Holy Spirit Filled is the one I love.

In Acts 19 it reads that they found some believers of the Lord and asked them, “Did you receive the Holy
Spirit when you believed?” They answered, “No, we have never even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.”
Acts 8: People believed Philip as he preached the good news of the kingdom of God and in the name of Jesus
Christ, they were all baptized, both men and women. Simon (a former warlock) believed and was baptized.
And he followed Philip everywhere, astonished by the great signs and miracles he saw. (But they had not
received the Holy Spirit with the evidence of tongues, until Peter and John came). See below now verse 14.
14. When the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had believed in Jesus (by the preaching of Philip
above), they sent Peter and John to them. 15. When they arrived, they prayed for them that they might receive
the Holy Spirit, 16. Because the Holy Spirit had not yet come upon any of them; they had simply been baptized
in the name of the Lord Jesus. Then Peter and John placed their hands on them, and they received the Spirit..
~Keep in mind, that the baptism of the Holy Spirit is different than the baptism in water. If you carefully read in
Acts 10 below, you can see that these people WERE NOT BAPTISED IN WATER, but they had received the
HOLY SPIRIT FIRST with the evidence of speaking in tongues. Then later they were baptized in water. So,
whether you have or have not been baptized in water, this is not an issue subsequent to receiving the Spirit.
In Acts 10, verse 44: While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all those who were
listening to the message. 45 All the believers who came with Peter were amazed, because the gift of the Holy
Spirit had been poured out on the Gentiles also. 46 For they were hearing them speaking with tongues and
exalting God. Then Peter said, “Surely no one can refuse the water for these to be baptized who have
received the Holy Spirit just like we had, can they?” 48 And he then ordered them to be baptized
After the Holy Spirit fell in the beginning, the observers laugh and jeered even calling them drunks. Peter told
them that these men are not drunk and explain not be amazed at what you hear and saying, this gift is for you,
your children and all those who are far away. JOEL 2:28 said, "In the last days, I will pour out My Spirit on all
flesh, your sons and daughters will prophecy and young men see visions" and all this was to signify the end of
the end of all times before that glorious day of the RETURN of MESSIAH ! The Holy Spirit has been falling in
the same way in these last times.
"If I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is does not benefit. What is the outcome then? I will pray with the Spirit and I will pray in my mind also; I will sing with in Spirit and I will sing with my mind also. 16 Otherwise if you bless in the Spirit only, how will the one who fills the place of the ungifted say the “Amen” at your giving praise in the Spirit since he does not understand what you are saying? For you are praising God well enough, but the other person is not edified. I thank God, I speak in tongues more than you all; however, in the church I desire to speak five words with my mind so that I may instruct others also, rather than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue " ( I Corinthians 14:14–19).

What Should I Do Before Asking?
The Bible says that a wise man counts the cost before he begins to build a
tower (Luke 14:28). This beautiful experience of the baptism in the Holy
Spirit is a free gift, but you must be willing to submit to God to receive it.
You will be the one to make sounds and syllables from your mouth. You by
faith will need to step and start to speak. The Holy Spirit will never force
anyone, just like you were not forced to get saved. It was YOUR decision.
He never asks anything of you that you cant receive. Another way to say it
this is, He knows we came from the dirt, he knows are frame. But your
responsibility is to ACT IN FAITH WHEN YOU ASK, and it is YOUR job to
simply began to SPEAK in sounds, other than your own native language.
You may ask, "How can I speak in unknown language since you don't know
one?" Thats right, you must by faith mouth and began to make syllables
and sounds with your mouth, and then after you take this step of faith you
will find the Holy Spirit has imparted in you a language that will come out of
your spirit through your mouth.
How Do I Receive The Baptism In The Holy Spirit?
FIRST, Accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior . Then
ask Father God to baptize you in the Holy Spirit. The Bible says, If you ask
for the Holy Spirit, he will not give you a snake, but will indeed give you the
Holy Spirit (Luke 11:11).
SECOND, Receive the Holy Spirit after you pray this prayer below, by
acting in faith on what you have understood, you now have to believe
and as you believe and take the action, you begin to open your
mouth and utter sounds and syllables trusting God will fill it.
HE SHALL BAPTISE YOU WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT AND WITH FIRE
