S - Act 2: (NASB)
17 “‘In the last days, God says,
I will pour out my Spirit on all people.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy,
your young men will see visions,
your old men will dream dreams.
18 Even on my servants, both men and women,
I will pour out my Spirit in those days,
and they will prophesy.
19 I will show wonders in the heavens above
and signs on the earth below,
blood and fire and billows of smoke.
20 The sun will be turned to darkness
and the moon to blood
before the coming of the great and glorious day of the Lord.
21 And everyone who calls
on the name of the Lord will be saved.'
O - This is at Pentecost where the disciples have just received the Holy Spirit as promised, and they now were speaking in all the tongues of the people who were gathered in Jerusalem. The people thought they were drunk but Peter stands up and rebukes them and speaks to the crowd letting them know that these men are not drunk but are fulfilling the promise of God that in the last days He will pour out His spirit on the them an they will prophesy. Jesus promised before he ascended that a help would come and provide wisdom and guidance on how to continue the mission to evangelize the world.
A - The application for me is to realize that we are still in the end game and that Holy Spirit is with us , guiding the way. We need to only call on the name of Jesus and seek the guidance of the Holy Spirit in all circumstances.
P - Dear heavenly Father, thank you for today's lesson, may it be sealed to my heart. Lord I repent for my past transgression in which I have grieved the Holy Spirit, I set out today to rid myself of all the side affects of my transgressions. Holy spirit guide me and protect me. I pray all this in Jesus name, Amen.
