was enabled to begin to become the Christ when His human spirit was united to the Holy Spirit.  Probably that would have been true of the 1st Adam - and of each human.  However, as Jesus' Spirit was God from the moment of conception, that is what (in all likelihood) enabled Him to never submit to temptation.  Even though Jesus' disciples did wonders, they did greater works AFTER Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection, when He sent our helper the Holy Spirit at Pentecost. 
There is a deeper understanding.  When one's human spirit is immersed into the Holy Spirit (when the veil to heaven is ripped open) one can (often at will) peer into the mind and heart of God.  One can WATCH what the Father God is doing.  One can reproduce it on earth.  Jesus said that He did ONLY what He SAW His Father in heaven doing!  Remember!  Jesus taught in the Lord's prayer for us to ask, "May it be done on earth as it is now done in heaven."  When we observe it being done in heavenly places, this prayer becomes more of a command, "Be done on earth NOW, as it is now done in heaven, in Jesus' name."
Numbers 12:6 KJVer    He said, "Hear now My words, 'If  there be a prophet among you, I the Lord will make Myself known to him in a vision and will speak to him in a dream.'"
John 16:14-15   He (the Holy Spirit) shall glorify Me (Jesus), for He shall receive of Mine and shall show it to you.  All things that the Father has are mine.  Therefore I said that He (the Holy Spirit) shall take of Mine and shall SHOW it to you.
John 8:38 TNAB I tell what I have seen in the Father's presence.]

Frodsham, Stanley H              With Signs Following                      www.persecution.com
May 2004 magazine The Voice of the Martyrs spells out the trials of those who first printed the Bible in various countries and the trials even now in many countries.  The Word of God is surely written in not only the blood of Christ, but also the blood of many translators, printers, and holy smugglers. Certainly scripture contains the secrets to eternal life, and to the healing of infirmities, broken relationships, broken bodies and broken minds.  It is a treasure the enemy does not want us to share.

Graham, Billy                         The Holy Spirit       
Graham says that it is a waste of our/God's time to pant after power which we do not intend to use, for might in prayer that we do not intend to pray, for strength to testify when we do not intend to witness, for power unto holiness without the aim to pursuing it, for grace to suffer without taking up our cross for Him, and for power in service while we sit idle; God gives dying grace only to the dying!

Hagin, Kenneth E (senior)                        I Believe In Visions        autobiography   https://rhema.org   www.rhema.org
Hagin had 8 visions where Jesus came to him in person.
Chapter 4 How Satan Influences Lives Today         Jesus "went on to say, 'These (evil) spirits will know (recognize the Holy Sprit in) you.  Through the gift of discerning of spirits you will know what kind of (evil) spirit it is (in the other individual)...To cast them out (to dry places per Matthew 12:43) you sometimes have to know not only the kind of spirit they are but also their name or number.'"

Some who cannot speak/pray/sing in tongues or who can only say a few words (after asking for the baptism in the Holy spirit) may be prevented by hindering/interfering evil spirits, perhaps due to past occult involvement, such as dabbling with a Ouija board.  We can  ask the Holy Spirit to reveal any open doors which let the evil spirit enter.  Then we need to shut the door, after evicting the demon.

Branham had a marvelous, magnificent healing ministry.  Per book 4, he contended that each Christian must have the baptism of the Holy Spirit, which he considered to be the seal of the Holy Spirit. 
He did NOT believe that speaking in tongues is evidence of baptism.  He considered the fruit of the Spirit
to be the real test.  However, he did believe in speaking in tongues and the other gifts of the Holy Spirit.

Section New Testament Baptisms delves into the necessity of adult "baptism by immersion in water" for believers, to separate ourselves from the power of Satan.  This issue is also covered in Prince's book They Shall Expel Demons. Regardless of our doctrinal position, if we follow Jesus' example as protocol, then baptism by immersion seems to be the spiritual thing to do.  This can be done in a swimming pool, in a large pot of clay, in a river, or in the ocean, as well as at church.

"My Dad...would tell me about the time the Lord spoke to him while I was in my Mother's womb and said, 'I'm going to give you a son, he's going to be a minister, and he's going to preach My Word.  He's going to reach out to people with a ministry that will bring them into a place where they can be healed soul, mind and body.'"

Winder, Delores with Keith, Bill    Joy Comes in the Morning    http://www.deloreswinder.com/   Fellowship Foundation, Shreveport, Louisiana, USA
Chapter 5 Good Times, Bad Times  A pastor asked Delores , "Do you know some things you think you shouldn't know?"  (This gift of the Holy Spirit is called the "gift of knowledge".)  Delores asked, "Will I always know bad things about people?"  He replied, "No, not unless God is going to use you to set them free or to help them through it."  (However, some teach that the gifts of God are irrevocable, and thus can be misused.) 
The pastor went on to explain to Delores that she was 'baptized in the Holy Spirit" and "received some (ministry) gifts" (tongues, interpretation of tongues, and gift of knowledge) at the same time that she received her healing.  No one had ever explained this to her before. 
Chapter 6 The Surrender  Another aspect of revelation regarding the gift of knowledge - Delores during ministry exclaimed, "I know the heart healing is here tonight," because she recognized that that her own "heart was acting the part of the heart being healed...irregular, stopping, and then starting again."  Her "own heart became normal again."  She asked the patient to claim the healing.
Chapter 7 The Ministry  "When God healed me that night, He also baptized me in the Holy Spirit.  Then He bestowed on me the gift of healing...Until we receive the baptism and are filled, we cannot consistently manifest the fruit of the Spirit...Jesus commanded us to receive the baptism.  That makes us whole.  Without it we cannot be whole."
Sometimes the Holy Spirit will "slay people in the spirit" - "when He wants to minister to a person's spirit," mind, or body. "I heard the voice of God saying to me, 'You take care of your business and I'll take care of this' (going under God's anesthesia in order for Him to operate)" when we are ministering.

Yoder, Dr Rebecca Brown  Prepare for War                                    www.harvestwarriors.com
Chapter 15 The Double Minded Man shares that Satan tricks us by injecting thoughts into our minds beginning with the word "I".  For instance, if on Monday we accept Jesus as our savior/healer/baptizer, but on Thursday we ask again to be saved/healed/baptized, we may have been listening to/believing Satan's lies and not standing on/quoting out loud the facts of scripture.
Chapter 17 Deliverance warns us to steer away from exorcisms where the speaking of tongues is allowed during deliverance, because demons can speak in tongues.

'God, how can you use me? I am nothing. I make mistakes. I am far from perfect. Yet I have seen Your glory like a trail of fire following me everywhere. How? Why?'  He answered me! '
It's because you are willing to do anything I ask you to do!'  'Is that all, Lord? Then You could use anyone, any woman, who, like myself, would be totally surrendered to You!'  'Yes, My child, I could,' He answered.  'Then, Lord, raise up ten thousand women-women just like myself, who will pay any price, make any sacrifice, be totally obedient to Your will.'

Study in Romans 8:1-25 appears fundamentalist rather than Pentecostal regarding his teaching on salvation.  (Water baptism is the typical public ceremony of one's decision/testimony to accept what God says in the Bible.) Benny Hinn seems to teach that when one is born again that one receives 100% infilling of the Holy Spirit.  The necessary baptism in the Holy Spirit seems to be for commissioning.  Check it out.  He also teaches that healing is available for the body at the same time that one receives salvation and/or baptism.  In other words, the Holy Spirit is the Holy Spirit, bringing with it/Him all the benefits for spirit/body/mind

“What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?” scripture says in (1 Corinthians 6:19) Benny comments, “This is one of the most breathtaking statements in all the Bible. The Holy Spirit dwells in the believer’s body. He doesn’t dwell in the building in which you worship on Sunday. He doesn’t even dwell in your house where you live every day. He is in your body. You are His house! You are His temple! He dwells in you.”

"Few believers have discovered the difference between the external Christ and the indwelling Christ.” Referring to an incident reported in Acts 19, Pastor been said, “20 years had passed since the Day of Pentecost. Paul was in Ephesus. The 1st question he asked believers there was whether they had received the Holy Ghost since they had believed. The disciples at the church of Ephesus replied that they didn’t know anything about the Holy Ghost. Amazing! It had only been 2 decades, yet the Ephesians knew nothing about the greatest event in church history.”

“'You must be empowered by the Holy Spirit or you will not be a strong, healthy Christian. That is why the Lord Jesus commanded His disciples not to rest or leave Jerusalem until they were endued with the Holy Spirit’s power from on high. They obeyed, and the course of history was changed.'
Your life can be transformed, too, by learning to being filled and led by God, knowing that the Holy Spirit is your key survival and success for anyone who seeks to walk in faith and power...

Christians may be filled with the Spirit of God
It is their duty to be filled with the Spirit.
Why they are not filled with the Spirit.
The guilt of those who have not the Spirit of God, to lead their minds in duty and prayer.
The consequence that will follow if they are filled with the Spirit.
The consequences if they are not.

Youssef, Michael http://www.oneplace.com/Ministries/Leading_the_Way/ 10/24/2009 TV broadcast discusses that the majority of born-again Christians fail to receive or walk in the full power of the Holy Spirit baptism as they fail to DAILY empty self (of power grabbing) and receive (refill self with) His Spirit.
There must be NO area of our lives to which we cling to and do NOT replace with (refill with/relinquish to) God.  His Spirit MUST fill every nook and cranny of our lives, with NO vacancy for self NOR a demon.  [Psychiatrists have evicted God and tried to empower self.  WRONG.  This is hurtful (demonic) to both our human spirits and to our souls/minds.  The human self is selfish and greedy.  The self must die to self and live to Messiah Jesus.] This emptying of self and refilling with the Holy Spirit is a DAILY walk - NOT a one time baptism.  This is the mistake most Christians have made.  (Quick, let us repent and be ready; for our groom is on His way to collect His bride. Matthew 25.)

                                                Receiving the Holy Spirit for individual works
                prior to the birth/death/resurrection/Pentecost of Jesus Christ the Messiah.


Luke 1:41 NKJV
When Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, the babe (John) leapt in her womb and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.
Luke 1:67 Zacharias was filled
with the Holy Ghost
Luke 4:1
Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost

Weymann, Dorothy Mason    Thus Saith God's Word - Scripture Aids for Counseling    MD Productions, Greensboro, North Carolina
In section Second Coming, author cites the Matthew 25:1-13 story of the 10 maidens waiting for the bridegroom, where 5 had extra oil and 5 did not.
The extra oil symbolizes the baptism of the Holy Spirit, according to Dorothy. 5 born again virgins did have oil (the Holy Spirit/salvation), but not extra oil,
and thus were disqualified by the groom (Christ).
