Daily Bible Reading – May 2021 God’s Word of Spiritual Renewal

DAY 13 OF 31

May 13

Introduction

Jesus tells his disciples to wait in Jerusalem until God gives them the Holy Spirit, empowering them to share the gospel everywhere. Then he is taken up to heaven. The apostles keep their eyes on the skies until two angels jolt them into action. The apostles choose a successor to Judas and meet and pray with other believers.

Today’s Scripture Reading: Acts 1:1-26

Today’s Key Verse:  Acts 1:8

“But when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, you will be filled with power, and you will be witnesses for me in Jerusalem, in all of Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”

Reflect

What instructions did Jesus give his disciples? Today’s reading reminds us that, even as we lift our eyes to the heavens in prayer, we are called to focus our activity here on earth in order to help bring about God’s peace and justice in our time. In what ways can you be a witness for Jesus and share the good news of God’s love wherever you are today?


Pray

Dear God, keep my eyes focused on what you would have me do today. Empower me to be a witness for you and share the Good News of Jesus Christ wherever I am. Amen.
