God issues his command to the earth— God’s word speeds off fast! ~ Psalm 147:15 (CEB)
You will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth. ~ Acts 1:8 (CEB)
KEY IDEA:
God's message is for the whole earth.PRAYER:
Lord, thank you for loving the whole world so much that you sent your Son, Christ Jesus, into it to sacrifice his life in order to save ours. That really is good news to me. But I live in an insular world. My life revolves around the people on my island -- my family, my ancestors, my friends, my enemies... It's hard to move beyond that world. But you have given me an assignment to be a part of your worldwide witness. I'm not sure what that looks like for me but I am eager to be empowered by the Holy Spirit for that task. Amen.
