Imagine if Jesus lived next door—healing, comforting, and guiding us instantly. Though He ascended to the Father long ago (John 16:28), He promised something even greater: the arrival of the Holy Spirit. At first, this seemed sorrowful to the disciples (John 16:6), but Jesus assured them it was for their benefit: “If I do not go away, the Helper will not come” (John 16:7).

Just before His ascension, Jesus told them to wait for “the promise of the Father” (Acts 1:4). Ten days later, on the Day of Pentecost, that promise was fulfilled. God poured out His Spirit on 120 disciples, marking the beginning of the New Testament Church (Acts 2:1–4). No longer was God’s power limited to a few—it became available to all He would call.

Peter proclaimed, “He poured out this which you now see and hear” (Acts 2:33), and 3,000 were baptized that very day (v. 41). But this was only the beginning. That same Spirit continues to work in those who respond to God’s call—empowering them to grow in character, love, and service.

Jesus told His followers, “Greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father” (John 14:12). Through the Spirit, we carry out His work today. We’re never alone—He promised, “I will not leave you orphans” (John 14:18).

On Pentecost, we celebrate more than an event—we rejoice in the living presence of Christ within us, helping us endure, grow, and look forward to the Kingdom to come (2 Corinthians 4:16–17).
