Proclaim in Every Language
Reflection
The disciples had received the great commission, and now they gathered in one place to pray and to wait and we see an extraordinary thing take place. Amid their waiting, God sends His Spirit and the Church is born. One of the many things that excites us about this passage is that those gathered nearby heard the message in their own language. It’s our prayer that the gospel is proclaimed in the heart language of all throughout the globe and that we communicate in a way that speaks with honor to every culture. We are believing that hearts will be won for Jesus!
Prayer
Lord send your Spirit on me today, inspire and help me as I seek to communicate Jesus in my context. Please send your Holy Spirit in power today upon your Church so that we can proclaim your gospel fully to every tribe and every tongue.
ACTS 2:1-6
1 When the day of Pentecost arrived, they were all together in one place. 2 And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting. 3 And divided tongues as of fire appeared to them and rested on each one of them. 4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance.
5 Now there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men from every nation under heaven. 6 And at this sound the multitude came together, and they were bewildered, because each one was hearing them speak in his own language.
