Baptism of the Holy Spirit

The focus of the International Assembly of the Church of God of Prophecy has been centered on the need to return to a dependence on the leading, directing, and inspiration of the Holy Spirit. Bishop Randall Howard, the General Overseer of COGOP reminded us this morning of our need to have our own "upper room" experience with God. We must walk in the Spirit and not trust in the abilities of the flesh. The flesh or the natural man can not meet the needs of humanity. All of us must be challenged to seek for a deeper walk with the Holy Spirit.
