Goals For 2015-Burn In Me!

John 20:21-23 "Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you. And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost: Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained."

Acts 2:3, 4 "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."
The fire of the Holy Ghost doesn’t just burn in the hearts of certain people. It is available to all who ask for and receive this baptism of fire from heaven above.

-You can be filled with this fire because it's available to all generations.

-You can be filled with love, joy, optimism, enthusiasm, energy, vitality, and have a oneness with God.

-You can brighten up the souls, warm up the hearts, and light up the lives of those around you.

-You can be a flame of goodness in this dark, cold, and troubled world.

-You can become a blazing torch for everyone to see even on bad days. 

-You can share this Holy Ghost Fire and light a candle inside of each person you meet as well.

So don’t let yourself be a smoldering ember in 2015, but let the world see your fire. Let your prayer be, "Holy Ghost Fire, burn in me!"
