S – “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come on you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
Acts 1:8–9 CSB
O – The disciples are not told when Jesus was returning but how, what and where they should share the Gospel. The key is waiting for the Holy Spirit. Jesus gives specific areas to share and open-ended opportunities as well.
A – A couple of principles to apply today:
- Don’t do this in your own strength. Wait for and rely on God’s Spirit.
- With God’s Spirit, comes power that will lead and guide you.
- You are a “witness” who testifies (shares) about Christ.
- Be authentic, genuine and truthful in my “witness” of Christ.
- Be prepared to go to my daily circle, familiar circles, people I don’t like and people I have never met before.
R – Lord, I surrender today to you and invite your Holy Spirit to lead me today. I don’t want to do this in my own strength or get ahead of you. I want to be a witness to your love and life-changing power. Help me to discern h0w and when to do this today to share your love in any circumstance you lead.
