The Holy Ghost Baptism is connected to the ministry of Jesus, and He promised believers that they would receive spiritual and supernatural power when the Holy Ghost dwells in them, and as a result, they would be The witnesses of His coming.

This Baptism is followed by several spiritual gifts, such as the working of miracles, supernatural comprehension, and the ability to bring to light the secret motives of a person’s heart. These gifts will most definitely enable you to minister to others in powerful ways that they have never experienced before in their life.

Remember, you are God’s child and He is your Father. He always wants to give you His best. So, let’s follow 10 Criteria along with some scriptures and experience the power of the Holy Ghost in your life!
