Witness in Jeruselem

Acts 1:8 NKJV

8 But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”

Acts 1:8 RVR60

8 pero recibiréis poder, cuando haya venido sobre vosotros el Espíritu Santo, y me seréis testigos en Jerusalén, en toda Judea, en Samaria, y hasta lo último de la tierra.

Be Authentic

Be sincere about where you’re at

Be honest with yourself and before God

Be humble to learn what you don’t know and grow in Him

Micah 6:8 NKJV

8 He has shown you, O man, what is good; And what does the Lord require of you But to do justly, To love mercy, And to walk humbly with your God?

Micah 6:8 RVR60

8 Oh hombre, él te ha declarado lo que es bueno, y qué pide Jehová de ti: solamente hacer justicia, y amar misericordia, y humillarte ante tu Dios.

Your friends and family need to hear the gospel (the good news of Jesus) but first they need to see it.

The gospel must be displayed in living justly, loving mercy, and walking humbly with God.\

A New Normal!

Acts 1:14 NKJV

14 These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brothers.

Acts 1:14 RVR60

14 Todos éstos perseveraban unánimes en oración y ruego, con las mujeres, y con María la madre de Jesús, y con sus hermanos.

The Holy Spirit poured out over them and filled them.

Look at the response of the people to their new normal:

Acts 2:7 NKJV

7 Then they were all amazed and marveled, saying to one another, “Look, are not all these who speak Galileans?

Acts 2:7 RVR60

7 Y estaban atónitos y maravillados, diciendo: Mirad, ¿no son galileos todos estos que hablan?

They were amazed at the response of these Jews speaking in a language they could understand.

When we allow a new normal in our lives and our homes, Those around us will notice Him in us.

Be Intentional

Ephesians 5:15–16 NKJV

15 See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, 16 redeeming the time, because the days are evil.

Ephesians 5:15–16 RVR60

15 Mirad, pues, con diligencia cómo andéis, no como necios sino como sabios, 16 aprovechando bien el tiempo, porque los días son malos.

As you live pay attention to what is happening around you and look for opportunities to redeem the time. Use every moment as an opportunity to point others to Christ.

Parent’s, there is no greater thing we can do for our children- but to pray for them and point them to Christ.

Pray Intentionally

Live Intentionally

Share Intentionally

Be Confident

Ephesians 6:18–20 NKJV

18 praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints— 19 and for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel, 20 for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.

Ephesians 6:18–20 RVR60

18 orando en todo tiempo con toda oración y súplica en el Espíritu, y velando en ello con toda perseverancia y súplica por todos los santos; 19 y por mí, a fin de que al abrir mi boca me sea dada palabra para dar a conocer con denuedo el misterio del evangelio, 20 por el cual soy embajador en cadenas; que con denuedo hable de él, como debo hablar.

Luke 12:12 NKJV

12 For the Holy Spirit will teach you in that very hour what you ought to say.”

Luke 12:12 RVR60

12 porque el Espíritu Santo os enseñará en la misma hora lo que debáis decir.
