Acts 1:6-8 (NKJV) Therefore, when they had come together, they asked Him, saying, “Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?” And He said to them, “It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has put in His own authority. But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”
The Power is for the Restoration of the Kingdom
Acts 1:6-8 (NKJV) Therefore, when they had come together, they asked Him, saying, “Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?” And He said to them, “It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has put in His own authority. But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”
The Power is Maximized by Witness to Jesus
Acts 1:6-8 (NKJV) Therefore, when they had come together, they asked Him, saying, “Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?” And He said to them, “It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has put in His own authority. But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”
The Power is Most Experienced On Mission
Table Discussion: What would you dream about seeing God do this year through the power of the Spirit in you? What victories do you want to experience both internally in your personal life and externally in your ministry? What areas of your life can you experience more of God’s power by living more on mission and getting out of your comfort zone? What excites you about the possibility of ministry in these areas?
Table Discussion: How can you “hit the speed button” by making your walk with and witness to Jesus the priority of your day to day life? What shifts need to be made in your schedule? Where do you need to be more faithful in witness to Christ?
