Book Cover & Preview Text
We must seek the baptism of the Holy Ghost because today the Church is staring helplessly at the misery of the people. Our backs are now against the wall because of all the ridicule of the Church by a dying world. It is time to rise up and wait on the Lord till we are endued with power from on high so that we may face this demonised generation.
The power of Pentecost is fully revealed only in those that are totally surrendered to the Holy Ghost. God will trust us with full Pentecostal power only if we are baptised by His Spirit. As long as we stop where the water is only to our ankles, or knees, or loins, we will continue to only see mercy drops not the showers of blessings. The hindrance here is us, not God; only we, by ourselves, can limit the Holy One of Israel!
Candidates for the baptism of the Spirit
Every believer in the Lord Jesus Christ is a candidate for the baptism of the Spirit. The only condition required of them is thirst for the Spirit. God is not really looking for perfection in us to baptise us in the Holy Ghost. If God required perfection, none of the 120 disciples that waited for Him in the upper room on the day of Pentecost would have qualified. They were fearful and did not even understand the kind of kingdom Jesus was establishing. Even up to the day Jesus was taken from them, they were asking Him if that was the time He would restore the kingdom to
We can see God is not really looking for perfection in us in order for us to be baptised in the Spirit in the fact that the feast of Pentecost is celebrated with two loaves of bread made with yeast.
And ye shall count unto you from the morrow after the sabbath, from the day that ye brought the sheaf of the wave offering; seven sabbaths shall be complete: Even unto the morrow after the seven sabbaths shall ye number fifty days; and ye shall offer a new meat offering unto the Lord. Ye shall bring out of your habitations two loaves of two tenth deals: they shall be of fine flour; they shall be baken with leaven; they are the first-fruits unto the Lord. (Leviticus 23: 15–17)
Yeast is a symbol of sin and imperfection. The two loaves of bread are symbolic of
Thirst for the Spirit
It is thirst for the Spirit that drives us to seek to be filled and baptised. How passionately we desire to be filled and baptised by the Spirit of God depends on us individually. Jesus’ call on the last day of the feast of tabernacles in

About the Book
THIS BOOK WILL INSPIRE YOU TO SEEK TO BE CONFORMED TO THE IMAGE OF CHRIST WHEN THE LORD SHALL BUILD UP ZION has been birthed out of a burden for the healing of the Church. This book focuses on the need for every Christian to be conformed to the image of Christ that they may reflect His glory on the earth. This hour is critical. There is urgent need to restore apostolic and prophetic ministries in the Church that her foundation may be according to the pattern in the word of God. For the Church to be perfected, the authority of the five-fold ministry that is being undermined or non-existent today ought to be restored. Those that have ears to hear, let them hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches. God will shake everything that can be shaken that those things that cannot be shaken remain (Hebrews 12: 27). Let us dig deep our roots into the word of God that we may stand. For the love of the habitation of our God, let us give ourselves unreservedly to the Lord that He may build His dwelling in the hearts of His people.
