Scripture: Acts 2:1-4
In Acts 2:1-4, the Day of Pentecost came and everyone there was empowered by the Holy Spirit. They were then charged with establishing a foundation for the New Testament church. That was their assignment and that was their call. But God\’s plan did not happen unopposed. It was dramatically opposed on many different fronts. Therefore, for their entire life, they would give themselves to establishing the foundation of the New Testament church. As they wound up the transitional age from the Old Covenant to the New, they produced the theology that would fill the New Testament. Their obedience brought great fruit! “Truth was, in the Old Testament, concealed, and in the New Testament, revealed.” Scripture came alive in their lifetime. How much is revelation a part of our paradigm? Do we have all the revelation we need for our time and season or do we not? Do we know the Jesus they knew? Is there an added dimension to the Jesus that winds up the church age that exceeds the One who began the church age? Are we prepared to recognize the Lord as the times and seasons shift?
- This is the 2nd month of the Gregorian year. The number 2 represents “second chance”.
- Pray that in this season, if you had not been responsive to His bidding in the past, the Lord will grant you a second chance in order to walk into the fullness of His calling for your life. Pray this for as many who have rejected their season of trial in the Body of Christ.
- Number 2 also represents “division or difference.”
- Pray that there will be a difference between the righteous and the unrighteous in every gate of society as the Lord begins to bring full expression of the words He spoke concerning changing the face of the continent of Africa to a shine. May those who have walked in obedience to this word shine like the sun in its full strength. (Judg 5:31)
