When Jesus came to earth as a man, he knew that God had a plan for his life. Jesus lived a normal life in Israel. He became a Pharisee, Rabbi. Jesus taught the people as well as his disciples how to live and what to expect from God. This was nothing new, he just explained the Law to everyone. Jesus knew that he was going to die for our sins. He trusted God to bring to pass his will on earth. God raised Jesus from the dead to make him King of Kings and Lord of Lords. But Jesus’ job wasn’t through. There were final instructions for the disciples. Jesus told the disciple that when He ascended into heaven God was going to send the Holy Spirit to live inside of us. We would become kings and priest, prophets to God. He told them to wait for the Holy Spirit. So in the upper room, 120 disciples waited and prayed. The Holy Spirit came down and filled each person in that room. There was so much noise that people outside came to see what was going on. There were at less 3000 people gathered. They heard something they never heard before. The disciples were speaking in tongues, in a heavenly language. They also heard these disciples speak all the different languages of the world. For they were baptized in the Holy Spirit, just as God had promised on the Day of Pentecost.
