Daily Bible Reading – May 2020 God’s Life-Giving Word of FaithPrzykład

May 31 Introduction Today marks the day when many Christians celebrate Pentecost. 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 quotes the words of the prophet Joel regarding the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. Today’s Scripture: 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. Today’s Reading Acts 2:1-21 Reflect How is the coming of the Holy Spirit described? Reread verses 16-21. (You may wish to compare these verses with Joel 2:28-32.) Where do you see the work of the Holy Spirit in the world today? 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.
