WORD FROM SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY
Acts 1:6-8 (NIV®)
“Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?” And He said to them: “It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
REFLECTION
IS JESUS LORD OF YOUR LIFE?
Jesus has been resurrected and is preparing His disciples for His departure. This is prime coaching time for these men who have seen Jesus crucified and brought back to life. But here’s what they really want to know: “We’ve heard about Your Kingdom. But are you going to get rid of the Romans? They’re taxing us like crazy, and it’s pretty humiliating.” Jesus replies, “The Father has set times and dates, but they are not for you to know. But I’ll tell you this. In a few days, you’re going to be empowered to be witnesses for me.” What about us? Are we more concerned about being empowered by the Holy Spirit to be advocates for Jesus throughout the earth, or knowing every date and detail of God’s future plans?
