The evanglist; then the leaders

 Acts 8:25

After Philip started the work in Samaria we see Peter and John take it over.  In God's Kingdom we are to share the work load and make sure it's about Jesus, not us.

Lord Jesus, please help us to empower others in the Kingdom of God.

God is still working when things look bad!

  Act 7:20-22 Moses was positioned by God, as a child, to prepare him for his future tasks.  Only God could have got a Jewish boy into  Pharaoh’s  house.  And there he learned a lot...and was even taken care of by his own Mother! Lord Jesus, help us to trust that You are working out Your plans and purposes even when we don't see it.

The Holy Spirit comes

  Act 2:1-4 Jesus said He had to leave in order for the Holy Spirit to come.  I have a theory that while Jesus walked the earth He had the Holy Spirit all to Himself but on the day of Pentecost (as described here) the Spirit was released on all the disciples that were gathered together.  It was a spectacular event with wind and what looked to be tongues of fire and what made it unique is they could speak in other languages. Lord Jesus, please help us to communicate with those that speak other languages.  I know You separated us by our languages because we were trying to be like god but at Pentecost You united us again.  Help us to remember You are God and we are just Your servants so You can use us to increase Your Kingdom.  Amen
