Pentecost Sunday

Acts 1:8 ESV
“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”

When the disciples in the upper room received the Holy Spirit on Pentecost, they received an anointing that inspired them to win thousands to Jesus Christ in a matter of days. Then the gospel spread throughout the known world like a blazing fire. The purpose of the Baptism in the Holy Spirit is to give us supernatural power in our witness. The Holy Spirit is the power of God that helps the church be who we are supposed to be in Christ.

Prayer:
Father, I want everything that you have provided to make me a more effective witness. Everything that you have provided to give my testimony power and anointing.
