Now, the wind bloweth where it listeth, and you hear the sound thereof, but you cannot tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth: so is every one that is born of the Spirit (Jhn 3:8).
“There is that mysterious working of God’s Spirit within our lives and we cannot fully comprehend it or understand it, we just know it. We can see the effects of it. My mother used to ask me when I was a child, “Can you see the wind?” And I said, “Oh, yes, I can see the wind.” She said, “No, you can’t.” “Oh, yes, I can, I can see it out there. Look, it’s blowing the dust.” She said, “You’re seeing the results of the wind. You don’t see the wind.” I can see the results of the Spirit. I believe it, I know that the Spirit exists. I have never seen Him, but I can feel His effect upon my life, it’s very real. I can see His effects in the lives of those around me, it is very obvious. And so are they who are born of the Spirit, there is that mystic work of God’s Spirit that I can recognize, I can feel, I can see that work of God’s Spirit within me.” (Smith C2000)
Jesus emphasized hearing the supernatural sign. Anybody can make changes in how they choose to live; even atheists can show kindness and a change in lifestyle. People make up their minds to stop drinking and smoking.
Acts shows 3 detailed accounts of people speaking tongues when receiving the Spirit. It was no accident that the first instance was accompanied by a rushing mighty wind.
