The Fast of Daniel: Day 12

July 03, 2025 • Bishop Bira Joshua • Season 13 • Episode 19

Reach out to us!

This episode explores the fundamental spiritual principle of purification as a prerequisite for the infilling of the Holy Spirit. Drawing from the biblical account of Pentecost, we explore how the disciples prepared themselves through sanctification before receiving the Holy Spirit in fullness. We're currently on Day 12 of the 21-day Fast of Daniel, a spiritual journey focused on pleasing the Holy Spirit through intentional heart cleansing.

And then suddenly, from the sky, the sound of a strong wind filled the whole house and they were filled with the Holy Spirit.

Speaker 3: 0:25

When the wind starts to blow, everything will be moved. Everything's brought together when the wind starts to blow. Fast. Of Daniel, 21 days pleasing the Holy Spirit Hi there. May the God of the Bible bless your life, and he will, as he promised in his word, the one to every the disciples. They were together and they were filled with the Holy Spirit. Why? Because they prepared themselves for that moment, they sanctified, they separated themselves, as you know the scripture. Scripture says we cannot please two masters. How can you receive the clean spirit if your life is not pure, if your life is not clean? You only receive the spirit that's clean, that's pure, when you purify yourself.

Speaker 2: 1:50

The Holy Spirit is fire that purifies. Fast of Daniel 21 days pleasing the Holy Spirit.

Speaker 3: 2:08

Imagine yourself if I have this glass here, if it is dirty, I have here the clean water. How can I take this water and pour inside of a dirt cup? The Holy Spirit is this water. The cup must be clean so that we can. We can pour the water. The Holy Spirit is this water. And you know what? This is what you just saw.

Speaker 3: 2:57

God doesn't give by measure. He gives His fullness, everything to us. That's why they want to receive the Holy Spirit, because they prepare themselves. Now let us read the scripture Everyone who has this hope in him purifies himself, just as he is pure. We can read also like this Everyone who wants the Holy Spirit purifies himself, just as the Holy Spirit is pure.

Speaker 3: 3:43

If you find any impurities in your life, your heart, maybe you are holding grudges against someone, something that happened in the past. You have this evil, bad thoughts, sick mind. You have a sick mind. You are envious of people, you gossip. You live this life that does not please the Lord. Purify yourself. Let the glass be cleansed so that he can pour out his spirit upon your life. Well, this is our day, number 12.
