      Wow;what an amazing experience reading through the book. Thank you
    • 5/5
      This little book is a true Blessing from God. Easy to read, understand, and do. Unlike many, where the reader can get lost in the “weeds,” How to Receive and Minister the Baptism of the Holy Spirit delivers, and does it well. Those seeking the Baptism of the Holy Spirit will find that it’s not building the Pyramids, sending a rocket to the Moon, or doing brain surgery. Like all that the Lord does, He makes learning fun, easy, and eminently doable. This is a “tool” that all soul winners should have, and with it, give new Believers in Christ an added “boost” toward developing their walk with God. You will learn, and find, joy unspeakable, and never, ever, be alone again. The Holy Spirit will lead you into all things, and as your Counselor and Comforter, the adventure of Life will become more wonderful each day.

      Do I recommend this fine work? Yes, without hesitation. This is a superb read, and one worth sharing with your friends, as well as those you minister to!

    How to Receive and Minister the Baptism of the Holy Spirit - Joan Hunter

    Resources

    DO YOU HAVE A DESIRE FOR MORE OF GOD? Do you want to experience more of god’s power than you ever have in your life? Pray about receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit, because this is when the power of God hit our family.

    John Osteen once said, If you have a problem with speaking in tongues, don’t blame me, blame Jesus! He was the first one to talk about it!

    Jesus said these words:

    And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues. – Mark 16:17

    Neither Pentecostals nor the Charismatic Movement invented speaking in tongues…God did! When my parents received this wonderful gift from the Holy Spirit and spoke in tongues, it was so glorious and so powerful that they blazed a trail across the nation and eventually the whole world just because they wanted everyone to experience what they had received from Jesus!

    For three people who were totally against speaking in tongues, it was quite surprising that we developed a desire in our hearts for more of the power of God. But because we hungered for the baptism of the Holy Spirit, we were ready in our spirits and our hearts to receive from God. However, we didn’t understand what the baptism was and our lack of knowledge caused us to be afraid.

    We wanted to receive this endowment of power that Jesus promised. God puts the desire into each believer, but we have to be ready to submit to His will and commands before that desire can become a reality.

    God used an audio message on the baptism of the Holy Spirit by George Otis to teach us how to receive His work in our lives. He gave very simple instructions of some things anyone can do. When we did them, Jesus immediately baptized us with the Holy Spirit and we fluently spoke in tongues.

    The following pages contain the testimony of my mother and father, and also my own testimony of receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit. The last chapter shows how you can receive and minister the baptism of the Holy Spirit.

    Jesus said that if we know how to give good gifts to our children, then how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him! (Luke 11:13). As you read, receive the baptism for yourself and learn how to help others receive this wonderful Gift.

    The Testimony of

    Frances Hunter

    IN JANUARY OF 1971 Charles and I were in Hawaii and the Lord granted us a harvest of souls for His kingdom and new Christian friends. Some Hawaiian friends gave me two books called Crisis America and You Shall Receive by George Otis. I read Crisis America, which I thought was excellent, and almost threw away the other one as I had done with all other books of that nature, but didn’t.

    Somehow God’s Holy Spirit impressed me to keep the book, so I stuck it in my luggage and thought maybe I’d read it sometime after I got home…but I didn’t! I hid it! I didn’t want anyone to find that kind of literature in my house.

    In the summer of 1971 Charles and I went to the International Christian Booksellers Convention in Denver. We were at the booth where My Love Affair With Charles was being featured, just looking
