IT WAS 9:00am ON SUNDAY MORNING … 120 people had gathered with the Apostles to worship the Lord. It had been 50 days since Jesus rose from the dead. 10 days earlier, Jesus ascended into heaven. He told His disciples to wait in Jerusalem for a gift the He would send to them. They would be “clothed with power from on high,” Jesus said. They had no idea what He meant by that, but they waited anyway.
At 9am on Pentecost Sunday, a powerful sound of wind thundered in the sky above Jerusalem; it caught everyone’s attention — it is described as a sound of a “mighty rushing wind” — a sound, but no wind — the loud sound falls from heaven and lands on one single house — the exact place where the Apostles were worshipping!
