As I begin this journal anticipating the great things that God will do and must do to establish His church, one desire that I have is to walk through the book of Acts and to mark down some thoughts and meditations that God would allow me to see and experience in New Life Church and its people.
ACTS 1 -- 3.11.08
Some gleanings in chapter 1
1. Jesus speaking about the Kingdom of God (v.3)
How wonderful that day will be when New Life gathers together for the first time in order to fulfill the desire of Christ by furthering the Kingdom of God through our lives.
2. Gift of the Holy Spirit (v.4-5)
What a longing I have to be filled with God's presence and anointing and power thru His Holy Spirit.
3. The Ascension of Christ (v.9-10)
To also look intently into the sky, but now for His return and only then will He return when His church shall be complete. Lord please let us be a part of seeing and leading many and hundreds of souls to the cross to find life, New Life.
4. Choosing of Mathias (v.12-26)
Lord please send us men that will take leadership roles in this church. Men who are filled with Your Spirit who strive to be satisfied only in you and seek to spread that enjoyment to others. And give us women who are godly and strive to boast only in the cross of Jesus Christ. Give us those kinds of people to help lead this church for your glory Lord! Amen!
