PENTECOST SUNDAY

50 DAYS FROM DEATH/RESURRECTION OF
JESUS ON THE CROSS TO the DAY OF
PENTECOST IN THE UPPER ROOM
(Jesus died ; upper room = 50 days)
Pentecost means 50.
Pentecost is 50 days from Jesus death to ALL
in the Upper Room being filled with Holy Spirit.
And each spoke in other tongues as the Spirit
gave them utterance.                                                                                                                                                                                                                              Pentecost is celebrated on the seventh Sunday
after Resurrection Sunday /Easter (which is
also fifty (50) days after Resurrection
Sunday/Easter). Since its date depends on the
date of Resurrection Sunday/Easter,
Pentecost is a moveable feast, that is, the date
is not fixed. Resurrection Sunday/Easter + 49
days.
Pentecost Sunday also represents releasing of
Holy Spirit in power and demonstration. Acts
2:43 Then fear [awe, reverence] came upon
every soul, and many wonders and signs were
done through the apostles.
This would be a great time to gather with like-
minded Christians and allow Holy Spirit to be
invited into the group. Then wait and see what
He does, or what He wants done. He is never
dull or boring. He is always ready to release
what Father God wants done to those seeking
Him.

MARY (mother of Jesus) was an original pentecostal.
MARY, the mother of Jesus, was a powerful woman who
found great favor with God and was chosen to give birth to
the Long-awaited Messiah. Luke 1:26…
MARY was receptive to Word of God delivered by the
angel. MARY said, “Behold the maidservant of the Lord!
Let it be to me according to your word.” LUKE 1:38
(maidservant = servant, slave). [sometimes God tells us to
do something and we ask “how”. Jeremiah 33:3 says, “call
out to me and I will show you great; mighty things]                                                                                                                                                                                      MARY had been watched by God. He knew her
submissive, faithful heart; she walked in holiness. MARY
found favor in the eyes of God.
MARY was with Jesus all through His ministry, at the
Cross, and with Him after His resurrection. She was also
present in the upper room (Act 1:14)on the day of
Pentecost, making her one of the original Pentecostals
who received the baptism in the Holy Spirit. ACTS 2:1-4
MARY, being Jesus’ mother endured sweet and hard times
during his ministry on this earth. What a great example
she left for anyone wanting to be obedient to God with a
submissive heart.
