Testimonies of the Baptism with Holy Fire

I have written previously about the biblical holy fire baptism, and posted a series called The Holy Fire Series, in order to dispel myths and answer questions about this gift of God. As part of that series, I would like to share with you some testimonies of people who have received the holy fire baptism, according to Matt 3:11; Luk 3:16; 11:13; 12:49; Ac 1:5,8; 2:3-4, and Mal 3:3.

Let's begin with some video testimonies, which are always interesting to watch and hear what people experienced when they received the baptism with holy fire. Please click this link to see the Holy Fire Baptism playlist on my Youtube channel. I hope you will like, subscribe, and share, but most importantly pray to receive this baptism, if you have not already done so.

Now for testimonies of those who've received over the  past twelve years from 2012 to present.

As I imparted the holy fire to my wife, Jennifer, and the children, my hands went from being cool beforehand to very warm, even hot.  As I prayed for Faith, she felt two blazing balls of fire in her hands that we very heavy like lead balls, and she became very warm.  Charity and Jennifer felt the same thing.  They were amazed. Christopher said he felt the holy fire, especially on his back, and his hands became sweaty.  Hope did not feel much, but her hands got so sweaty that we could see them glistening wet as she held them out, receiving from the Lord.   

Charity testified, “As Daddy imparted the holy fire, it all began with a warm feeling.  I felt warmth in both pinky fingers.  A few minutes later I started to have a tingling sensation in my fingers, and they were paralyzed.  Then suddenly these round balls began to form in my hands. They were so heavy and felt like lead balls.  My arms were weighed down.  Later on this sharp, needle-like feeling came into some of my fingers, and I was sweating!”

On another occasion, Christopher said he felt the holy fire on his head, and then he felt a wind on the back of his neck. Faith and Charity said they felt heavy fireballs in their hands.

My nephew, Denis said he felt a tingling in his hands and every nook and cranny in his body. He also felt a pain at the center of both palms of his hands. 

A pastor named Rob said he felt tingling in his hands when he received.

Felicia said, “There was no tingling [in my hands] and it was warm. I also saw white and felt heat starting at the top of my head and down my neck.” 

A young man named Andrew said that when he received, he suddenly experienced a great heat from the Lord throughout his body, including his hands, and a tingling sensation on his forehead. 

Angel also said she suddenly felt a great heat throughout her body when she received the holy fire. 

Another Andrew said, "I felt empowerment and peace at the same time.  It was wonderful, but weird, because we usually don’t think of those two things being experienced together at the same time.” 

On another occasion, one lady felt warmth in her hands.  The other one felt the heat in her hands as well as the presence of the Lord inside her. She also began to wobble and found it difficult to stand straight.  

As a lady named Sarah received the holy fire, she swayed forward and backward, and seemed to find it difficult to stand. She said she felt a calm serenity inside of her.

Linu felt “felt like the Holy Spirit was searching his entire being from head to toe,” as he received prayer for the holy fire the first time. The second time he received the impartation, he definitely felt the fire in his hand, and he was thanking Jesus! 

Nella felt the heat in her hands and forearms.  She testified that as I prayed, she saw bright light going from person to person, and she felt peace and love. 

George felt like it was a “quiet time” inside as he received the impartation of holy fire, while Nik experienced a “fresh anointing.” 

One man, named Marian was overwhelmed by the power of the Holy Spirit. He had his hands lifted up and began to breathe in and out very deeply with his mouth open, as though something very intense was happening inside. It was amazing. He was lifting his head higher and higher and beginning to arch backward, but the pastor was holding him up, keeping him from falling back. He eventually could not stand and bowed before the Lord, going down to his knees with his face to the floor. Glory to God!

One man felt two heavy fire balls in his hands. Other people felt the “peace” that passes all understanding. One lady wept, another lady trembled. One person said she felt the Holy Spirit moving inside her.  

When Fotioni received the baptism with the Holy Spirit and fire he he felt peace. 

Albana testified joyfully that when she received the baptism with holy fire, she felt heat in her hands and on her head, as well as all throughout her body. She also simultaneously had a vision of yellow light like fire showering down upon her from above. 

Suphe was sweating so much that his shirt was soaking through. 

Feriha said she felt like her feet became weak and it was difficult to stand. She also felt great joy of the Lord inside her. 

Hari was standing and his whole body from head to toe became warm. He became weak and could not stand. He fell to his knees and bowed before the Lord in praise. Afterward he was very warm and praising God. 

I'm so grateful to the Lord for what He has done in my life and in the lives of these people whom I've prayed for over the past twelve years across the US and in various countries around the world. I will need eternity to adequately thank Him for all He has done. To God alone be all the glory, praise, and honor forever and ever.

I hope that this has edified and encouraged you that God still baptizes with the Holy Spirit and fire today, just as He did on the day of Pentecost. 

"As I looked, thrones were set in place, and the Ancient of Days took his seat. His clothing was as white as snow; the hair of his head was white like wool. His throne was flaming with fire, and its wheels were all ablaze. A river of fire was flowing, coming out from before him. Thousands upon thousands attended him; ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him. The court was seated, and the books were opened." (Dan 7:9-10)

Do You Want to Know Him?
If you want to know Jesus personally, you can. It all begins when you repent and believe in Jesus.  Do you know what God's Word, the Bible says?

“Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God, and saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.’” (Mar 1:14b-15).  He preached that we must repent and believe.

Please see my explanation of this in my post called "Do You Want to Know Jesus?"
