Pouring Out of God’s Spirit
Acts 2:17
And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:
God tells us that a time will come when he will pour his Spirit out upon us. There will be prophecy by our sons and daughters. The young men will see visions and the older men will be sent dreams. What a wonderful time that will be. God will reveal himself further to all of us through these things.
We still have to be on guard and make sure that we are not falling into false prophecies and dreams. It is a serious thing with God and it should be for us too. Prophecy and dreams are not toys to play with. God uses them as his tools to communicate with us on a deeper level.
Be vigilant, be on guard. Keep your mind and heart pure and listen for God’s messages. Be prepared to accept his gifts as he gives them to you. If you are ever in doubt of a prophecy or a dream, ask God to reveal it to you again. He will. He always did that in the Bible. Read about those who received visions or dreams. God always gave it to them twice and most of the time three times to reinforce that the message was from him.
