S // SCRIPTURE
Select a verse from today’s reading
Acts 1:6 (NKJV) Therefore, when they had come together, they asked Him, saying, “Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?”
O // OBSERVATION
Why did this verse get your attention? Make a simple observation from the text
The disciples knew this time in history was huge. They just witnessed Jesus’ resurrection, which they didn’t see coming. Now there was no doubt Jesus was the prophesied Messiah.
This could be it. This could be the culmination of everything.
They knew something was up. They didn’t know what.
A // APPLICATION
How can I apply this to my life today?
I feel the same way the disciples did. Amazing things are happening in history. It’s easy to feel like this is the beginning of the end. It might be. The disciples weren’t able to pinpoint it and neither am I.
The answer then and now? Trust Jesus for those decisions. Receive the power needed for the moment and do what is before me.
P // PRAYER
Express yourself in prayer
Jesus, You know exactly where we are in history. I don’t. That’s okay. I need the presence of Your Spirit more than I need a timeline. I receive Your power today. Amen.
