As regards an August Visitation... (like a Governor or President attending a function)


 4 And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me....8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

2And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.

- Acts 1: 4, 8; 2:2 KJV



- An august visitor is not received casually; there is prior preparation: 
“...commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait...”

(Wait = to be available or in readiness; to look forward to eagerly)

Like the disciples in the Upper Room, may we be in a posture of waiting in readiness for His arrival in this season. May we put in the needed spiritual alacrity and poise that beckons to Him...



- An august visitor doesn’t go to an event uninvited...or unexpected:

“but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me”

His seat is reserved, his name is on the program and there is an anticipation of his arrival.

May He find “room” in our lives in this season...



- An august visitor doesn’t arrive at an event unaccompanied or unannounced: 
“there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind”

Like the sirens and retinue announce his arrival in the natural, the elements do/did in the spiritual.

May we be sensitive to the stirring of the waters, events that lead to the event...



- An august visitor doesn’t go to an event without a message:

“But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you... and ye shall be witnesses...”

At a point in the event, He is introduced and mounts the stage to deliver his “keynote address”...


May our ears be attentive to His instructions and our hearts yielding to His impartations in this season...
