Luke wrote two books of the New Testament under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. The first book is the gospel of Luke and the second is the one we are reading from today. We pick up in Acts 1, where Luke left off at the end of his gospel in chapter 24. Jesus has been risen from the dead and before He goes back into heaven (alive) from where He came; He gives a command! Jesus last command should be our first concern.
Questions to Ponder:
1. What is the command Jesus gives to His Apostles? What
were they to be witnesses of ? (See Luke 24:45-48)
2. What is the gift that Jesus said He would give to His
witnesses? What is the importance of the gift in the carrying
out of Jesus' command.
3. Was the gift only for the Apostles? (Eph.1:13; 1Cor.12:13)
Prayer: Thank you Jesus for sending the Holy Spirit not only to be with us, but to be in us (John 14:17-18). Thank you Holy Spirit for not only sealing us for the day of redemption, but for giving us power to share this redemptive message with others!
