Joel 2:12

It is turning away from sins and to Jesus
v14 - Turn to the Lord and receive blessings... - Joel 2:28-32
the outpouring of the Holy Spirit
The Outpouring of the Holy Spirit is Many Outpourings.
The outpouring is not a one time event
Acts 2:1-21 - Jerusalem
Acts 10:44-48 - The Gentiles
Acts 19:1-6 - Ephesus
God's timing is perfect when people receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit
It is the Lord's will for every believer to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit
John 1:25-34 - Jesus is the One who baptizes people in the Holy Spirit
The Outpouring of the Holy Spirit is a full blast for the last days
v29 - in those days - this is the last days when Jesus is going to return
3. The Outpouring of the Holy Spirit is for Everyone and Biblical
4. The Outpouring of the Holy Spirit Will Happen - v28
The supernatural is throughout the BIble
Speaking in tongues - Acts 2:1-7
Tongues is a supernatural language from Jesus
You receive tongues after you are saved...Speaking in tongues does not save you
Eph 2:8-9/Romans 10:9-10/Acts 2:21
