Daily Bible Reading – May 2021 God’s Word of Spiritual RenewalSample
May 23
Introduction
God sends the Holy Spirit to give power and courage to the apostles. They begin to tell the good news about Jesus, which people hear in many different languages. Some people are happy and excited, while others make fun of the Lord’s followers. Peter repeats the words of the prophet Joel regarding the outpouring of the Holy Spirit.
Today’s Scripture Reading: Acts 2:1-21
Today’s Key Verse: Acts 2:4
They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to talk in other languages as the Spirit enabled them to speak.
Reflect
How is the coming of the Holy Spirit described? How do you experience the presence of the Holy Spirit in your life? Is there someone you know who needs to hear the good news of God’s salvation?
Pray
Sovereign God, empower me with your Holy Spirit and teach me how to share your Word. May your Word go forth across cultures and in all the languages of the world so that people everywhere may learn of and experience your salvation. Amen.
