Acts 1:8

Acts 1:8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and to the ends of the earth.


 In Acts 1:8 Jesus says that we can receive the power of the Holy Spirit, and then with this power of God’s Spirit, we can be witnesses in our own Jerusalem, wherever it is that we live, even to the ends of the earth. That might start with your next-door neighbor.

Lord, You are the source of all power and love. You created the earth and everyone on it, and it's Your desire that all the people You created will be saved. I am Your child, and You are for me.

I pray for Sara's baby--a boy!--that he will grow and thrive and be healthy. Thank you for this, the most wonderful of all gifts. I pray that he will grow up to know You. I pray that You will guide me in how to be a good aunt to him.

I pray for the Briody's--for Jay and Ann and John and Michael. I pray for your blessing upon them, and a spirit of love and reconciliation.

I pray for your protection over Dad and Mom as they travel in Europe today. I pray that they would sense Your presence, and have reason to think of You and reflect upon You. I pray for Your work in their lives, whatever it happens to be.

I pray for Lee, and our meeting tomorrow with the psychiatrist. It is in Your hands.

I pray for Your love and blessing and protection over my precious girls at school today.

In Your son's name I pray,

Amen
