"And afterward,
I will pour out my Spirit on all people.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy,
your old men will dream dreams,
your young men will see visions.
Even on my servants, both men and women,
I will pour out my Spirit in those days.
I will show wonders in the heavens
and on the earth,
blood and fire and billows of smoke.
The sun will be turned to darkness
and the moon to blood
before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD.
And everyone who calls
on the name of the Lord will be saved;
for on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem
there will be deliverance,
as the LORD has said,
even among the survivors
whom the LORD calls."

~Joel 2:28-32~


The festival of Shavu'ot arrived, and the believers all gathered together in one place. Suddenly there came a sound from the sky like the roar of a violent wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. Then they saw what looked like tongues of fire, which separated and came to rest on each one of them. they were all filled with the Ruach HaKodesh* and began to talk in different languages, as the Spirit enabled them to speak.

~Acts 2:1-4 (CJB)~

*the Holy Spirit

  1. I took a few moments to imagine what it must have been like that day during Pentecost. I would guess it was startling, even frightening at first. But for those who remembered Joel's prophecy and recognized what was happening--what wonder!

  2. I admit that I don't read Joel very often. What a scary time that must have been.

    1. It's not a section of the Bible that a lot of us spend time in, is it? Thanks for stopping by and commenting
